LIB POWERSHELL

• Module Name: LIB POWERSHELL
  • Description: VGL POWERSHELL LIBRARY
    • Purpose: Library to provide easy implementation of various powershell tasks

This is a pure VGL implementation to call powershell task such as sending emails. It removes the need for third party programs like BLAT.

The routines are suitable for both foreground and background operations. This means they can be invoked from either MODE BACKGROUND or MODE INTERACTIVE.

This library does not have a user interface.

MANUAL

Dependencies

This lib checks if powershell is installed on the target systems. If Powershell cannot be found the routines will not be executed

Installation

Routines in this library are GLOBAL. Add and compile this library and call the routines whenever desired.

All routines accept the necessary parameters as values to avoid forcing the programmer to code set names.

Example

JOIN LIBRARY lib_powershell

ps_sendmail(
	"my@mail.com",
	 "destination@mail.com",
	 "This is the email subject",
	 "This is the email body text",
	 "mail.mymailserver.extension",
	 "25",
	 "my@mail.com",
	 "Totally not my password"
)

The above example joins the powershell library, thus making it's routines available and then sends an email using the ps_sendmail routine.
