PowerShell Core is a version of PowerShell that can be installed on Windows, Mac OS X (I covered it here) and Linux, i.e. Raspbian. For this blog post I am going to using my Raspberry Pi 4 and Raspbian (Buster).
“PowerShell is a task automation and configuration management framework from Microsoft, consisting of a command-line shell and associated scripting language.”
If you want to play with Microsoft Azure then you’ll want to take the PowerShell command line for a test drive as it can be better than the GUI driven web interface, and on Linux that means installing PowerShell Core.
Other interesting Mac alternatives to PowerShell are iTerm2 (Free, Open Source), fish (Free, Open Source), Terminal (Free) and Kitty terminal (Free, Open Source). PowerShell (including Windows PowerShell and PowerShell Core) is a task automation and configuration management framework from Microsoft, consisting of a command-line shell and associated scripting language built on the.NET. Howdy Folks, I have a simple query, being fond of using the Powershell in Windows Machines where I usually run the commands or install the modules and to do so we need to run the Windows PowerShell as an administrator!! But the same option is not available in MacOS. Though I know how to use the. As Alan mentioned in his session, we plan to release an early Tech Preview of PowerCLI for both Mac OS X and Linux as a VMware Fling shortly after VMworld. It is also very important to note that Microsoft PowerShell for Mac OS X & Linux which PowerCLI uses is just at an Alpha release milestone. If you don't want to use some 'powershell port', the best thing IMHO is to rewrite it into a macOS-compatible script, like bash scripts. Better yet, if you are planning to use both Windows and Mac, I recommend using cross-platform scripts (ex. Python) so that you only have to write your code once and execute (ideally) in both platforms. Visual Studio for Mac is an awesome tool to create Xamarin mobile apps. More than not mobile apps are using services. You can use.NET Core to create APIs but deploying them isn't so easy on a mac. Sure you can use the Azure CLI, but if you are working with mixed.
First up, make sure to run sudo apt-get update.
Next up we use wget to download the archive file that contains PowerShell Core for Raspbian.
wget https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/releases/download/v6.2.0/powershell-6.2.0-linux-arm32.tar.gz
Powershell Ubuntu
Note: Check https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell to check what the latest version is.
Once the archive file is download we need a location to extract it into.
mkdir ~/powershell
mkdir makes a directory, ~/ places it at the root of the folder tree and in this case the folder will be called powershell.
tar -xvf ./powershell-6.2.0-linux-arm32.tar.gz -C ~/powershell
The tar -xvf command extracts (-x) the file (f) verbosely (v) and copies it to the ~/powershell folder.
With all that complete, it’s time to run PowerShell Core.
~/powershell/pswsh
Powershell For Mac Os X
pswsh is PowerShell Core and it should now open.
To check which version is installed type:
Unix For Mac Os X
$psversiontable
Powershell Editor Mac Os X
With PowerShell Core installed and running the Azure module can be installed.
