Include psm1 files in windows project build

Post by mattholden »

We are trying to create a psm1 file that we will import in to many of our oompanies scripts so we don't have to manually add functions to each script individually. Our question is if we include this file in a form project will the psm1 be included within the exe build. if not would it be better for us to save module as a ps1 file to be imported with each build?

Fro single use functions I recommend putting them in the "globals" file of the project.

For Company wide functions you should build a module and distribute it via Group Policy independent of the scripts you produce.
