powfile

A quick script to help you switch up powershell profile files, and reset them back to normal.

Why

• 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.

Features

• 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.

How To Use

• 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.

Options

• 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.

Credits

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