Requirements

The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.

PowerShellGet module

Parameters

Parameter	Choices/Defaults	Comments
name string	Default: "*"	The name of the script. Supports any wildcard pattern supported by `Get-InstalledScript`. If omitted then all scripts will returned.
repository string		The name of the PSRepository the scripts were installed from. This acts as a filter against the scripts that would be returned based on the name option.
