Chapter 1. PowerShell Scripting Methods and Creating Custom Commands
In this chapter, we will cover:
Introduction
PowerShell as a scripting language will execute actions on your target environment. Scripting is not a new concept and PowerShell is definitely not a new language. However, PowerShell and SharePoint 2010 integrate very well. This integration allows administrators and developers to access not just a limited set of commands, but also to connect to SharePoint objects and libraries to take advantage of additional capabilities of SharePoint as a platform. To ensure that we are on the same page while reading this book and trying out various recipes, we'll start by setting up your environment and verifying the setup by running a test script. After all, SharePoint relies on components, most of which we're going to be directly interacting with, and having a consistently configured environment will help in reducing any potential integration issues.
Although we can author our PowerShell scripts in Notepad and execute them in a PowerShell command-line environment, you can experience more advantages from authoring and debugging your scripts by using rich authoring environments, such as PowerGUI or PowerShell ISE. In this chapter, we'll see exactly what the benefits of using those environments are.
Whether you are creating a PowerShell script in a professional scripting environment or calling an existing script from a command line, you'll quickly notice that a default set of commands is definitely not enough to manage and work with your SharePoint system. When you have the need to author scripts accessing various other aspects of SharePoint functionality, you will need to use the additional libraries available to facilitate custom or out-of-the-box functionality required. This is a very common scenario for developers when building custom solutions for a variety of platforms. PowerShell, as a scripting language, really takes advantage of this concept allowing you to call functions from SharePoint and third-party libraries. In this chapter, we'll take a look at exactly how you can access advanced SharePoint 2010 functionality using external libraries.
As you become more familiar with authoring PowerShell scripts, you will realize that you can create a collection of reusable functionality which can be shared with others. That's when you can take advantage of sealing your custom functionality in a portable and sharable way. We'll take a look at how you can package your custom scripts as custom PowerShell CmdLets, as well as how to create a custom PowerShell Snap-In.
Setting up your Virtual Machine and running a test script
In this recipe, we'll ensure your development environment is configured properly.
Getting ready
To complete the recipes in this book, it's assumed you're running a system with SharePoint 2010 Server Standard installed. If not, it is recommended you download and install the 2010 Information Worker Demonstration and Evaluation Virtual Machine (RTM) Virtual Machine environment, if you do not have a compatible system set up. For the most current link to download this virtual environment, search Microsoft Download Center with the keyword 2010 IW demo RTM.
By downloading the preceding environment, you will ensure all of the configurations and setups have been performed and your system is ready for using PowerShell with SharePoint. Whether you're using your own or a downloaded Virtual Machine, let's ensure PowerShell is enabled in your environment.
How to do it...
Let's see how you can get your virtual environment configured and run your first script using the following steps:
Tip
Ensure this policy is reverted back on your production environments to avoid the risk of malicious script execution.
How it works...
On Windows 2008 Server, PowerShell script execution policy is set to restrict script execution by default. As an administrator, you can choose to allow script execution by calling the Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted command.
Note
For more information on options available for script execution policy and how it affects your environment, search TechNet with the keyword Set-ExecutionPolicy.
Once script execution is not restricted, we run a PowerShell command enumerating all of the SharePoint sites with the http://intranet.contoso.com URL. This assumes you have an existing site collection with such a URL. If you're using the downloadable environment from above, the site collection will be already set up for you. If you're running a site collection with a different URL, feel free to replace the value in this example.
There's more..
In this example, we assumed you were running a Virtual Machine downloaded from the Microsoft download site with all of the pre-set options. In this case, you may see that the execution policy has already been set to unrestricted. In this case, you don't need to set the value again.
