Formal Remote ISE Connections

Posted on May 3, 2016

I have updated my PowerShell tools that make it easier to open up a remote tab in the PowerShell ISE.  The standard approach is limited and doesn't allow for things like using SSL or different ports.  I have had the ISERemoteTab project up on GitHub for awhile.

I recently added a WPF-based form to make it easier to make remote connections.

remoteIsetabYou can enter in a single computer or multiple computers.  Although, if you use multiple computers, the same settings will apply to all of them. But once I hit connect, I get new remote tabs.

remotetabsIn this example I am using the remote profile script feature to run a set of PowerShell commands after making the remote connection.

In my ISE profile script I added these lines to create a new Add-On shortcut.

$Display = "New Remote ISE Tab"
$Action = {New-ISEREmoteForm}
$Shortcut = "Ctrl+Shift+T"

$psise.CurrentPowerShellTab.AddOnsMenu.Submenus.Add($Display,$Action,$shortcut) | Out-Null

All of this has also been published to the PowerShell Gallery. If you are running PowerShell 5 you can use Install-Module to install  ISERemoteTab.

I hope you'll try it out and let me know what you think. If you run into bugs or have feature requests, please post them on the Github project site.
