# Simple Templates
This project is aimed to create set of simple PowerShell cmdlets in C# that would assist developers in writing PowerShell modules.
## Commands
Planned list of commands is:
- `New-STBasicFunction` - creates simple PowerShell function
- `New-STAdvancedFunction` - create PS function with begin, process and end blocks
- `New-STTestCase` - creates a Pester test case
Ultimately, all of this will be followed by `New-STModule` and maybe more (pipelines, documentation, etc.)
Project is done in scope of Hacktoberfest 2022

## Initial project creation
Run `dotnet` commands:
```batch
dotnet new -i Microsoft.PowerShell.Standard.Module.Template
dotnet new psmodule
dotnet new gitignore
dotnet build
```
Then, verify it in PowerShell:
```powershell
Import-Module '.\bin\Debug\netstandard2.0\Simple_Templates.dll'
Get-Module 'Simple_Templates'
Test-SampleCmdlet 12
```
It should generate output similar to this:
