Pode.Web

This is still a work in progress, until v1.0.0 expect possible breaking changes in some releases.

💝 A lot of my free time, evenings, and weekends goes into making Pode happen; please do consider sponsoring as it will really help! 😊

This is a web template framework for use with the Pode PowerShell web server (v2.6.0+).

It allows you to build web pages purely with PowerShell - no HTML, CSS, or JavaScript knowledge required!

You can build charts, forms, tables, general text, tabs, login pages, etc. There's a light, dark, and terminal themes, and you can supply a custom CSS file.

📦 Libraries

The Pode.Web templates are built using Bootstrap, jQuery, Material Design Icons, Chart.js, and Highlight.js.

📘 Documentation

All documentation and tutorials for Pode.Web can be found here - this documentation will be for the latest release.

To see the docs for other releases, branches or tags, you can host the documentation locally. To do so you'll need to have the InvokeBuild module installed; then:

Invoke-Build Docs

Then navigate to http://127.0.0.1:8000 in your browser.

🔥 Quick Example

The below will build a web page that shows a chart with the top 10 processes running on your machine, and that auto-refreshes every minute:

Import-Module Pode.Web

Start-PodeServer {
    # add a simple endpoint
    Add-PodeEndpoint -Address localhost -Port 8090 -Protocol Http

    # set the use of the pode.web templates
    Use-PodeWebTemplates -Title 'Example' -Theme Dark

    # add the page
    Add-PodeWebPage -Name Processes -Icon Activity -Layouts @(
        New-PodeWebChart -Name 'Top Processes' -Type Bar -AutoRefresh -AsCard -ScriptBlock {
            Get-Process |
                Sort-Object -Property CPU -Descending |
                Select-Object -First 10 |
                ConvertTo-PodeWebChartData -LabelProperty ProcessName -DatasetProperty CPU
        }
    )
}
