# Subatomix.Build.Packaging.PowerShellModule

PowerShell module packaging support for .NET

[SDK-style](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/tools/csproj)

projects.

## Status

[![Build](https://github.com/sharpjs/Subatomix.Build.Packaging.PowerShellModule/workflows/Build/badge.svg)](https://github.com/sharpjs/Subatomix.Build.Packaging.PowerShellModule/actions)

[![NuGet](https://img.shields.io/nuget/v/Subatomix.Build.Packaging.PowerShellModule.svg)](https://www.nuget.org/packages/Subatomix.Build.Packaging.PowerShellModule)

[![NuGet](https://img.shields.io/nuget/dt/Subatomix.Build.Packaging.PowerShellModule.svg)](https://www.nuget.org/packages/Subatomix.Build.Packaging.PowerShellModule)

In use by a handful of modules.

## Features

- Support for script, binary, or mixed modules

- Module manifest templates with `{VersionPrefix}`, `{VersionSuffix}`, and `{Copyright}` placeholders

- Run and debug with F5 in Visual Studio

- Support for automated build, test, and publish

## Usage

Just add a reference to this package.  Now `dotnet pack` and Visual Studio Pack

will produce a PowerShell module.  Here is a minimal example `.csproj` file:

```xml

  

    netcoreapp3.1

    true

  

  

    

    

  

  

    

  

```

For a simple example, see this repository's

[test project](https://github.com/sharpjs/Subatomix.Build.Packaging.PowerShellModule/tree/master/test).

It can serve as a template for new PowerShell module projects.

For a more complete, real-world example with automated tests, see my

[PSql](https://github.com/sharpjs/PSql) module.
