<# .Synopsis Install PowerShell on Windows, Linux or macOS. .DESCRIPTION By default, the latest PowerShell release package will be installed. If '-Daily' is specified, then the latest PowerShell daily package will be installed. .Parameter Destination The destination path to install PowerShell to. .Parameter Daily Install PowerShell from the daily build. Note that the 'PackageManagement' module is required to install a daily package. .Parameter DoNotOverwrite Do not overwrite the destination folder if it already exists. .Parameter AddToPath On Windows, add the absolute destination path to the 'User' scope environment variable 'Path'; On Linux, make the symlink '/usr/bin/pwsh' points to "$Destination/pwsh"; On MacOS, make the symlink '/usr/local/bin/pwsh' points to "$Destination/pwsh". .EXAMPLE Install the daily build .\install-powershell.ps1 -Daily .EXAMPLE Invoke this script directly from GitHub Invoke-Expression "& { $(Invoke-RestMethod 'https://aka.ms/install-powershell.ps1') } -daily" #> [CmdletBinding(DefaultParameterSetName = "Daily")] param( [Parameter(ParameterSetName = "Daily")] [string] $Destination, [Parameter(ParameterSetName = "Daily")] [switch] $Daily, [Parameter(ParameterSetName = "Daily")] [switch] $DoNotOverwrite, [Parameter(ParameterSetName = "Daily")] [switch] $AddToPath, [Parameter(ParameterSetName = "MSI")] [switch] $UseMSI, [Parameter(ParameterSetName = "MSI")] [switch] $Quiet, [Parameter(ParameterSetName = "MSI")] [switch] $AddExplorerContextMenu, [Parameter(ParameterSetName = "MSI")] [switch] $EnablePSRemoting, [Parameter()] [switch] $Preview ) Set-StrictMode -Version 3.0 $ErrorActionPreference = "Stop" $IsLinuxEnv = (Get-Variable -Name "IsLinux" -ErrorAction Ignore) -and $IsLinux $IsMacOSEnv = (Get-Variable -Name "IsMacOS" -ErrorAction Ignore) -and $IsMacOS $IsWinEnv = !$IsLinuxEnv -and !$IsMacOSEnv if (-not $Destination) { if ($IsWinEnv) { $Destination = "$env:LOCALAPPDATA\Microsoft\powershell" } else { if (Test-Path -path "/opt/PowerShell" -pathType container) { $Destination = "/opt/PowerShell" } else { $Destination = "~/.powershell" } } if ($Daily) { $Destination = "${Destination}-daily" } } $Destination = $PSCmdlet.SessionState.Path.GetUnresolvedProviderPathFromPSPath($Destination) if (-not $UseMSI) { #Write-Host "Installation destination path: $Destination" } else { if (-not $IsWinEnv) { throw "-UseMSI is only supported on Windows" } else { $MSIArguments = @() if($AddExplorerContextMenu) { $MSIArguments += "ADD_EXPLORER_CONTEXT_MENU_OPENPOWERSHELL=1" } if($EnablePSRemoting) { $MSIArguments += "ENABLE_PSREMOTING=1" } } } # Expand an archive using Expand-archive when available # and the DotNet API when it is not function Expand-ArchiveInternal { [CmdletBinding()] param( $Path, $DestinationPath ) if((Get-Command -Name Expand-Archive -ErrorAction Ignore)) { Expand-Archive -Path $Path -DestinationPath $DestinationPath } else { Add-Type -AssemblyName System.IO.Compression.FileSystem $resolvedPath = $ExecutionContext.SessionState.Path.GetUnresolvedProviderPathFromPSPath($Path) $resolvedDestinationPath = $ExecutionContext.SessionState.Path.GetUnresolvedProviderPathFromPSPath($DestinationPath) [System.IO.Compression.ZipFile]::ExtractToDirectory($resolvedPath,$resolvedDestinationPath) } } function Remove-Destination([string]$Destination) { if (Test-Path -path $Destination -pathType container) { if ($DoNotOverwrite) { throw "Destination folder '$Destination' already exist.
