This directory contains (template based) generators that allow end-users to easily generate new Powershell Modules following ModuleBuilder best practices and thus:

• folder structure
• default settings

After cloning this repository (and assuming you have the dotnet SDK installed), you can install the ModuleBuilder templates from this folder by running:

dotnet new -i ./

We need to publish this to nuget to make installing it easier.

Once you've installed the template(s), you can use the PSModuleBuilder template to generate a new module in an empty folder using:

dotnet new PSModuleBuilder

Or you can create the module folder with -o and set the module author, company and description like this:

dotnet new PSModuleBuilder -o MyNewModule --author Jaykul --company PoshCode.org --description "My Brand New Module"

Even better, you can create some defaults for yourself using the alias option:

dotnet new -a psmo psmodulebuilder --author Jaykul --company PoshCode.org

And then create a new module like this:

dotnet new psmo -o MyNewModule --description "My Brand New Module"
