Easy Powershell development

PoshBuild is a set of tools for Powershell snap-in developers. It includes:

• A Cmdlet help file generator.
• A display format information generator.

Those tools are available as MSBuild tasks so these files can be generated as part of a build process.

How it works

First you need to read about how to provide information to PoshBuild about your Cmdlets, and about your .NET types you intend to manipulate in Powershell. Then you can either read about using the PoshBuild MSBuild tasks, or about the generator classes available to you if you want to write your own tools.

IronCow ships with a Powershell snap-in whose help and display format files are generated with PoshBuild.
