this change will enable a large number of your existing Windows PowerShell modules/scripts to "just work" inside of PowerShell Core on Windows.
(Note: We have also fixed the CDXML modules on Windows that were regressed in 6.0.0-beta.2
as part of #4144).
So that we can further enable this backwards compatibility,
we ask that you tell us more about what modules or scripts do and don't work in Issue #4062.
This feedback will also help us determine if PSModulePath
should include the Windows PowerShell values by default in the long run.
For more information on this, we invite you to read this blog post explaining PowerShell Core and .NET Standard in more detail.
- Add Windows PowerShell
PSModulePath
by default on Windows. (#4132) - Move PowerShell to
2.0.0-preview3-25426-01
and using the .NET CLI version2.0.0-preview2-006502
. (#4144) - Performance improvement in PSReadline by minimizing writing ANSI escape sequences. (#4110)
- Implement Unicode escape parsing so that users can use Unicode characters as arguments, strings or variable names. (#3958) (Thanks to @rkeithhill!)
- Script names or full paths can have commas. (#4136) (Thanks to @TimCurwick!)
- Added
semver
as a type accelerator forSystem.Management.Automation.SemanticVersion
. (#4142) (Thanks to @oising!) - Close
eventLogSession
andEventLogReader
to unlock an ETL log. (#4034) (Thanks to @iSazonov!)
Move-Item
cmdlet honors-Include
,-Exclude
, and-Filter
parameters. (#3878)- Add a parameter to
Get-ChildItem
called-FollowSymlink
that traverses symlinks on demand, with checks for link loops. (#4020) - Change
New-ModuleManifest
encoding to UTF8NoBOM on non-Windows platforms. (#3940) Get-AuthenticodeSignature
cmdlets can now get file signature timestamp. (#4061)- Add tab completion for
Export-Counter
-FileFormat
parameter. (#3856) - Fixed
Import-Module
on non-Windows platforms so that users can import modules withNestedModules
andRootModules
. (#4010) - Close
FileStream
opened byGet-FileHash
. (#4175) (Thanks to @rkeithhill!)
- Fixed PowerShell not responding when the SSH client abruptly terminates. (#4123)
- Added recommended settings for VS Code. (#4054) (Thanks to @iSazonov!)
- Remove the
BuildVersion
property from$PSVersionTable
. This property was strongly tied to the Windows build version. Instead, we recommend that you useGitCommitId
to retrieve the exact build version of PowerShell Core. (#3877) (Thanks to @iSazonov!) - Change positional parameter for
powershell.exe
from-Command
to-File
. This fixes the usage of#!
(aka as a shebang) in PowerShell scripts that are being executed from non-PowerShell shells on non-Windows platforms. This also means that you can now do things likepowershell foo.ps1
orpowershell fooScript
without specifying-File
. However, this change now requires that you explicitly specify-c
or-Command
when trying to do things likepowershell.exe Get-Command
. (#4019) - Remove
ClrVersion
property from$PSVersionTable
. (This property is largely irrelevant for .NET Core, and was only preserved in .NET Core for specific legacy purposes that are inapplicable to PowerShell.) (#4027)
- Add support to probe and load assemblies from GAC on Windows platform.
This means that you can now load Windows PowerShell modules with assembly dependencies which reside in the GAC.
If you're interested in running your traditional Windows PowerShell scripts and cmdlets using the power of .NET Standard 2.0,
try adding your Windows PowerShell module directories to your PowerShell Core
$PSModulePath
. (E.g.$env:PSModulePath += ';C:\Program Files\WindowsPowerShell\Modules;C:\WINDOWS\system32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\Modules'
) Even if the module isn't owned by the PowerShell Team, please tell us what works and what doesn't by leaving a comment in issue #4062! (#3981) - Enhance type inference in tab completion based on runtime variable values. (#2744) (Thanks to @powercode!) This enables tab completion in situations like:
$p = Get-Process
$p | Foreach-Object Prio<tab>
- Add
GitCommitId
to PowerShell Core banner. Now you don't have to run$PSVersionTable
as soon as you start PowerShell to get the version! (#3916) (Thanks to @iSazonov!) - Fix a bug in tab completion to make
native.exe --<tab>
call into native completer. (#3633) (Thanks to @powercode!) - Fix PowerShell Core to allow use of long paths that are more than 260 characters. (#3960)
- Fix ConsoleHost to honour
NoEcho
on Unix platforms. (#3801) - Fix transcription to not stop when a Runspace is closed during the transcription. (#3896)
- Enable
Send-MailMessage
in PowerShell Core. (#3869) - Fix
Get-Help
to support case insensitive pattern matching on Unix platforms. (#3852) - Fix tab completion on
Get-Help
forabout_*
topics. (#4014) - Fix PSReadline to work in Windows Server Core container image. (#3937)
- Fix
Import-Module
to honourScriptsToProcess
when-Version
is specified. (#3897) - Strip authorization header on redirects with web cmdlets. (#3885)
Start-Sleep
: add the aliasms
to the parameter-Milliseconds
. (#4039) (Thanks to @Tadas!)
- Make hosting PowerShell Core in your own .NET applications much easier by refactoring PowerShell Core to use the default CoreCLR loader. (#3903)
- Update
Add-Type
to supportCSharpVersion7
. (#3933) (Thanks to @iSazonov)
- Putting
&
at the end of a pipeline will cause the pipeline to be run as a PowerShell job. - When a pipeline is backgrounded, a job object is returned.
- Once the pipeline is running as a job, all of the standard
*-Job
cmdlets can be used to manage the job. - Variables (ignoring process-specific variables) used in the pipeline are automatically copied to the job so
Copy-Item $foo $bar &
just works. - The job is also run in the current directory instead of the user's home directory.
- For more information about PowerShell jobs, see about_Jobs.
- Crossgen more of the .NET Core assemblies to improve PowerShell Core startup time. (#3787)
- Enable comparison between a
SemanticVersion
instance and aVersion
instance that is constructed only withMajor
andMinor
version values. This will fix some cases where PowerShell Core was failing to import older Windows PowerShell modules. (#3793) (Thanks to @mklement0!)
- Support Link header pagination in web cmdlets (#3828)
- For
Invoke-WebRequest
, when the response includes a Link header we create a RelationLink property as a Dictionary representing the URLs andrel
attributes and ensure the URLs are absolute to make it easier for the developer to use. - For
Invoke-RestMethod
, when the response includes a Link header we expose a-FollowRelLink
switch to automatically follownext
rel
links until they no longer exist or once we hit the optional-MaximumFollowRelLink
parameter value.
- For
- Update
Get-ChildItem
to be more in line with the way that the *nixls -R
and the WindowsDIR /S
native commands handle symbolic links to directories during a recursive search. Now,Get-ChildItem
returns the symbolic links it encountered during the search, but it won't search the directories those links target. (#3780) - Fix
Get-ChildItem
to continue enumeration after throwing an error in the middle of a set of items. This fixes some issues where inaccessible directories or files would halt execution ofGet-ChildItem
. (#3806) - Fix
ConvertFrom-Json
to deserialize an array of strings from the pipeline that together construct a complete JSON string. This fixes some cases where newlines would break JSON parsing. (#3823) - Enable
Get-TimeZone
for macOS/Linux. (#3735) - Change to not expose unsupported aliases and cmdlets on macOS/Linux. (#3595) (Thanks to @iSazonov!)
- Fix
Invoke-Item
to accept a file path that includes spaces on macOS/Linux. (#3850) - Fix an issue where PSReadline was not rendering multi-line prompts correctly on macOS/Linux. (#3867)
- Fix an issue where PSReadline was not working on Nano Server. (#3815)
PowerShell Core has moved to using .NET Core 2.0 so that we can leverage all the benefits of .NET Standard 2.0. (#3556) To learn more about .NET Standard 2.0, there's some great starter content on Youtube, on the .NET blog, and on GitHub. We'll also have more content soon in our repository documentation (which will eventually make its way to official documentation). In a nutshell, .NET Standard 2.0 allows us to have universal, portable modules between Windows PowerShell (which uses the full .NET Framework) and PowerShell Core (which uses .NET Core). Many modules and cmdlets that didn't work in the past may now work on .NET Core, so import your favorite modules and tell us what does and doesn't work in our GitHub Issues!
- For the first beta of PowerShell Core 6.0, telemetry has been to the console host to report two values (#3620):
- the OS platform (
$PSVersionTable.OSDescription
) - the exact version of PowerShell (
$PSVersionTable.GitCommitId
)
- the OS platform (
If you want to opt-out of this telemetry, simply delete $PSHome\DELETE_ME_TO_DISABLE_CONSOLEHOST_TELEMETRY
.
Even before the first run of Powershell, deleting this file will bypass all telemetry.
In the future, we plan on also enabling a configuration value for whatever is approved as part of RFC0015.
We also plan on exposing this telemetry data (as well as whatever insights we leverage from the telemetry) in our community dashboard.
If you have any questions or comments about our telemetry, please file an issue.
