如何获得在Linux上运行的功能齐全的PowerShell？

Question

Getting powershell running on Linux is straightforward. Unfortunately this is based on .NetCore which excludes a lot a important functionality and modules eg the DNSServer module. Is there a workaround to obtain a fully functional PowerShell installation on linux including modules that don't appear in .NetCore (specifically DNSServer) ?

Answer 1

Modules like DNSServer are owned and maintained by the DNS team within Microsoft and aren't part of the PowerShell project itself. This also means they aren't open source.

On top of that, for DNSServer specifically, that module uses WMI under the hood (I'd go so far as to say it's a thin wrapper around the WMI calls), and since WMI is also not open source and not available on Linux I'd say there's little chance of this module making there any time soon.

As a general case, your best bet is probably to use PSRemoting from Linux to a Windows machine that has the modules you want, then either use Implicit Remoting ( Import-PSSession ) or just straight up make remote calls with Invoke-Command .
