function Get-DbaXESessionTemplate { <# .SYNOPSIS Parses Extended Event XML templates. Defaults to parsing templates in the dbatools template repository (\bin\xetemplates\). .DESCRIPTION Parses Extended Event XML templates. Defaults to parsing templates in the dbatools template repository (\bin\xetemplates\). The default repository contains templates from: Microsoft's Templates that come with SSMS Jes Borland's "Everyday Extended Events" presentation and GitHub repository (https://github.com/grrlgeek/extended-events) Christian Grafe (@ChrGraefe) XE Repo: https://github.com/chrgraefe/sqlscripts/blob/master/XE-Events/ Erin Stellato's Blog: https://www.sqlskills.com/blogs/erin/ Some profile templates converted using: sp_SQLskills_ConvertTraceToExtendedEvents.sql Jonathan M. Kehayias, SQLskills.com http://sqlskills.com/blogs/jonathan .PARAMETER Path The path to the template directory. Defaults to the dbatools template repository (\bin\xetemplates\). .PARAMETER Pattern Specify a pattern for filtering. Alternatively, you can use Out-GridView -Passthru to select objects and pipe them to Import-DbaXESessionTemplate .PARAMETER Template Specifies one or more of the templates provided by dbatools. Press tab to cycle through the list of options. .PARAMETER EnableException By default, when something goes wrong we try to catch it, interpret it and give you a friendly warning message. This avoids overwhelming you with "sea of red" exceptions, but is inconvenient because it basically disables advanced scripting. Using this switch turns this "nice by default" feature off and enables you to catch exceptions with your own try/catch. .NOTES Tags: ExtendedEvent, XE, XEvent Author: Chrissy LeMaire (@cl), netnerds.net Website: https://dbatools.io Copyright: (c) 2018 by dbatools, licensed under MIT License: MIT https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT .LINK https://dbatools.io/Get-DbaXESessionTemplate .EXAMPLE PS C:\> Get-DbaXESessionTemplate Returns information about all the templates in the local dbatools repository. .EXAMPLE PS C:\> Get-DbaXESessionTemplate | Out-GridView -PassThru | Import-DbaXESessionTemplate -SqlInstance sql2017 | Start-DbaXESession Allows you to select a Session template, then import it to the specified instance and start the session. .EXAMPLE PS C:\> Get-DbaXESessionTemplate -Path "$home\Documents\SQL Server Management Studio\Templates\XEventTemplates" Returns information about all the templates in your local XEventTemplates repository. .EXAMPLE PS C:\> Get-DbaXESessionTemplate -Pattern duration Returns information about all the templates that match the word "duration" in the title, category or body. .EXAMPLE PS C:\> Get-DbaXESessionTemplate | Select-Object * Returns more information about the template, including the full path/filename. #> [CmdletBinding()] param ( [string[]]$Path = "$script:PSModuleRoot\bin\xetemplates", [string]$Pattern, [string[]]$Template, [switch]$EnableException ) begin { $metadata = Import-Clixml "$script:PSModuleRoot\bin\xetemplates-metadata.xml" # In case people really want a "like" search, which is slower $Pattern = $Pattern.Replace("*", ".*").Replace("..*", ".*") } process { foreach ($directory in $Path) { $files = Get-ChildItem "$directory\*.xml" if ($Template) { $files = $files | Where-Object BaseName -in $Template } foreach ($file in $files) { try { $xml = [xml](Get-Content $file) } catch { Stop-Function -Message "Failure" -ErrorRecord $_ -Target $file -Continue } foreach ($session in $xml.event_sessions) { $meta = $metadata | Where-Object Name -eq $session.event_session.name if ($Pattern) { if ( # There's probably a better way to do this ($session.event_session.name -match $Pattern) -or ($session.event_session.TemplateCategory.'#text' -match $Pattern) -or ($session.event_session.TemplateSource -match $Pattern) -or ($session.event_session.TemplateDescription.'#text' -match $Pattern) -or ($session.event_session.TemplateName.'#text' -match $Pattern) -or ($meta.Source -match $Pattern) ) { [pscustomobject]@{ Name = $session.event_session.name Category = $session.event_session.TemplateCategory.'#text' Source = $meta.Source Compatibility = ("$($meta.Compatibility)").ToString().Replace(",", "") Description = $session.event_session.TemplateDescription.'#text' TemplateName = $session.event_session.TemplateName.'#text' Path = $file File = $file.Name } | Select-DefaultView -ExcludeProperty File, TemplateName, Path } } else { [pscustomobject]@{ Name = $session.event_session.name Category = $session.event_session.TemplateCategory.'#text' Source = $meta.Source Compatibility = $meta.Compatibility.ToString().Replace(",", "") Description = $session.event_session.TemplateDescription.'#text' TemplateName = $session.event_session.TemplateName.'#text' Path = $file File = $file.Name } | Select-DefaultView -ExcludeProperty File, TemplateName, Path } } } } } } |
