I am looking for cloud-init/cloud-config syntax documentation. I have been through https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CloudInit
I need to know what all namespace are supported by cloud-init. e.g. "byobu_by_default" is a valid resource where as "This_is_great" is not a valid resource.

I did extensive googling but could not find any documentation Also I had been through the “examples” directory and it was helpful but I wanted above said documentation.

Thanks.

I've been searching for a while now, and was disappointed to see no answers to your question. Here are the best I've found so far, one of which you mentioned:

http://cloudinit.readthedocs.org/en/latest/topics/examples.html

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CloudInit

You can override anything in /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg, too, so that can be a useful example.

Edit: This is probably the example you were talking about. According to multiple sources, it should be mostly complete. Here's the full list for anyone else who hasn't found them yet.
