puter-list - list VMs
puter list [--node name] [-v|--verbose]
List all VMs managed by puter. Displays each VM's name, node, status, and IP address in a table format.
When any VM is in "error" status, an ERROR column is shown with truncated error messages (60 characters max). Use --verbose to show full error messages.
Status values are color-coded when output is a terminal: running (green), error (red), stopped (dim), creating, starting, stopping (yellow). Colors are automatically suppressed when output is piped or redirected to a file.
Output columns:
$ puter list NAME NODE STATUS IP myvm local running 10.0.0.10 web local stopped -
With a VM in error state:
$ puter list NAME NODE STATUS IP ERROR myvm local running 10.0.0.10 badvm local error - image "nonexistent:latest" not found...
