Windows PowerShell module allowing management of SDL Tridion (Content Management System) from the command line

This project contains Windows PowerShell modules that allow you to easily interact with the SDL Tridion / SDL Web content management system and perform various administrative tasks.

Currently supported Tridion versions: 2011 SP1, 2013 GA, 2013 SP1 and Web 8.

Installation

The quickest way to install is to use the provided script:

1. Open a Windows PowerShell (v3.0+) console.
2. Ensure that you can run unsigned local scripts, by calling Set-ExecutionPolicy. We recommend the RemoteSigned policy. See Using the Set-ExecutionPolicy Cmdlet for more information.
3. Start the installation by executing the following line:

iwr "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pkjaer/tridion-powershell-modules/master/CoreService/Installation/Install.ps1" | iex

And if you wish to get the Tridion-Alchemy module as well (for managing and developing Alchemy plugins):

iwr "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pkjaer/tridion-powershell-modules/master/Alchemy/Installation/Install.ps1" | iex

This will download the latest release, install it, and load the modules. Afterwards, you may wish to run the verification script ('Verify.ps1') located in the Installation folders -- or simply start using the available commands.

Should the above steps fail to work for you, please let us know! As an alternative to the installation script, follow the step-by-step instructions on the Manual Installation page.

You can get the list of all of the commands by typing this in PowerShell: Get-Command -Module Tridion-CoreService,Tridion-Alchemy

Each of the commands also has help information available (including examples), which you can read by calling Get-Help nameOfCommand (e.g. Get-Help Get-TridionUser).
