<# .SYNOPSIS Gets a parameter's alias .DESCRIPTION Gets the alias used to call a parameter in a sentence. This can be useful for inferring subtle differences based off of word choice, as in `all functions matching Sentence` # Returns all functions that match Sentence Compared to: `all functions where Sentence` # Returns all functions that are Sentences .EXAMPLE {* pid $pid}.Ast.EndBlock.Statements[0].PipelineElements[0].AsSentence((Get-Command Get-Process)).GetParameterAlias('id') #> param( # The name of one or more parameters. [string[]] $Parameter ) $parameterWildcards = $Parameter -match '[\*\?]' @(:nextClause foreach ($sentenceClause in $this.Clauses) { if (-not $sentenceClause.ParameterName) { continue } if ($parameter -contains $sentenceClause.ParameterName) { $sentenceClause.Name } elseif ($parameterWildcards) { foreach ($wildcard in $parameterWildcards) { if ($sentenceClause.ParameterName -like $wildcard) { $sentenceClause.Name continue nextClause } } } }) |
