Piping in a little later here, as had no requirements for PowerShell custom actions but now do.
Our product team is developing a Server app and require a bunch of PowerShell actions to be ran, some only require triggering commands that are used to log server info, but others are more detailed/complicated. So what I need to know, currently using WiX 3.7, is if it is best for the developers to simply create the PowerShell *.ps1 file or files and therefore I just have to have a custom action that calls them with parameters, or can the PS script be embedded in to the WiX fragments. Again I have no experience with PS and therefore would like to keep it simple or at least have the least amount of failure points in the install? Is there any good examples that show PS custom actions and/or embedding actions within the WiX installer? Thanks. -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/Is-using-Powershell-script-as-a-Wix-Custom-Action-a-good-idea-tp7584243p7595699.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Open source business process management suite built on Java and Eclipse Turn processes into business applications with Bonita BPM Community Edition Quickly connect people, data, and systems into organized workflows Winner of BOSSIE, CODIE, OW2 and Gartner awards http://p.sf.net/sfu/Bonitasoft _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users
