DESCRIPTION
PowerShell is a key tool for both IT Pros and Developers working in SharePoint. This session will take a look at how PowerShell can be used to managed a farm, right from the start of the farm configuration and all the way through to a working site. The aim is to produce a series of scripts which can be used to automate rolling out a farm, your sites, customisations and content. This isn’t just for IT Pros, as PowerShell can and should be used by Developers to help with deploying sites and features. A large part of this session will focus on writing custom commands and showing some of the advantages of automating your deployments through scripts.

Agenda
• PowerShell – what, why and who?
• Out of the Box
• Writing custom functions
• Demo
• Build a SharePoint Farm
• Configure a site
• Deploy code and then content
PowerShell – what?
• Scripting language/framework
• Configuring Server technologies – SharePoint, Windows, Active Directory, Exchange....
• Blurs the lines between scripting (e.g. MS DOS) and code (e.g. C#)
PowerShell – why?
• Automation – if its scripted, you can run it again
• Documented – scripts can form documentation
• Simplified rolls outs – scripts do all the work
• Distinction between ‘Code’, ‘Content’ and ‘Configuration’
• Code = WSP, C#, DLL
• Content & Configuration = PowerShell
PowerShell – who?
• IT Admins & Dev
• One option – IT Admin manage scripts for server, farm and web app setup. Dev everything else.
• “Befriend a Dev”
• If SharePoint offers collaboration across a business, PowerShell is collaboration between IT Admins and Dev
Out of the box
• SharePoint comes with a number of very useful cmdlets
• New-SPWebApplication
• Get-SPSite
• Typically you can interchange the ‘verb’ – New, Get, Set
• Extend by wrapping custom logic – ifs, loops, etc
$managedAccount = Get-SPManagedAccount | ?{$_.UserName –eq “tsb\appPoolAccount”}
if (-not $managedAccount){
New-SPManagedAccount –credientials $credientials}
Writing custom scripts
• You can write custom cmdlets in code and compile
• Custom functions don’t require “code” (& compiling)
• Good news is you can access the SharePoint OM
• Bad news is you can access the SharePoint OM
• Good C# Code...can make good PowerShell
• Bad C# Code...will make bad PowerShell
• Treat PowerShell as Production Code
The Scripts
Create the Farm &
Central Admin Create our Web App &

Building our Farm & Site
What’s next?
• Extend scripts for other elements –
• Service Applications – search, meta data etc
• Other content – new Webs (site hierarchy)
• Permissions, users, documents etc
• Create EnvVars for UAT, Prod etc
• Write a Release Note & Document!
• Test Scripts!
• Remember, anytime you go to Central Admin or your site to make a change, think – should you script it?
