PSItem/Where-PSItem.ps1
function Where-PSItem { <# .SYNOPSIS Selects objects from a collection based on their values. .DESCRIPTION The `Where-PSItem` command selects objects that have particular values from the collection of objects that is passed to it. The default parameter set (without any arguments other than InputObject), is equivalent to `Where-Object { $_ }`. `Where-PSItem` is aliased as `?_`. .EXAMPLE PS> -1..1 | Where-PSItem -1 1 .EXAMPLE PS> -1..1 | Where-PSItem -Not 0 .EXAMPLE PS> 'a', 'A', 'b', 'B' | Where-PSItem -EQ 'a' a A .EXAMPLE PS> 'a', 'A', 'b', 'B' | Where-PSItem -CEQ 'a' a .EXAMPLE PS> 'a', 'A', 'b', 'B' | Where-PSItem -NE 'a' b B .EXAMPLE PS> 'a', 'A', 'b', 'B' | Where-PSItem -CNE 'a' A b B .EXAMPLE PS> 'a', 'A', 'b', 'B' | Where-PSItem -GT 'a' b B .EXAMPLE PS> 'a', 'A', 'b', 'B' | Where-PSItem -CGT 'a' A B b .EXAMPLE PS> 'a', 'A', 'b', 'B' | Where-PSItem -LT 'B' a A .EXAMPLE PS> 'a', 'A', 'b', 'B' | Where-PSItem -CLT 'B' a A b .EXAMPLE PS> 'a', 'A', 'b', 'B' | Where-PSItem -GE 'A' a A b B .EXAMPLE PS> 'a', 'A', 'b', 'B' | Where-PSItem -CGE 'A' A b B .EXAMPLE PS> 'a', 'A', 'b', 'B' | Where-PSItem -LE 'b' a A b B .EXAMPLE PS> 'a', 'A', 'b', 'B' | Where-PSItem -CLE 'b' a A b .EXAMPLE PS> 'zero', 'one', 'two' | Where-PSItem -Like '*o' zero two .EXAMPLE PS> 'zero', 'one', 'two' | Where-PSItem -NotLike '*o' one .EXAMPLE PS> 'UPPER', 'lower' | Where-PSItem -CLike '*R' UPPER .EXAMPLE PS> 'UPPER', 'lower' | Where-PSItem -CNotLike '*R' lower .EXAMPLE PS> 'zero', 'one', 'two' | Where-PSItem -Match '.*o$' zero two .EXAMPLE PS> 'zero', 'one', 'two' | Where-PSItem -NotMatch '.*o$' one .EXAMPLE PS> 'UPPER', 'lower' | Where-PSItem -CMatch '.*R$' UPPER .EXAMPLE PS> 'UPPER', 'lower' | Where-PSItem -CNotMatch '.*R$' lower .EXAMPLE PS> @(0, 1), @(1, 2), @(2, 3) | Where-PSItem -Contains 3 2, 3 .EXAMPLE PS> @(0, 1), @(1, 2), @(2, 3) | Where-PSItem -NotContains 3 0, 1 1, 2 .EXAMPLE PS> @('UPPER', 'LOWER'), @('upper', 'lower') | Where-PSItem -CContains 'UPPER' UPPER, LOWER .EXAMPLE PS> @('UPPER', 'LOWER'), @('upper', 'lower') | Where-PSItem -CNotContains 'UPPER' upper, lower .EXAMPLE PS> -1, 1 | Where-PSItem -In 1..10 1 .EXAMPLE PS> -1, 1 | Where-PSItem -NotIn 1..10 -1 .EXAMPLE PS> 'uppercase', 'lowercase' | Where-PSItem -CIn 'UPPERCASE', 'lowercase' lowercase .EXAMPLE PS> 'uppercase', 'lowercase' | Where-PSItem -CNotIn 'UPPERCASE', 'lowercase' uppercase .EXAMPLE PS> 'one', 1 | Where-PSItem -Is string one .EXAMPLE PS> 'one', 1 | Where-PSItem -IsNot string 1 .NOTES The `Where-PSItem` command is similar to the `Where-Object` command. One difference is that `Where-PSItem` operates on input object values whereas `Where-Object` operates on input object property values. Another difference is that `Where-PSItem` accepts the comparison value directly through each faux-operator parameter, whereas `Where-Object` accepts the comparison value through a `-Value` parameter rather than the faux-operator parameters. .LINK Where-Object #> [CmdletBinding(PositionalBinding=$false, DefaultParameterSetName='bool', RemotingCapability='None')] param( # The input object to filter.
