If you are integrating this function with your own project or want to manually load the module as needed, then save the
|
||||||
|
module and manifest file wherever it is convenient for you. If you want to auto-load this function so it is available
|
||||||
|
automatically in any PowerShell session then you *must* extract it to a directory named **wol-magicPacket** somewhere
|
||||||
|
defined in your `PSModulePath` depending on your use-case. More information can be found directly from
|
||||||
|
Microsoft [here](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/microsoft.powershell.core/about/about_modules?view=powershell-7.1#short-description)
|
||||||
|
.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Example: Auto-load for current user
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Here's a complete example assuming I want the module automatically available for all sessions running under my user
|
||||||
|
account:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```powershell
|
||||||
|
# download version 1.1
|
||||||
|
Invoke-WebRequest -Uri https://git.asifbacchus.dev/asif/ps-cmdlet-wol/archive/v1.1.zip -OutFile "$Env:DOWNLOADS\ps-cmdlet-wol.zip"
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Get PSModulePath
|
||||||
|
# You should see a user-level modules path in the form of either:
|
||||||
|
# C:\Users\Username\Documents\WindowsPowerShell\Modules -OR-
|
||||||
|
# C:\Users\Username\Documents\PowerShell\Modules
|
||||||
|
$Env:PSModulePath
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# change directory to the appropriate path from above
|
||||||
|
Set-Location "C:\Users\Username\Documents\WindowsPowerShell\Modules"
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# extract files and rename directory
|
||||||
|
Expand-Archive -Path "$Env:DOWNLOADS\ps-cmdlet-wol.zip" -DestinationPath .\
|
||||||
|
Rename-Item -Path ps-cmdlet-wol -NewName wol-magicPacket
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# confirm: you should see a directory named 'wol-magicPacket'
|
||||||
|
gci
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# confirm: you should see the manifest and module within the wol-magicPacket folder
|
||||||
|
gci .\wol-magicPacket
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Now, close and re-open PowerShell and the `Send-MagicPacket` function should be available:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```powershell
|
||||||
|
Get-Command Send-MagicPacket
|
||||||
|
```
