.SYNOPSIS This function provides the logging functionality of the script. .DESCRIPTION Logging .PARAMETER string The string to be written to the log file. .PARAMETER isError Boolean value to signify exception / log it / terminate script. .OUTPUTS Logs all activities and backs up all original data to the log folder directory. .EXAMPLE Out-LogFile -string "MESSAGE" -isError BOOLEAN #> Function Out-LogFile { [cmdletbinding()] Param ( [Parameter(Mandatory = $true)] $String, [Parameter(Mandatory = $false)] [boolean]$isError=$FALSE, [Parameter(Mandatory = $false)] [boolean]$isAudit=$FALSE ) # Get the current date [string]$date = Get-Date -Format G # Build output string #In this case since I abuse the function to write data to screen and record it in log file #If the input is not a string type do not time it just throw it to the log. if ($string.gettype().name -eq "String") { [string]$logstring = ( "[" + $date + "] - " + $string) } else { $logString = $String } # Write everything to our log file and the screen $logstring | Out-File -FilePath $global:LogFile -Append #Write to the screen the information passed to the log. if ($string.gettype().name -eq "String") { Write-Host $logString } else { write-host $logString | select-object -expandProperty * } #If the output to the log is terminating exception - throw the same string. if ($isError -eq $TRUE) { #Ok - so here's the deal. #By default error action is continue. IN all my function calls I use STOP for the most part. #In this case if we hit this error code - one of two things happen. #If the call is from another function that is not in a do while - the error is logged and we continue with exiting. #If the call is from a function in a do while - write-error rethrows the exception. The exception is caught by the caller where a retry occurs. #This is how we end up logging an error then looping back around. write-error $logString #Now if we're not in a do while we end up here -> go ahead and create the status file this was not a retryable operation and is a hard failure. if ($global:ThreadNumber -gt 0) { out-statusFile -threadNumber $global:ThreadNumber } disable-allPowerShellSessions if ($isAudit -eq $FALSE) { Start-ArchiveFiles -isSuccess:$FALSE -logFolderPath $logFolderPath } exit } } |
