I created this function to generate a new PowerShell Script template. It will prompt for the name of the script you want to create (don’t need to add the .ps1 extension) and the email (don’t need to add email) then it will create the template in the C:\Scripts directory (Dir should already exist)
- Function New-Script
- {
- $strName = $env:username
- $date = get-date -format d
- $name = Read-Host "Filename"
- if ($name -eq "") { $name="NewTemplate" }
- $email = Read-Host "eMail Address"
- if ($email -eq "") { $email="youremail@yourhost.com" }
- $file = New-Item -type file "$name.ps1" -force
- $template=@"
- ###########################################################################"
- #
- # NAME: $name.ps1
- #
- # AUTHOR: $strName
- # EMAIL: $email
