# PowerShell Scripts

These are the scripts that go into $MyPSScriptRoot which is part of my $env:PATH.

The development of these is documented in my blog: https://blog.lksz.me

They are provided 'as is' for your review and for your reuse.

This envrionment can be installed using one the following options:
### The Short, yet safer way
```PowerShell
iwr https://lksz.me/pwsz | iex
```

This sets up the `$PROFILE` file, and initilizes the default dir `$MyPSScriptRoot` with a git clone of this repo.
The `https://lksz.me/pwsz` actually points to the [`Setup-Profile.ps1`](base/Setup-Profile.ps1) script, which means, that after you have the `Scripts` directory setup, you can call `Setup-Profile` to update the `$PROFILE` after the `Setup-Profile.ps1` has been modified (or updated via `git pull`).

### The somewhat Short, but with control option
```PowerShell
$sfw=1; iwr https://lksz.me/pwsz | iex; _setup [-sudo] [-Force] [-NoGitClone] [-GitURL <alternative git URL>] [-WhatIf] [-Confirm] [<CommonParameters>]
```

The key here is `$sfw=1`, which can be substitued with the more verbose `$SetupFromWeb=1`, this let's the [`Setup-Profile`](base/Setup-Profile.ps1) script know to just load it's content, but allow you to manually call it's internal function via `_setup`

### The 'I don't trust one liners, what's going on ?!?' option
You can always clone the git repo first, and only then run the [`Setup-Profile.ps1`](base/Setup-Profile.ps1) script.
