Adding and invoking commands

After creating a runspace, you can add Windows PowerShell commands and scripts to a pipeline, and then invoke the pipeline synchronously or asynchronously.

Creating a pipeline

The System.Management.Automation.Powershell class provides several methods to add commands, parameters, and scripts to the pipeline. You can invoke the pipeline synchronously by calling an overload of the System.Management.Automation.Powershell.Invoke* method, or asynchronously by calling an overload of the System.Management.Automation.Powershell.Begininvoke* and then the System.Management.Automation.Powershell.Endinvoke* method.

AddCommand

Create a System.Management.Automation.Powershell object.
```
PowerShell ps = PowerShell.Create();
```
Add the command that you want to execute.
```
ps.AddCommand("Get-Process");
```
Invoke the command.
```
ps.Invoke();
```

If you call the System.Management.Automation.Powershell.Addcommand* method more than once before you call the System.Management.Automation.Powershell.Invoke* method, the result of the first command is piped to the second, and so on. If you do not want to pipe the result of a previous command to a command, add it by calling the System.Management.Automation.Powershell.Addstatement* instead.

AddParameter

The previous example executes a single command without any parameters. You can add parameters to the command by using the System.Management.Automation.Pscommand.Addparameter* method For example, the following code gets a list of all of the processes that are named PowerShell running on the machine.

PowerShell.Create().AddCommand("Get-Process")
                   .AddParameter("Name", "PowerShell")
                   .Invoke();

You can add additional parameters by calling System.Management.Automation.Pscommand.Addparameter* repeatedly.

PowerShell.Create().AddCommand("Get-Command")
                   .AddParameter("Name", "Get-VM")
                   .AddParameter("Module", "Hyper-V")
                   .Invoke();

You can also add a dictionary of parameter names and values by calling the System.Management.Automation.Powershell.Addparameters* method.

IDictionary parameters = new Dictionary<String, String>();
parameters.Add("Name", "Get-VM");

parameters.Add("Module", "Hyper-V");
PowerShell.Create().AddCommand("Get-Command")
   .AddParameters(parameters)
      .Invoke()

AddStatement

You can simulate batching by using the System.Management.Automation.Powershell.Addstatement* method, which adds an additional statement to the end of the pipeline The following code gets a list of running processes with the name PowerShell, and then gets the list of running services.

PowerShell ps = PowerShell.Create();
ps.AddCommand("Get-Process").AddParameter("Name", "PowerShell");
ps.AddStatement().AddCommand("Get-Service");
ps.Invoke();

AddScript

You can run an existing script by calling the System.Management.Automation.Powershell.Addscript* method. The following example adds a script to the pipeline and runs it. This example assumes there is already a script named MyScript.ps1 in a folder named D:\PSScripts.

PowerShell ps = PowerShell.Create();
ps.AddScript(File.ReadAllText(@"D:\PSScripts\MyScript.ps1")).Invoke();

There is also a version of the System.Management.Automation.Powershell.Addscript* method that takes a boolean parameter named useLocalScope. If this parameter is set to true, then the script is run in the local scope. The following code will run the script in the local scope.

PowerShell ps = PowerShell.Create();
ps.AddScript(File.ReadAllText(@"D:\PSScripts\MyScript.ps1"), true).Invoke();

Invoking a pipeline synchronously

After you add elements to the pipeline, you invoke it. To invoke the pipeline synchronously, you call an overload of the System.Management.Automation.Powershell.Invoke* method. The following example shows how to synchronously invoke a pipeline.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Management.Automation;

namespace HostPS1e
{
  class HostPS1e
  {
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
      // Using the PowerShell.Create and AddCommand
      // methods, create a command pipeline.
      PowerShell ps = PowerShell.Create().AddCommand ("Sort-Object");

      // Using the PowerShell.Invoke method, run the command
      // pipeline using the supplied input.
      foreach (PSObject result in ps.Invoke(new int[] { 3, 1, 6, 2, 5, 4 }))
      {
          Console.WriteLine("{0}", result);
      } // End foreach.
    } // End Main.
  } // End HostPS1e.
}

Invoking a pipeline asynchronously

You invoke a pipeline asynchronously by calling an overload of the System.Management.Automation.Powershell.Begininvoke* to create an IAsyncResult object, and then calling the System.Management.Automation.Powershell.Endinvoke* method.

The following example shows how to invoke a pipeline asynchronously.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Management.Automation;

namespace HostPS3
{
  class HostPS3
  {
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
      // Use the PowerShell.Create and PowerShell.AddCommand
      // methods to create a command pipeline that includes
      // Get-Process cmdlet. Do not include spaces immediately
      // before or after the cmdlet name as that will cause
      // the command to fail.
      PowerShell ps = PowerShell.Create().AddCommand("Get-Process");

      // Create an IAsyncResult object and call the
      // BeginInvoke method to start running the
      // command pipeline asynchronously.
      IAsyncResult asyncpl = ps.BeginInvoke();

      // Using the PowerShell.Invoke method, run the command
      // pipeline using the default runspace.
      foreach (PSObject result in ps.EndInvoke(asyncpl))
      {
        Console.WriteLine("{0,-20}{1}",
                result.Members["ProcessName"].Value,
                result.Members["Id"].Value);
      } // End foreach.
      System.Console.WriteLine("Hit any key to exit.");
      System.Console.ReadKey();
    } // End Main.
  } // End HostPS3.
}
