################################################################################ <# .SYNOPSIS Sets the default language and optionally the image directories for GenXdev.AI image metadata operations. .DESCRIPTION This function configures the global default language for image metadata operations in the GenXdev.AI module. Optionally, it can also set the global image directories. Both settings are persisted in the module's preference storage for use across sessions. .PARAMETER Language The default language to use for image metadata operations. This will be used by Remove-ImageMetaData, Update-AllImageMetaData, and Find-Image functions when no language is explicitly specified. .PARAMETER ImageDirectories An optional array of directory paths where image files are located. These directories will be used by GenXdev.AI functions for image discovery and processing operations if provided. .PARAMETER PreferencesDatabasePath Database path for preference data files. .PARAMETER SessionOnly When specified, stores the settings only in the current session (Global variables) without persisting to preferences. Settings will be lost when the session ends. .PARAMETER ClearSession When specified, clears only the session settings (Global variables) without affecting persistent preferences. .PARAMETER SkipSession Dont use alternative settings stored in session for AI preferences like Language, Image collections, etc. .EXAMPLE Set-AIMetaLanguage -Language "Spanish" -ImageDirectories @("C:\Images", "D:\Photos") Sets the language and image directories persistently in preferences. .EXAMPLE Set-AIMetaLanguage "French" Sets the language persistently in preferences. .EXAMPLE Set-AIMetaLanguage -Language "German" -SessionOnly Sets the language only for the current session (Global variable). .EXAMPLE Set-AIMetaLanguage -ClearSession Clears the session language setting (Global variable) without affecting persistent preferences. #> ################################################################################ function Set-AIMetaLanguage { [CmdletBinding(SupportsShouldProcess)] [Diagnostics.CodeAnalysis.SuppressMessageAttribute('PSAvoidGlobalVars', '')] [Diagnostics.CodeAnalysis.SuppressMessageAttribute('PSUseSingularNouns', '')] [Diagnostics.CodeAnalysis.SuppressMessageAttribute( 'PSUseDeclaredVarsMoreThanAssignments', '' )] param( ######################################################################## #
