Real World PowerShell
Real World PowerShell
About the Book
PowerShell is an extremely versatile cross-platform shell / language. This quick read will explore actual advanced functions and scripts written to accomplish everyday tasks. Problems, solutions, explanations and code are provided. Everything covered can run wherever PowerShell 5 or 7 runs - Linux, Mac, Windows, even Raspberry Pi.
The writing is geared toward intermediate to advanced users of PowerShell with an emphasis on APPLYing PowerShell - not learning the basics of PowerShell. The reader should have a fundamental understanding of Advanced Functions, JSON and PSCUSTOMOBJECTs to fully benefit from the material.
The book begins with a brief overview of PowerShell, Advanced Functions, and JSON. It then progresses through various scenarios, explaining a situation / problem and how PowerShell was employed to ameliorate it. Code examples interact with VMware (Virtual Center, ESXi and SRM), AWS, Kubernetes, and Ansible. At the end we'll even have some fun with a NASA API.
