Function Import-VcMdtApp { <# .SYNOPSIS Creates Visual C++ Redistributable applications in a Microsoft Deployment Toolkit share. .DESCRIPTION Creates an application in a Microsoft Deployment Toolkit share for each Visual C++ Redistributable and includes properties such as target Silent command line, Platform and Uninstall key. Use Get-VcList and Get-VcRedist to download the Redistributables and create the array for importing into MDT. .OUTPUTS System.Array .NOTES Author: Aaron Parker Twitter: @stealthpuppy .LINK https://github.com/aaronparker/Install-VisualCRedistributables .PARAMETER VcList An array containing details of the Visual C++ Redistributables from Get-VcList. .PARAMETER Path A folder containing the downloaded Visual C++ Redistributables. .PARAMETER Release Specifies the release (or version) of the redistributables to import into MDT. .PARAMETER Architecture Specifies the processor architecture to import into MDT. Can be x86 or x64. .PARAMETER MdtPath The local or network path to the MDT deployment share. .PARAMETER Silent Add a completely silent command line install of the VcRedist with no UI. The default install is passive. .PARAMETER Bundle Add to create an Application Bundle named 'Visual C++ Redistributables' to simplify installing the Redistributables. .EXAMPLE Get-VcList | Get-VcRedist -Path C:\Temp\VcRedist | Import-VcMdtApp -Path C:\Temp\VcRedist -MdtPath \\server\deployment Description: Retrieves the list of Visual C++ Redistributables, downloads them to C:\Temp\VcRedist and imports each Redistributable into the MDT deployment share at \\server\deployment. .EXAMPLE $VcList = Get-VcList -Export All Get-VcRedist -VcList $VcList -Path C:\Temp\VcRedist Import-VcMdtApp -VcList $VcList -Path C:\Temp\VcRedist -MdtPath \\server\deployment -Bundle Description: Retrieves the list of supported and unsupported Visual C++ Redistributables in the variable $VcList, downloads them to C:\Temp\VcRedist, imports each Redistributable into the MDT deployment share at \\server\deployment and creates an application bundle. #> [CmdletBinding(SupportsShouldProcess = $True)] [OutputType([Array])] Param ( [Parameter(Mandatory = $True, Position = 0, ` HelpMessage = "An array containing details of the Visual C++ Redistributables from Get-VcList.")] [ValidateNotNull()] [array] $VcList, [Parameter(Mandatory = $True, Position = 1, ` HelpMessage = "A folder containing the downloaded Visual C++ Redistributables.")] [ValidateScript( { If (Test-Path $_ -PathType 'Container') { $True } Else { Throw "Cannot find path $_" } })] [string] $Path, [Parameter(Mandatory = $True, HelpMessage = "The path to the MDT deployment share.")] [ValidateScript( { If (Test-Path $_ -PathType 'Container') { $True } Else { Throw "Cannot find path $_" } })] [string] $MdtPath, [Parameter(Mandatory = $False, HelpMessage = "Specify Applications folder to import the VC Redistributables into.")] [ValidatePattern('^[a-zA-Z0-9]+$')] [ValidateNotNullOrEmpty()] [string] $AppFolder = "VcRedists", [Parameter(Mandatory = $False, HelpMessage = "Specify the version of the Redistributables to install.")] [ValidateSet('2005', '2008', '2010', '2012', '2013', '2015', '2017')] [string[]] $Release = @("2008", "2010", "2012", "2013", "2017"), [Parameter(Mandatory = $False, HelpMessage = "Specify the processor architecture/s to install.")] [ValidateSet('x86', 'x64')] [string[]] $Architecture = @("x86", "x64"), [Parameter(Mandatory = $False, HelpMessage = "Add the imported Visual C++ Redistributables into an Application Bundle.")] [switch] $Bundle, [Parameter(Mandatory = $False, HelpMessage = "Set a silent install command line.")] [switch] $Silent, [Parameter()] $mdtDrive = "DS001", [Parameter()] $Publisher = "Microsoft", [Parameter()] $BundleName = "Visual C++ Redistributables", [Parameter()] $Language = "en-US", [Parameter()] $Comments = "Application bundle for installing Visual C++ Redistributables." ) Begin { # If we can find the MDT PowerShell module, import it.
