Powershell magic in WSP deployment

In this blog I just want to explain how to write a powershell script when you have multiple wsp’s in file location and you need to deploy in one shot.

Follow the steps to achieve this :

1. Open the Notepad,
   
   Write the code below,
   
   #pass the source path "$ source",e.g d:\wspfolder\ 
   $source ="D:\wspfolder\"
   $files = Get-ChildItem $source | where {$_.extension -eq ".wsp"}
   foreach($my_file in Get-ChildItem $files){Add-SPSolution -LiteralPath $my_file.FullName}
   foreach($my_file in Get-ChildItem $files){Install-SPSolution -Identity $my_file.Name -AllWebApplications -GACDeployment}
   
   
2. Save the file  with some name and having extension ".ps1"(e.g  installer.ps1).
   
   
3. Next task to create Batch file.Open the Notepad again,write the following code,
   
   Powershell.exe -Command Set-ExecutionPolicy "Bypass"
   Powershell.exe -Command "& {d:\wspfolder\Installer.ps1}"
   Pause
   
   
4. Save As file with name "install.bat".
   
   
5. Now its done. Hope you like this blog and will save your time too.
