v0.9.0-preview0009

[v0.9.0-preview0009]

Added

• Added private functions:
  • Get-ClassAst - Returns the AST for a single or all classes.
  • Get-ClassResourceAst - Returns the AST for a single or all DSC class
    resources.
  • Get-ClassResourceProperty - Returns DSC class resource properties
    from the provided class or classes.
  • Format-Text - Format a string according to predefined options.
  • Get-TemporaryPath - returns the appropriate temp path for the OS.
  • Get-ConfigurationAst - Returns the AST for a single or all configurations.
  • Get-CompositeSchemaObject - Returns an object containing the parameters
    and other properties related to a composite resource. The object that is
    returned is different format to a MOF or class-based object and the property
    names are aligned to a configuration parameter block rather than MOF.
  • Get-CompositeResourceParameterState - Determines the parameter state of a
    composite resource parameter. This is a meta attribute that will either be
    Required or Write.
  • Get-CompositeResourceParameterValidateSet - Returns the array of values
    contained in the ValidateSet parameter attributes if it exists.
• Added QA test to do some quality checks on the module code and change log.

Changed

• New-DscResourceWikiPage
  • If a class-based resource has a parent class that contains DSC resource
    properties they will now also be returned as part of the DSC resource
    parameters (issue #62).
  • Refactored to split into two private functions New-DscMofResourceWikiPage and
    New-DscClassResourceWikiPage.
• Get-MofSchemaObject
  • Refactored to reduce code duplication when adding functions for supporting
    composite resources.
• Get-ClassResourceCommentBasedHelp
  • Renamed this function to Get-CommentBasedHelp so that it made sense to
    use with composite DSC resources.
  • Enabled the function to extract the comment block if it is not at the top
    of the script file to support composite resources.
• Updated code to pass newly added quality checks.
• Invoke-Git
  • Converted to public function.
  • Updated to use System.Diagnostics.Process for improved error handling.
  • Returns object, allowing caller to process result.
  • git commands no longer use --quiet to populate returned object.

Fixed

• Publish_GitHub_Wiki_Content
  • Output message if $GitHubToken not specified which skips this task.
    Fixes Issue 75
  • Change working folder for the call to git with the argument remote.
• Invoke-Git
  • Set $TimeOut to Milliseconds
    Fixes Issue 84
  • Calls git so it works on both Windows and Linux.
• Publish-WikiContent
  • Remove a unnecessary Set-Location so it is possible to remove the
    temporary folder.
