SHORT DESCRIPTION
    Describes how to manage RoyalServer using PowerShell Commandlets.
 
LONG DESCRIPTION
    Royal Server provides a list of loaded `Royal Server Modules` which contain
    `Commands` which in turn require a list of `Parameters`. All this is exposed
    and discoverable via PowerShell Commandlets.
 
EXAMPLES
    SETUP
    In order to work with the RoyalServer PowerShell Commandlets, you need to
    register them with your PowerShell session. Just issue the following command
    and you are good to go:
 
    Import-Module RoyalServer.PowerShell
 
    > Usually, Royal Server is installed to `%ProgramFiles%\RoyalServer V4` or
    `%ProgramFiles(x86)%\RoyalServer`, respectively.
    If you like to have the RoyalServer CommandLets in all your PowerShell
    sessions, include this line in your PowerShell profile. To locate where your
    profile is call `$profile` in your PowerShell session. Usually, this
    location is at
    `%USERPROFILE%\Documents\WindowsPowerShell\Microsoft.PowerShell_profile.ps1`.
 
    FIRST STEPS
    Setting up a connection to Royal Server looks like this:
 
    # create a new RoyalServerConfig
     
    $cred = Get-Credential
    $config = New-RoyalServerConfig -Host "127.0.0.1" -UseSSL $true -Port 54899 -Credential $cred
 
    WORKING WITH ROYAL SERVER RESPONSES
    # gets all available Modules
    $response = Get-RoyalServerModule -RoyalServerConfig $config
 
    The variable `$response` is of the type RoyalServerPowerShellResponse which
    contains a list of responses since Royal Server can execute queries against
    multiple hosts with one request. Examine how many responses you got via
    `$response.Responses.Count`. The Responses collection contains entries of
    the type `RoyalServerPowerShellSingleResponse`. These contain two members:
    `Result` which is a `System.DataTable` with the actual data and `MetaData`
    which contains some additional information.
    The following example outputs the loaded modules of Royal Server:
 
    # loop over all responses,
    # you can omit this if you know there is only one and use $response.Responses[0]
    foreach($response in $response.Responses)
    {
         # loop over all rows in $response.Result
         foreach($row in $response.Result.Rows)
         {
     
              Write-Host ($row[0] + " - " + $row[1])
         }
    }
 
    To get an overview of all data and row names etc, you can use `Out-String`
    or `Out-GridView`:
 
    $response.Responses[0].Result | Out-String
 
NOTE
    In a PowerShell session, you can get information to all commandlets by using
    the `Get-Help` command. Also, please take a look at our
    Module Reference
    for detailed examples for all modules.
