cf-cli plugin to perform reverse lookups against service instance GUIDs

background

Pairs nicely with problematic BOSH service instances 👌👩‍🍳

This plugin aims to map between how BOSH references service deployments, e.g. service-instance_GUID, and how they're referenced in Cloud Foundry. It can be frustrating when tools like the bosh-cli and Prometheus/Alertmanager start yelling about a service instance barfing, but you have to spend time going through this whole riggamarole of looking up the service to see which org/space it belongs to, etc.

With this plugin, as long as you're logged into the same Cloud Foundry installation as the service-instance_GUID you're trying to find, this will go through the whole riggamarole of looking up the org/space of the service instance for you.

usage

# get details on a service instance by it's GUID alone
cf rsl -s 8891ec47-4041-496b-af36-10d89c9513a6

# passing BOSH's default 'service-instance_' prefix is acceptable, too
cf rsl -s service-instance_8891ec47-4041-496b-af36-10d89c9513a6

# you can pass '-s service-instance_GUID' multiple times
cf rsl -s service-instance_8891ec47-4041-496b-af36-10d89c9513a6 -s bbaa77df-52e7-4d6a-8c86-d07a7c93ab82

# optionally, multiple different presentation formats can be specified
cf rsl -s xyz --format plain-text (default)
cf rsl -s xyz --format table
cf rsl -s xyz --format json

# or both, why not
cf rsl -s xyz --format table --format json

--format plain-text:

d6bb8908-a8f8-46b9-9c21-3069cdb939ef
small-redis
grundlework
scratchpad

--format json:

[
  {
    "organization": {
      "name": "grundlework"
    },
    "service": {
      "guid": "d6bb8908-a8f8-46b9-9c21-3069cdb939ef",
      "name": "small-redis",
      "space_guid": "8a90a486-6a40-4709-b65f-efe6705bdc8f"
    },
    "space": {
      "name": "scratchpad",
      "organization_guid": "d63feced-41d1-44d7-ba9b-8d062975313b"
    }
  }
]

--format table:

|             SERVICE GUID             |   SERVICE   |     ORG     |   SPACE    |
