# PowerShellWixExtension
A Wix Extension for running PowerShell scripts
## NuGet Package
[](https://www.nuget.org/packages/PowerShellWixExtension/) [](https://ci.appveyor.com/project/DavidGardiner/powershellwixextension)
All ready to add to an existing Wix project. Grab the latest version from https://www.nuget.org/packages/PowerShellWixExtension/
## Getting Started
1. Add a reference to the PowerShellWixExtension.dll in your Wix Setup Project (NuGet package recommended)
2. Add namespace to .wxs file
```xml
```
4. To execute a .ps1 file that ships with the project
```xml
```
5. To execute inline script use
```xml
```
## Notes
### Custom sequences
You can customise when a set of scripts are run by adding your own `` element inside your `` element. eg.
```xml
NOT Installed
```
The four defined actions are:
1. `PowerShellScriptsDeferred`
2. `PowerShellScriptsElevatedDeferred`
3. `PowerShellFilesDeferred`
4. `PowerShellFilesElevatedDeferred`
### Inline Scripts
* Be aware that if your inline script uses square brackets \[ \], you'll need to escape them like [\\[] [\\]] otherwise they will be interpreted as MSI properties (unless that is what you wanted!)
