This cmdlet will check for existence of PowerShell module in given repository and return its version.
Get-GitModule [-ProjectUri] <String[]> [-Branch <String>] [-KeepTempCopy] [<CommonParameters>]
Get-GitModule -Name <String[]> [-Branch <String>] [-KeepTempCopy] [<CommonParameters>]
This cmdlet will check for existence of PowerShell module in given repository and return its version. You can also specify desired git branch.
Cmdlet requires `git` client tool to work. It will download (`git clone`) specified repository to temporary directory and analyze it. By default, it will delete this temporary copy, but if needed, it can be kept.
Cmdlet searches for module manifest ( .psd1) file. If that is not found, then it searches for module (.psm1) file itself.
PS C:\> Get-GitModule 'https://github.com/iricigor/FIFA2018' -Verbose
Name : FIFA2018
Version : 0.3.46
Path :
Root : True
Git : https://github.com/iricigor/FIFA2018
This cmdlet will check for existence of PowerShell module in given repository (https://github.com/iricigor/FIFA2018') and return its version (currently 0.3.46).
PS C:\> $M = Find-Module FIFA2018; $M.Version; ($M | Get-GitModule).Version
0.2.45
0.3.46
This illustrates how you can check latest versions of the module both in PSGallery and in its repository. Notice that cmdlet `Get-GitModule` accepts value for `-ProjectURI` via pipeline.
Optional parameter that specifies which branch should be cloned. If omitted, `master` branch will be used.
