<helpItems xmlns="http://msh" schema="maml"> <command:command xmlns:maml="http://schemas.microsoft.com/maml/2004/10" xmlns:command="http://schemas.microsoft.com/maml/dev/command/2004/10" xmlns:dev="http://schemas.microsoft.com/maml/dev/2004/10"> <command:details> <command:name>Invoke-Build.ps1</command:name> <maml:description> <maml:para>Invoke-Build - Build Automation in PowerShell</maml:para> </maml:description> </command:details> <maml:description> <maml:para>The command invokes so called tasks defined in a PowerShell script. Let's call this process build and a script with tasks build script. A build script defines parameters, variables, and one or more tasks. Any code is invoked with the current location set to $BuildRoot, the script directory. $ErrorActionPreference is set to 'Stop'. SCRIPT PARAMETERS Build scripts define parameters as usual using the param() block. On calling, specify them for Invoke-Build as if they are its own. Known issue #4. Specify script switches after Task and File. The following parameter names are reserved for the engine: Task, File, Result, Safe, Summary, WhatIf COMMANDS AND HELP The following commands are available for build scripts: task (Add-BuildTask) exec (Invoke-BuildExec) assert (Assert-Build) equals (Assert-BuildEquals) remove (Remove-BuildItem) property (Get-BuildProperty) requires (Test-BuildAsset) use (Use-BuildAlias) Confirm-Build Get-BuildError Get-BuildSynopsis Resolve-MSBuild Set-BuildFooter Set-BuildHeader Use-BuildEnv Write-Build Write-Warning [1] [1] Write-Warning is redefined internally in order to count warnings in a build script and nested scripts. Warnings in modules are not counted. To get commands help, dot-source Invoke-Build and then call help: PS> . Invoke-Build PS> help task -full SPECIAL ALIASES Invoke-Build Build-Parallel These aliases are for the scripts Invoke-Build.ps1 and Build-Parallel.ps1. Use them for calling nested builds, i.e. omit script extensions and paths. PUBLIC VARIABLES $OriginalLocation - where the build is invoked $WhatIf - WhatIf mode, Invoke-Build parameter $BuildRoot - build script location, by default $BuildFile - build script path $BuildTask - initial tasks $Task - current task $Job - current job $BuildRoot may be changed by scripts on loading in order to set a custom build root directory. Other variables should not be changed. $Task is available for script blocks defined by task parameters If, Inputs, Outputs, and Jobs and by blocks Enter|Exit-BuildTask, Enter|Exit-BuildJob, Set-BuildHeader, Set-BuildFooter. $Task properties: - Name - [string], task name - Jobs - [object[]], task jobs - Started - [DateTime], task start time And in Exit-BuildTask: - Error - task error or null - Elapsed - [TimeSpan], task duration $Task is also defined in the script scope. It has the only property Name which is set to $BuildFile, the build script path. BUILD BLOCKS Scripts may define special script blocks. They are invoked: Enter-Build {} - before the first task Exit-Build {} - after the last task Enter-BuildTask {} - before each task Exit-BuildTask {} - after each task Enter-BuildJob {} - before each task action Exit-BuildJob {} - after each task action Set-BuildHeader {param($Path)} - to write task headers Set-BuildFooter {param($Path)} - to write task footers Blocks are not called on WhatIf. Nested builds do not inherit parent blocks. If Enter-X is called then Exit-X is also called, even on failures. Enter-Build and Exit-Build are invoked in the script scope. Enter-Build is suitable for initialization and it can output text unlike the build script. Enter-BuildTask, Exit-BuildTask, Enter-BuildJob, and Exit-BuildJob are invoked in the same scope, the parent of task action blocks. PRIVATE STUFF Function and variable names starting with '*' are reserved for the engine.</maml:para> </maml:description> <command:syntax> <command:syntaxItem> <maml:name>Invoke-Build.ps1</maml:name> <command:parameter required="false" position="0" > <maml:name>Task</maml:name> <command:parameterValue required="true">String[]</command:parameterValue> </command:parameter> <command:parameter required="false" position="1" > <maml:name>File</maml:name> <command:parameterValue required="true">Object</command:parameterValue> </command:parameter> <command:parameter required="false" position="named" > <maml:name>Result</maml:name> <command:parameterValue required="true">Object</command:parameterValue> </command:parameter> <command:parameter required="false" position="named" > <maml:name>Safe</maml:name> </command:parameter> <command:parameter required="false" position="named" > <maml:name>Summary</maml:name> </command:parameter> <command:parameter required="false" position="named" > <maml:name>WhatIf</maml:name> </command:parameter> </command:syntaxItem> </command:syntax> <command:parameters> <command:parameter required="false" position="0" > <maml:name>Task</maml:name> <maml:description> <maml:para>One or more tasks to be invoked. If it is not specified, null, empty, or equal to '.' then the task '.' is invoked if it exists, otherwise the first added task is invoked. Names with wildcard characters are reserved for special cases. SAFE REFERENCES If a task 'X' is referenced as '?X' then it is allowed to fail without breaking the build, i.e. other tasks specified after X will be invoked. SPECIAL TASKS ? - Tells to list tasks with brief information and check for errors. Task synopses are defined in preceding comments as # Synopsis: ... or <# .Synopsis ... #> ?? - Tells to collect and get all tasks as an ordered dictionary. It can be used by external tools for analysis, completion, etc. Tasks ? and ?? set $WhatIf to true. Properly designed build scripts should not perform anything significant if $WhatIf is set to true. * - Tells to invoke all tasks, for example when tasks are tests. ** - Invokes * for all files *.test.ps1 found recursively in the current directory or a directory specified by the parameter File.</maml:para> </maml:description> </command:parameter> <command:parameter required="false" position="1" > <maml:name>File</maml:name> <maml:description> <maml:para>A build script which adds tasks by the command 'task' (Add-BuildTask). If the file is omitted then Invoke-Build looks for *.build.ps1 files in the current location and takes the first in Sort-Object order. If the file is not found then a command set by the environment variable InvokeBuildGetFile is invoked with the directory path as an argument. This command may return the full path of a special build script. If the file is still not found then parent directories are searched. INLINE SCRIPT 'File' is a script block which is normally used in order to assemble a build on the fly without creating and using an extra build script file. $BuildFile is the calling script (or null, e.g. in jobs). The default $BuildRoot is its directory (or the current location). Script parameters, parallel, and persistent builds are not supported.</maml:para> </maml:description> </command:parameter> <command:parameter required="false" position="named" > <maml:name>Result</maml:name> <maml:description> <maml:para>Tells to make the build result.

Result properties: All - all available tasks Error - a terminating build error Tasks - invoked tasks including nested Errors - error objects including nested Warnings - warning objects including nested Redefined - list of original redefined tasks Tasks is a list of objects: Name - task name Jobs - task jobs Error - task error Started - start time Elapsed - task duration InvocationInfo - task location (.ScriptName, .ScriptLineNumber) Errors is a list of objects: Error - original error File - current $BuildFile Task - current $Task or null for other errors Warnings is a list of objects: Message - warning message File - current $BuildFile Task - current $Task or null for other warnings Do not change these data and do not use not documented members.</maml:para> </maml:description> </command:parameter> <command:parameter required="false" position="named" > <maml:name>Safe</maml:name> <maml:description> <maml:para>Tells to catch a build failure, store an error as the property Error of Result and return quietly. A caller should use Result and check Error. Some exceptions are possible even in the safe mode. They show serious errors, not build failures. For example, a build script is missing. When Safe is used together with the special task ** (invoke *.test.ps1) then task failures stop current test scripts, not the whole testing.</maml:para> </maml:description> </command:parameter> <command:parameter required="false" position="named" > <maml:name>Summary</maml:name> <maml:description> <maml:para>Tells to show summary information after the build.

Valid jobs are: [string] - an existing task name, normal reference [string] "?Name" - safe reference to a task allowed to fail [scriptblock] - action, a script block invoked for this task Special value: [hashtable] which contains the actual task parameters in addition to the task name. This task definition is more convenient with complex parameters, often typical for incremental tasks.

If the condition evaluates to false then the task is not invoked. The condition is defined in one of two ways depending on the requirements. Using standard Boolean notation (parenthesis) the condition is checked once when the task is defined. A use case for this notation might be evaluating a script parameter or another sort of global condition. Example: task Task1 -If ($Param1 -eq ...) {...} task Task2 -If ($PSVersionTable.PSVersion.Major -ge 5) {...} Using script block notation (curly braces) the condition is evaluated on task invocation. If a task is referenced by several tasks then the condition is evaluated each time until it gets true and the task is invoked. The script block notation is normally used for a condition that may be defined or changed during the build or just expensive. Example: task SomeTask -If {...} {...}</maml:para> </maml:description> <dev:defaultValue>$true</dev:defaultValue> </command:parameter> <command:parameter required="false" position="named" > <maml:name>Inputs</maml:name> <maml:description> <maml:para>Specifies the input items, tells to process the task as incremental, and requires the parameter Outputs with the optional switch Partial. Inputs are file items or paths or a script block which gets them. Outputs are file paths or a script block which gets them. A script block is invoked with input paths piped to it. Automatic variables for incremental task actions: $Inputs - full input paths, array of strings $Outputs - result of the evaluated Outputs With the switch Partial the task is processed as partial incremental. There must be one-to-one correspondence between Inputs and Outputs. Partial task actions often contain "process {}" blocks.

If the build is interrupted then it may be resumed later with the saved checkpoint file. The built-in Export-Clixml and Import-Clixml are used for saving checkpoints. Keep in mind that not all data types are suitable for this serialization. CUSTOM EXPORT AND IMPORT By default, the command saves and restores build tasks, script path, and all parameters declared by the build script. Tip: consider declaring some script variables as artificial parameters in order to make them persistent. If this is not enough for saving and restoring the build state then use custom export and import blocks. The export block is called on writing checkpoints, i.e. on each task. The import block is called on resuming once, before the task to be resumed. The export block is set by `Set-BuildData Checkpoint.Export`, e.g. Set-BuildData Checkpoint.Export { $script:var1 $script:var2 } The import block is set by `Set-BuildData Checkpoint.Import`, e.g. Set-BuildData Checkpoint.Import { param($data) $var1, $var2 = $data } The import block is called in the script scope. Thus, $var1 and $var2 are script variables right away. We may but do not have to use the prefix. The parameter $data is the output of Checkpoint.Export exported to clixml and then imported from clixml.</maml:para> </maml:description> <command:syntax> <command:syntaxItem> <maml:name>Build-Checkpoint.ps1</maml:name> <command:parameter required="true" position="0" > <maml:name>Checkpoint</maml:name> <command:parameterValue required="true">String</command:parameterValue> </command:parameter> <command:parameter required="false" position="1" > <maml:name>Build</maml:name> <command:parameterValue required="true">Hashtable</command:parameterValue> </command:parameter> <command:parameter required="false" position="named" > <maml:name>Preserve</maml:name> </command:parameter> </command:syntaxItem> <command:syntaxItem> <maml:name>Build-Checkpoint.ps1</maml:name> <command:parameter required="true" position="0" > <maml:name>Checkpoint</maml:name> <command:parameterValue required="true">String</command:parameterValue> </command:parameter> <command:parameter required="false" position="1" > <maml:name>Build</maml:name> <command:parameterValue required="true">Hashtable</command:parameterValue> </command:parameter> <command:parameter required="true" position="named" > <maml:name>Auto</maml:name> </command:parameter> <command:parameter required="false" position="named" > <maml:name>Preserve</maml:name> </command:parameter> </command:syntaxItem> <command:syntaxItem> <maml:name>Build-Checkpoint.ps1</maml:name> <command:parameter required="true" position="0" > <maml:name>Checkpoint</maml:name> <command:parameterValue required="true">String</command:parameterValue> </command:parameter> <command:parameter required="false" position="1" > <maml:name>Build</maml:name> <command:parameterValue required="true">Hashtable</command:parameterValue> </command:parameter> <command:parameter required="true" position="named" > <maml:name>Resume</maml:name> </command:parameter> <command:parameter required="false" position="named" > <maml:name>Preserve</maml:name> </command:parameter> </command:syntaxItem> </command:syntax> <command:parameters> <command:parameter required="true" position="0" > <maml:name>Checkpoint</maml:name> <maml:description> <maml:para>Specifies the checkpoint file (clixml).
