SAS 025 – In the Lab – Intro to PowerShell
In this lab episode I run through a recent PowerShell project. This is a very basic example will give you an idea what can be done with PowerShell. The YouTube video for this episode can be found at https://youtu.be/SXv-ZVV9ioc.
As promised I have included the final scripts below.
##########################demo.ps1#####################
#Define variables
$webdata = “”
$complete = “”
#scrape website content to variable
$webdata = Invoke-WebRequest “www.sysadminshow.com”
while ($complete -ne “1”)
{
if($webdata -like “*SysAdmin Show*”) # check for specific string
{
write-host “Found it!”
$complete = “1”
Start-Process calc.exe
}
else
{
write-host “Not Ready”
}
Start-Sleep -Seconds 1
}
####################launch.bat#####################
powershell -WindowStyle Hidden “c:\scripts\demo.ps1”
