API Reference

Cmdlet

Get-ProjectConsistency

Namespace PSPublishModule

Inputs

None

Outputs

System.Object

Provides comprehensive analysis of encoding and line ending consistency across a project.

Remarks

This cmdlet combines encoding and line-ending analysis to provide a single “consistency” view of your repository. It is intended to be run before bulk conversions (encoding/line endings) and before packaging a module for release. For fixing issues during builds, use New-ConfigurationFileConsistency with -AutoFix enabled.

Examples

Authored help example

Analyze a PowerShell project with defaults

PS>


Get-ProjectConsistency -Path 'C:\MyProject' -ProjectType PowerShell

Reports encoding and line ending consistency using PowerShell-friendly defaults.

Analyze with explicit recommendations and detailed output

PS>


Get-ProjectConsistency -Path 'C:\MyProject' -ProjectType Mixed -RecommendedEncoding UTF8BOM -RecommendedLineEnding LF -ShowDetails

Useful when you want to enforce a policy (e.g. UTF-8 BOM for PS 5.1 compatibility and LF for cross-platform repos).

Export a detailed report to CSV

PS>


Get-ProjectConsistency -Path 'C:\MyProject' -ProjectType CSharp -RecommendedEncoding UTF8 -ExportPath 'C:\Reports\consistency-report.csv'

Exports the per-file details so you can review issues outside the console.
