I use different $profile settings when I’m doing screencasts/live demos, and a different one for script and project development.

Becomes too taxing to keep switching profile settings, especially when each project I use may come with it’s own settings.

Incredibly Simple CLI script. Just specify the file (.ps1) you’re looking to place in your profile folder, and the script would take care of the rest.

Warns you before you overwrite an existing file.

Let’s you reset everything back to ‘normal’ (no profile files) if you’d like to have them go back to normal.

Simply uses ‘os’, ‘argparse’, ‘shutil’ libraries.

cd into your project directory.

create a ‘custom-profile.ps1’ file with the required settings you’re looking for.

run ‘powfile -replace true’ to let the script work.

replace: Replacement file that exists in current folder, to be copied into the powershell folder.

reset : Reset file back to default. true

profile : Custom powershell profile path, if you’re using a path that’s not %userprofile%/Documents/WindowsPowerShell.

This package was created with Cookiecutter and the audreyr/cookiecutter-pypackage project template.
