\"talkbubble\"<\/a>A few days ago I posted a PowerShell script<\/a> that would generate a DSC configuration template. The idea was to generate all the code you might need and let you whittle it down to just what you need. On my primary system, I don't have any community or experimental DSC resources so my configuration template script only gets the default resources. Towards the end of the article I mentioned that another option would be to create snippets you could use in the PowerShell ISE. So I did.<\/p>\n

In PowerShell 4 Microsoft already includes a simple \u00a0DSC configuration snippet. In the ISE, \u00a0hit Ctrl+J and start typing DSC and you should see a snippet title DSC Configuration (simple). \u00a0I ran my configuration template script and then converted each resource into its own snippet just for you.<\/p>\n

Download\u00a0DSC-Resource-Snippets.zip<\/a> and extract the .ps1xml files to your Snippets directory, C:\\Users\\\\Documents\\WindowsPowerShell\\Snippets. That folder may not exist if you have not created of your own snippets. When you start the ISE and press Ctrl+J and start typing DSC you should see a snippet for each resource.<\/p>\n

\"dsc-snippets\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Find the one you want and press Enter. Use these snippets in conjunction with the DSC configuration snippet and you are practically finished with just a few key strokes. Edit and enjoy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
