function Get-DbaRandomizedType { <# .SYNOPSIS Get the randomized types and sub types .DESCRIPTION Retrieves the types and sub types available .PARAMETER RandomizedType Filter the randomized types .PARAMETER RandomizedSubType Filter the randomized sub types .PARAMETER Pattern Get the types and sub types based on a pattern .PARAMETER WhatIf If this switch is enabled, no actions are performed but informational messages will be displayed that explain what would happen if the command were to run. .PARAMETER Confirm If this switch is enabled, you will be prompted for confirmation before executing any operations that change state. .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: DataGeneration Author: Sander Stad (@sqlstad, sqlstad.nl) Website: https://dbatools.io Copyright: (c) 2018 by dbatools, licensed under MIT License: MIT https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT .LINK https://dbatools.io/Get-DbaRandomizedType .EXAMPLE Get-DbaRandomizedType Get all the types and subtypes .EXAMPLE Get-DbaRandomizedType -Pattern "Addr" Find all the types and sub types based on a pattern .EXAMPLE Get-DbaRandomizedType -RandomizedType Person Find all the sub types for Person .EXAMPLE Get-DbaRandomizedType -RandomizedSubType LastName Get all the types and subtypes that known by "LastName" #> [CmdLetBinding()] param( [string[]]$RandomizedType, [string[]]$RandomizedSubType, [string]$Pattern, [switch]$EnableException ) begin { # Get all the random possibilities try { $randomizerTypes = Import-Csv (Resolve-Path -Path "$script:PSModuleRoot\bin\randomizer\en.randomizertypes.csv") } catch { Stop-Function -Message "Could not import randomized types" -Continue } } process { if (Test-FunctionInterrupt) { return } $types = @() if ($Pattern) { $types += $randomizerTypes | Where-Object Type -match $Pattern $types += $randomizerTypes | Where-Object SubType -match $Pattern } else { $types = $randomizerTypes } if ($RandomizedType) { $types = $types | Where-Object Type -in $RandomizedType } if ($RandomizedSubType) { $types = $types | Where-Object SubType -in $RandomizedSubType } $types | Select-Object Type, SubType -Unique | Sort-Object Type, SubType } } |
