runway.lookups.handlers.cfn module

Retrieve a value from CloudFormation Stack Outputs.

The query syntax for this lookup is <stack-name>.<output-name>. When specifying the output name, be sure to use the Logical ID of the output; not the Export.Name.

If the Lookup is unable to find a CloudFormation Stack Output matching the provided query, the default value is returned or an exception is raised to show why the value could be be resolved (e.g. Stack does not exist or output does not exist on the Stack).
