Import-CommandConfiguration

  • Reference
Module:
Microsoft.PowerShell.Crescendo

Import a PowerShell Crescendo json file.

Syntax

Import-CommandConfiguration
      [-file] <String>
      [<CommonParameters>]

Description

This cmdlet exports an object that can be converted into a function that acts as a proxy for the platform specific command. The resultant object may then be used to call a native command that can participate in the PowerShell pipeline. The ToString method of the output object returns a string that can be used to create a function that calls the native command. Microsoft Windows, Linux, and macOS can run the generated function, if the native command is on all platforms.
