Installing Chronometer

This is published in the Powershell Gallery

Install-Module Chronometer

Basic usage

Provide a script file and a command to execute.

$path = myscript.ps1
$Chronometer = Get-Chronometer -Path $path -Script {. .\myscript.ps1}
$Chronometer | Format-Chronometer

Things to know

The Path can be any ps1 and the script can run any command. Ideally, you would either execute the script or load the script and execute a command inside it.

Here is a more complex example:

$script = ls C:\workspace\PSGraph\PSGraph -Recurse -Filter *.ps1
$Chronometer = @{
    Path = $script.fullname
    Script = {Invoke-Pester C:\workspace\PSGraph}
}
$results = Get-Chronometer @Chronometer 
$results | Format-Chronometer
