NAME

       pibootctl-get - pibootctl manual

SYNOPSIS

          pibootctl get [-h] [--json | --yaml | --shell] setting [setting ...]

DESCRIPTION

       Query  the  status of one or more boot configuration settings. If a single setting is requested then just
       that value is output. If multiple values are requested then both setting names  and  values  are  output.
       This applies whether output is in the default, JSON, YAML, or shell-friendly styles.

OPTIONS

       setting
              The name(s) of the setting(s) to query; if a single setting is given its value alone is output, if
              multiple settings are queried the names and values of the settings are output.

       -h, --help
              Show a brief help page for the command.

       --json Use JSON as the output format.

       --yaml Use YAML as the output format.

       --shell
              Use a var=value output format suitable for the shell.

USAGE

       The  get  command  is  primarily  of use to those wishing to build something on top of pibootctl; for end
       users wishing to query the current boot configuration the status command is of more  use.  When  given  a
       single  setting  to  query  the  value  of that setting is output on its own, in whatever output style is
       selected:

          $ pibootctl get video.overscan.enabled
          on
          $ pibootctl get --json video.overscan.enabled
          true

       When given multiple settings, names and values of those settings are both output:

          $ pibootctl get serial.enabled serial.baud serial.uart
          +----------------+-------------------------+
          | Name           | Value                   |
          |----------------+-------------------------|
          | serial.baud    | 115200                  |
          | serial.enabled | on                      |
          | serial.uart    | 0 (/dev/ttyAMA0; PL011) |
          +----------------+-------------------------+
          $ pibootctl get --json serial.enabled serial.baud serial.uart
          {"serial.enabled": true, "serial.baud": 115200, "serial.uart": 0}

       Note that wildcards are not permitted with this command, unlike with the status command.
