PowerShell Version 5 New Feature: SkipLast Parameter added to Select-Object
I'm picking up where I left off in
my last blog article
on the new features in the PowerShell version 5 preview. Today I be covering a new parameter,
SkipLast
that has been added to the Select-Object
cmdlet.
I have a text file where I saved a list of the available packages in the default OneGet Chocolatey repository. There are a total of 1893 items in this file:
1(Get-Content -Path C:\demo\packages.txt).count
I'll use the new SkipLast
parameter to skip the last 1885 items:
1Get-Content -Path C:\demo\packages.txt | Select-Object -SkipLast 1885
This blog article is one of many that I've written and will be writing about the new features in PowerShell version 5. You can find my other blog articles on PowerShell version 5 here.
