How to set an alias in powershell that has parameters?
To set an alias in PowerShell that has parameters, you can use the New-Alias
cmdlet.
Here's an example of how to create an alias for the Get-ChildItem
cmdlet with the -Recurse
parameter:
vbnetNew-Alias -Name ls -Value Get-ChildItem -Recurse
In this example, the -Name
parameter specifies the name of the alias (ls
), and the -Value
parameter specifies the cmdlet to alias (Get-ChildItem
). The -Recurse
parameter is included as part of the -Value
parameter to specify that the -Recurse
parameter should be used when calling the aliased cmdlet.
Once you have created the alias, you can use it just like any other PowerShell cmdlet. For example, to list all files in the current directory and its subdirectories, you can run:
bashls
This will run the Get-ChildItem
cmdlet with the -Recurse
parameter, as specified in the alias definition.
