# Poke
(build CI is broken, apologies)
[](https://ci.appveyor.com/project/oising/poke)
### PowerShellGallery
[https://www.powershellgallery.com/packages/poke/]
Here you'll find examples of how to peek and poke objects using the Poke module.
### Version History
* 1.1.2 - fixes sort alias clash on *nix (thanks @fsackur)
* 1.1 - adds support for invoking methods with ref/out parameters ([ref])
* 1.0.2 - readonly fields are now settable like regular fields
* 1.0.1 - Compatibility fixes for v3 beta / .net 4.5
* 1.0 - Initial release
### Examples
```powershell
# peek at a Job instance using pipeline syntax
$job = start-job { 42 } | peek
$job | get-member
```
which results in the new extended output format for get-member:
```

You can call methods, set fields and properties (if they have setters - it doesn't matter if they're private, protected or internal.)
You can proxy Types as well as instances:
```powershell
# proxy a public type by piping it
$type = [text.stringbuilder] | peek
```
```

DefaultCapacity internal Field* int DefaultCapacity
MaxCapacityField private Field* string MaxCapacityField
MaxChunkSize internal Field* int MaxChunkSize
StringValueField private Field* string StringValueField
ThreadIDField private Field* string ThreadIDField
```
Peeking at non-public types:
```powershell
# nonpublic types can't be specified using type literal
# syntax, so in this case you should use the -name parameter
$type = peek -name MS.Internal.Xml.XPath.XPathParser
# nonpublic objects returned from methods, properties or fields
# are not "peeked" themselves, so you may need to peek the return value:
$manager = peek (start-job { 42 } | peek).throttlemanager
$manager.throttlelimit = 64 # bump throttle limit ;)
```
Of course, you can peek instances too:
```powershell
$sb = new-object system.text.stringbuilder
$proxy = peek $sb
$proxy | gm
```
```
