vexx32/PSKoans v0.66.0

v0.66 - Improvements to Show-Karma -Contemplate

on GitHub

Breaking Changes

Show-Karma -Contemplate Changes

• Show-Karma -Contemplate / -Meditate now open the current koan file instead of just the koan directory. Massive thanks to @arefg's awesome contributions to getting this feature working.
• Added some handling for common editors known to be able to handle jumping to specific lines in specific files.
• Fallback behaviour is just to open the file in the currently set editor.
  • To set your editor, use Set-PSKoanSetting -Name Editor -Value $editorCommandLine. If the executable is on PATH, you just need the name. If not, you can supply a full path to the executable you want PSKoans to pass the file reference to.

New Features

Show-Karma -Library

• Previous -Meditation behaviour was moved to a -Library parameter - this will open the koan directory as per normal.

New Koans Module - ActiveDirectory

• Currently only contains an AboutFiltering topic. (Thanks to @indented-automation for his excellent work here!)
• These koans require that you have the ActiveDirectory PowerShell module installed and an available Domain Controller to query.
• Get started on these koans with Show-Karma -Module ActiveDirectory, or use Show-Karma -IncludeModule ActiveDirectory to include these koans alongside the standard set.
• Because it requires an additional module to be installed, these koans will not be evaluated by default.

New Koans

• Added AboutXml topic. (Thanks, @indented-automation!)

Improvements and Fixes

• Improved explanations around rounding methods employed in PS (Thank you, @jschpp!)
• Updated the README with some nice images (Thanks you @potatoqualitee for the suggestion!)
• Fixed some issues in AboutBitwiseOperations (Thank you, @indented-automation!)
• Fixed assorted more minor issues in various koan topics.
• Fixed an issue in AboutConditionals with the placement of some of the blanks. (Thanks @asherber!)
