# Assets
$ModuleName = [string] 'SetBIOS'


# Old PowerShellGet
## Remove conflicting modules
Remove-Module -Name 'PackageManagement','PowerShellGet','PSReadline' -Force -ErrorAction 'SilentlyContinue'

## Import relevant module
Import-Module -Name 'PowerShellGet' -RequiredVersion '2.2.5'; Get-Module

## Uninstall $ModuleName if present
if ($([array](Get-Module -ListAvailable -Name $ModuleName)).'Count' -gt 0) {Uninstall-Module -Name $ModuleName -AllVersions}

## Install $ModuleName with PowerShellGet v2.2.5
Install-Module -Name $ModuleName -Scope 'AllUsers' -Repository 'PSGallery' -Force

## Check if PowerShellGet v2.2.5 will update it.
## It righfully returns that no update is available.
Update-Module -Name $ModuleName -Scope 'AllUsers' -Verbose



# New PowerShellGet
## Remove conflicting modules
Remove-Module -Name 'PackageManagement','PowerShellGet','PSReadline' -Force -ErrorAction 'SilentlyContinue'

## Import PowerShellGet v3.0.17-beta
Import-Module -Name ('{0}\powershellget.3.0.17-beta17\PowerShellGet.psd1' -f [System.Environment]::GetFolderPath('Desktop')); Get-Module

## Check if PowerShellGet v3.0.17-beta will update the module in question, once.
## Installs $ModuleName, same versions that are already installed.
Update-PSResource -Name $ModuleName -Scope 'AllUsers' -Repository 'PSGallery' -TrustRepository -Verbose

## Check if PowerShellGet v3.0.17-beta will update the module in question, 2nd time.
## It says $ModuleName is up to date.
Update-PSResource -Name $ModuleName -Scope 'AllUsers' -Repository 'PSGallery' -TrustRepository -Verbose

## Uninstall, because after PowerShellGet v3 installed it, PowerShellGet v2 can't see it or remove it
Uninstall-PSResource -Name $ModuleName -Scope 'AllUsers' -Verbose
