Searching for all snippets in .xml topic (recursive)

[michal_novomesky]

I made a .ps1 script to help identifying all snippets.

Code: Select all

param(
	[Parameter()]
	[string]$topicFile
)

# Check if topicFile exists
if (!(Test-Path $topicFile -PathType Leaf)) {
	Write-Host "Document $topicFile in Topics does not exist" -ForegroundColor Red
	Exit
}

function Snippets {
    param (
		[Parameter()]
		$path,
		[Parameter()]
		$topicFile,
		[Parameter()]
		$depth
	)
	if (!(Test-Path $topicFile -PathType Leaf)) {
		Write-Host "Document $topicFile in Topics does not exist" -ForegroundColor Red
		Exit
	}
	# Load document to XML object
	try {
		[xml] $topic = Get-Content -Path $topicFile
	} catch {
		Write-Host "Document $topicFile parsing failed" -ForegroundColor Red
		Exit
	}
	$path = Split-Path -Path $topicFile
	$depth += 1
	$topic.SelectNodes("//snippet") | ForEach-Object {
		$snippetFile = $path
		$snippetFile += "\"
		$snippetFile += $_.src
		$snippetFile += ".xml"
		for ($i = 1; $i -lt $depth; $i++) {
			Write-Host "  " -NoNewline
		}
		Write-Host $_.src -NoNewline
		Write-Host ".xml"
		Snippets -topicFile $snippetFile -depth $depth
	}
}

$topic = Split-Path -Path $topicFile -Leaf
Echo "Snippets in $topic"
Snippets -topicFile $topicFile -depth 0

Output from Windows CMD:

Code: Select all
