Get-AzureRmWebApp - unable to pipe into select-object

[mjyeaney]

Using AzureRM.Websites, v.1.0.2, I am unable to execute the following command:

Get-AzureRmWebApp | select Name

This returns an empty set of results. However, if we drill down one additional level in the object structure, the following command works:

Get-AzureRmWebApp | foreach { $_.Name }

Expectation is for this to work as other similar cmdlets do. For example:

Get-AzureRmVM | select Name

I can reproduce this on AzureRM.Websites v2.2.0.

Looks like it's because Get-AzureRmWebApp outputs a list to the pipeline:

PS > Get-AzureRmWebApp | gm
   TypeName: System.Collections.Generic.List`1[[Microsoft.Azure.Management.WebSites.Models.Site, Microsoft.Azure.Management.Websites, Version=1.0.0.2, Culture=neutral, 
PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35]]

where Get-AzureRmVm outputs a VM

PS > get-azurermvm | gm
   TypeName: Microsoft.Azure.Commands.Compute.Models.PSVirtualMachine

Took a look at the differences
https://github.com/Azure/azure-powershell/blob/dev/src/ResourceManager/Websites/Commands.Websites/Cmdlets/WebApps/GetAzureWebApp.cs#L148-L172

https://github.com/Azure/azure-powershell/blob/dev/src/ResourceManager/Compute/Commands.Compute/VirtualMachine/Operation/GetAzureVMCommand.cs#L154

Looks like WriteObject can take a bool enumerateCollection arg, so I think this line in GetAzureWebApp:

            WriteObject(list);

just needs to be changed to

            WriteObject(list, true);

to fix this.

As a work around you can use:

PS > $list = Get-AzureRMWebApp
PS > $list | Select Name

I agree though the Cmdlet needs to be fixed to output the collection rather than the list.

@Nking92 @LukaszStem would you mind taking a look at this issue? I believe the solution @jonsabo has provided will fix this problem.
