Installing the LanguagePx module

LanguagePx is dependent on the SnippetPx module. You can download and install the latest versions of LanguagePx and SnippetPx using any of the following methods:

PowerShellGet

If you don't know what PowerShellGet is, it's the way of the future for PowerShell package management. If you're curious to find out more, you should read this: Package Management for PowerShell Modules with PowerShellGet

Note that these commands require that you have the PowerShellGet module installed on the system where they are invoked.

NOTE: COMING SOON (PowerShellGet support will be added once LanguagePx has a stable release and is no longer purely experimental)

# If you don’t have LanguagePx installed already and you want to install it for all
# all users (recommended, requires elevation)
Install-Module LanguagePx,SnippetPx

# If you don't have LanguagePx installed already and you want to install it for the
# current user only
Install-Module LanguagePx,SnippetPx -Scope CurrentUser

# If you have LanguagePx installed and you want to update it
Update-Module

PowerShell 4.0 or Later

To install from PowerShell 4.0 or later, open a native PowerShell console (not ISE, unless you want it to take longer), and invoke one of the following commands:

# If you want to install LanguagePx for all users or update a version already installed
# (recommended, requires elevation for new install for all users)
& ([scriptblock]::Create((iwr -uri http://tinyurl.com/Install-GitHubHostedModule).Content)) -ModuleName SnippetPx
& ([scriptblock]::Create((iwr -uri http://tinyurl.com/Install-GitHubHostedModule).Content)) -ModuleName LanguagePx -Branch master

# If you want to install LanguagePx for the current user
& ([scriptblock]::Create((iwr -uri http://tinyurl.com/Install-GitHubHostedModule).Content)) -ModuleName SnippetPx -Scope CurrentUser
& ([scriptblock]::Create((iwr -uri http://tinyurl.com/Install-GitHubHostedModule).Content)) -ModuleName LanguagePx -Scope CurrentUser -Branch master

Using the LanguagePx module

That should give you a good idea of what is included in this module. If you have ideas on what else you might like to see related to the creation of domain-specific languages, please let me know on the GitHub page.
