PowerShell Parameters for Modules

One for the personal digital scrapbook. When writing PowerShell modules I always have to dig this up as reference material and I’ve added an example as well.

Obviously you need to  Export-ModuleMember  when you’ve created the function and save the file as .psm1 to identify it as a PowerShell Module.

After writing my personal use modules, I usually want them to load automatically when I fire up a PowerShell console so I add them to [Environment]::GetFolderPath('mydocuments') + "\WindowsPowerShell\Microsoft.PowerShell_profile.ps1"  usually in a try/catch block.
