PSScriptAnalyzer is a static code checker for PowerShell modules and scripts. PSScriptAnalyzer checks the quality of PowerShell code by running a set of rules. The rules are based on PowerShell best practices identified by PowerShell Team and the community. It generates DiagnosticResults (errors and warnings) to inform users about potential code defects and suggests possible solutions for improvements.
PSScriptAnalyzer ships with a collection of built-in rules that check various aspects of PowerShell code such as:
- The presence of uninitialized variables
- Use of PSCredential type
- Use of Invoke-Expression
- And many more
You can choose which rules to include or exclude for your modules and scripts. PSScriptAnalyzer also has the ability to fix the formatting of your code. This helps you produce code that conforms to a standard style, is easier to read, and is more maintainable.
