How to delete Invoke-Build

Invoke-Build is a build and test automation tool which invokes tasks defined in PowerShell v2.0+ scripts. It is similar to psake but arguably easier to use and more powerful. It is complete, bug free, well covered by tests.

Features

• Incremental tasks with effectively processed inputs and outputs.
• Persistent builds which can be resumed after interruptions.
• Parallel builds in separate workspaces with common stats.
• Batch invocation of tests composed as tasks.
• Ability to define new classes of tasks.

Invoke-Build can invoke the current task from a build script being composed in ISE and VSCode, see Invoke-TaskFromISE.ps1 and Invoke-TaskFromVSCode.ps1.

Invoke-Build can be used as the task runner in VSCode with tasks maintained in a PowerShell build script instead of tasks.json, see New-VSCodeTask.ps1.

Invoke-Build v3.0.1 is cross-platform with PowerShell v6.0.0-alpha.

Notes

• This package includes Invoke-TaskFromISE, Invoke-TaskFromVSCode, New-VSCodeTask and Invoke-Build.ArgumentCompleters supportive scripts. To setup launch profile in VSCode for build.ps1 files, use the following script path in launch.json:

  "script": "${env:ChocolateyInstall}/lib/invoke-build/tools/Invoke-TaskFromVSCode.ps1"
  

• Its recommended to include the following in your PowerShell $PROFILE:

  sal ib Invoke-Build
  & $env:ChocolateyInstall\lib\invoke-build\tools\Invoke-Build.ArgumentCompleters.ps1
