# ps-sh-helpers

`ps-sh-helpers` is a template for creating your library PowerShell and Bash helpers. It is very useful for Windows users that wants take the best of WSL Bash and integrate it with PowerShell.

`ps-sh-helpers` organize helpers in OS-dependent from `os/.*` files and loads program-dependent from `programs/.*` files. It is initialized at `.bashrc` by loading `init.sh` or at `PowerShell_profile.ps1` by loading `init.ps1` (see diagram below).

program-dependent["
programs/[program].bash
...
"]
OS-dependent["
os/win.bash
os/ubu.bash
...
"]

bashrc --> |"loads"| sh-init
sh-init --> |"loads if program exists"| program-dependent
sh-init --> |"loads if running at OS"| OS-dependent
sh-init --> |"bash alias to each function at"| ps-init
```

program-dependent["
programs/[program].ps1

os/ubu.ps1
...
"]

psprofile--> |"loads"| ps-init
ps-init --> |"loads if program exists"| program-dependent
ps-init --> |"loads if running at OS"| OS-dependent
ps-init --> |"bash alias to each function at"| sh-init
```

## How to install

You can use the Bash commands below to fetch, install, and setup `ps-sh-helpers` to be loaded in your `.bashrc`:

```bash
git clone https://github.com/alanlivio/ps-sh-helpers ~/.ps1-sh-helpers
echo "source ~/.ps-sh-helpers/init.sh" >> ~/.bashrc
```

You can use the PowerShell commands below to fetch, install, and setup `ps-sh-helpers` to be loaded in your `profile.ps1`:

```ps1
git clone https://github.com/alanlivio/ps-sh-helpers ${env:userprofile}\.ps1-sh-helpers
$contentAdd = '. "${env:userprofile}\.ps-sh-helpers\init.ps1""'
# to setup WindowsPowerShell
Set-Content "${env:userprofile}/Documents/WindowsPowerShell/Microsoft.PowerShell_profile.ps1" $contentAdd
```

Pay attention that to setup a PowerShell >= 6, the last line should be:
`Set-Content "${env:userprofile}/Documents/PowerShell/profile.ps1" $contentAdd`
