Changelog for PSWorkItem

v1.3.0 - 2023-09-28 11:21:37

Added

• Added a parameter set to Set-PSWorkItem to let the user clear the description field.
• Added an option for the user to set the default number of days for a new PSWorkItem. The module default is 30 days, but the user can modify the global variable. The preference commands and format file have been updated to reflect this change.
• Added parameter validation for Name and Description parameters to reject values with apostrophes. Apostrophes break SQLite syntax.
• Added command Open-PSWorkItemConsole with an alias of wic. This will create a terminal user interface for managing PSWorkItems.
• Added script property type extension for PSWorkItemCategory called ANSIString to show the ANSI sequence.
• Added command Get-PSWorkItemPreference.
• Added localized string data for verbose, warning, and error messaging.
• Added parameter alias Date to DueDate in New-PSWorkItem.
• Updated module to let the user specify a default category for New-PSWorkItem. This default must be saved with Update-PSWorkItemPreference.

Changed

• Modified Complete-PSWorkItem, Set-PSWorkItem, and Remove-PSWorkItem to accept pipeline input from Get-PSWorkItem.
• Converted the -Category parameter in commands to a dynamic parameter. This allows autocompletion of values if the user specifies an alternate database path. This is a potential breaking change.
• Modified Path parameter in functions to use the newer PowerShell 7 compatible [ValidateScript()] attribute.
• Raised minimum PowerShell version to 7.3. This is a potential breaking change.
• Updated sample PSWorkItem database.
• Modified Get-PSWorkItemData to write System.Data.DataTable output.
• Moved verbose messaging to a private helper function.
• Modified layout of the default view for Get-PSWorkItemReport.
• Updated format file psWorkItemPreference.format.ps1xml.
• Help updates.
• Updated README.md
