Function New-DynamicParameter () { <# .SYNOPSIS Expedites creating PowerShell cmdlet dynamic parameters. .DESCRIPTION This cmdlet facilitates the easy creation of dynamic parameters. .PARAMETER Name The name of the parameter. .PARAMETER Type The type of the parameter, this defaults to System.String. .PARAMETER Mandatory Indicates whether the parameter is required when the cmdlet or function is run. .PARAMETER ParameterSets The name of the parameter sets to which this parameter belongs. This defaults to __AllParameterSets. .PARAMETER Position The position of the parameter in the command-line string. .PARAMETER ValueFromPipeline Indicates whether the parameter can take values from incoming pipeline objects. .PARAMETER ValueFromPipelineByPropertyName Indicates that the parameter can take values from a property of the incoming pipeline object that has the same name as this parameter. For example, if the name of the cmdlet or function parameter is userName, the parameter can take values from the userName property of incoming objects. .PARAMETER ValueFromRemainingArguments Indicates whether the cmdlet parameter accepts all the remaining command-line arguments that are associated with this parameter. .PARAMETER HelpMessage A short description of the parameter. .PARAMETER DontShow Indicates that this parameter should not be shown to the user in this like intellisense. This is primarily to be used in functions that are implementing the logic for dynamic keywords. .PARAMETER Alias Declares a alternative namea for the parameter. .PARAMETER ValidateNotNull Validates that the argument of an optional parameter is not null. .PARAMETER ValidateNotNullOrEmpty Validates that the argument of an optional parameter is not null, an empty string, or an empty collection. .PARAMETER AllowEmptyString Allows Empty strings. .PARAMETER AllowNull Allows null values. .PARAMETER AllowEmptyCollection Allows empty collections. .PARAMETER ValidateScript Defines an attribute that uses a script to validate a parameter of any Windows PowerShell function. .PARAMETER ValidateSet Defines an attribute that uses a set of values to validate a cmdlet parameter argument. .PARAMETER ValidateRange Defines an attribute that uses minimum and maximum values to validate a cmdlet parameter argument. .PARAMETER ValidateCount Defines an attribute that uses maximum and minimum limits to validate the number of arguments that a cmdlet parameter accepts. .PARAMETER ValidateLength Defines an attribute that uses minimum and maximum limits to validate the number of characters in a cmdlet parameter argument. .PARAMETER ValidatePattern Defines an attribute that uses a regular expression to validate the character pattern of a cmdlet parameter argument. .PARAMETER RuntimeParameterDictionary The dictionary to add the new parameter to. If one is not provided, a new dictionary is created and returned to the pipeline. .EXAMPLE DynamicParam { ... $RuntimeParameterDictionary = New-Object -TypeName System.Management.Automation.RuntimeDefinedParameterDictionary New-DynamicParameter -Name "Numbers" -ValidateSet @(1, 2, 3) -Type [System.Int32] -Mandatory -RuntimeParameterDictionary $RuntimeParameterDictionary | Out-Null ... return $RuntimeParameterDictionary } A new parameter named "Numbers" is added to the cmdlet. The parameter is mandatory and must be 1, 2, or 3. The dictionary sent in is modified and does not need to be received. .EXAMPLE DynamicParam { ... $Params = @( @{ "Name" = "Numbers"; "ValidateSet" = @(1, 2, 3); "Type" = [System.Int32] }, @{ "Name" = "FirstName"; "Type" = [System.String]; "Mandatory" = $true; "ParameterSets" = @("Names") } ) $Params | ForEach-Object { New-Object PSObject -Property $_ } | New-DynamicParameter } The example creates an array of two hashtables. These hashtables are converted into PSObjects so they can match the parameters by property name, then new dynamic parameters are created. All of the parameters are fed to New-DynamicParameter which returns a single new RuntimeParameterDictionary to the pipeline, which is returned from the DynamicParam section. .EXAMPLE Function Invoke-NewDynamicParameterTest { [CmdletBinding()] Param() DynamicParam { # Define new parameters $Params = @( @{'Name' = 'Numbers'; 'ValidateSet' = @(1, 2, 3); 'Type' = [System.Int32]}, @{'Name' = 'FirstName'; 'Type' = [System.String]; 'Mandatory' = $true; 'ParameterSets' = @('Names')} ) # Create new parameters Return $Params | ForEach-Object { New-Object PSObject -Property:($_) } | New-DynamicParameter } Begin { # Debug message for parameter call $PSBoundParameters | Out-DebugParameter | Write-Debug } Process { # For DynamicParam with a default value set that value and then convert the DynamicParam inputs into new variables for the script to use Invoke-Command -ScriptBlock:($ScriptBlock_DefaultDynamicParamProcess) -ArgumentList:($PsBoundParameters, $PSCmdlet, $RuntimeParameterDictionary) -NoNewScope Write-Output ('') Write-Output ('Numbers: ' + [string]$Numbers + '; FirstName: ' + $FirstName + ';') } End { } } Invoke-NewDynamicParameterTest -Numbers:(1) -FirstName:('hello') .INPUTS System.Management.Automation.PSObject .OUTPUTS System.Management.Automation.RuntimeDefinedParameterDictionary .NOTES AUTHOR: Michael Haken LAST UPDATE: 2/6/2018 WEBSITE: https://www.powershellgallery.com/packages/BAMCIS.DynamicParam/1.0.0.0/Content/BAMCIS.DynamicParam.psm1 #> [CmdletBinding()] [OutputType([System.Management.Automation.RuntimeDefinedParameterDictionary])] Param ( [Parameter(Mandatory = $true, ValueFromPipelineByPropertyName = $true)][ValidateNotNullOrEmpty()][System.String]$Name, #
