Pattern: Malformed close brace

Issue: -

Description

Close brace placement should follow a consistent style. It should be on a new line by itself and should not be followed by an empty line.

Configuration

    Rules = @{
        PSPlaceCloseBrace = @{
            Enable = $true
            NoEmptyLineBefore = $false
            IgnoreOneLineBlock = $true
            NewLineAfter = $true
        }
    }

Parameters

Enable: bool (Default value is $false)

Enable or disable the rule during ScriptAnalyzer invocation.

NoEmptyLineBefore: bool (Default value is $false)

Create violation if there is an empty line before a close brace.

IgnoreOneLineBlock: bool (Default value is $true)

Indicates if close braces in a one line block should be ignored or not. E.g. $x = if ($true) { "test" } else { "test test" } In the above example, if the property is set to true then the rule will not fire a violation.

NewLineAfter: bool (Default value is $true)

Indicates if a new line should follow a close brace. If set to true a close brace should be followed by a new line.
