Monitor all stack resource progress live (Interrupt with Ctrl-C):
aws-cloudformation-stack-status --watch --region $region --stack-name $stack
The --stack-name is optional, and multiple stacks can be monitored
together:
watch aws-cloudformation-stack-status --watch $webstack $dbstack $dnsstack
One time display of latest status for each stack resource:
aws-cloudformation-stack-status --region $region --stack-name $stack
This script does require that you have already installed and configured the aws-cli.
