PowerShell+ 2019 - PowerShell + AutoRest + Swagger = Instant Modules by Adam Murray

Have you ever wanted to abstract a RESTful Web Service with a PowerShell module? With AutoRest, you can generate easy-to-use PowerShell cmdlets directly from the REST Swagger document. Whether you’re creating your own RESTful Web Service or consuming an existing service, this capability can be beneficial. In this demo-packed session, I’ll walk attendees through the following steps: * how to use Swagger and the OpenAPI specification to document RESTful Web Services * how to set up AutoRest * how to use AutoRest to generate modules * how to avoid some of the “gotchas” * how to create SDKs for multiple languages In this 45-minute session, attendees will gain a solid understanding of the capabilities and use cases for AutoRest. They’ll see a module being generated from a Web Service and how they can then use that module to interact with the Web Service. Finally, they’ll be aware of some of the issues to watch out for and some of AutoRest’s limitations. PowerShell Summit videos are recorded on a "best effort" basis. We use a room mic to capture as much room audio as possible, with an emphasis on capturing the speaker. Our recordings are made in a way that minimizes overhead for our speakers and interruptions to our live audience. These recordings are meant to preserve the presentations' information for posterity, and are not intended to be a substitute for attending the Summit in person. These recordings are not intended as professional video training products. We hope you find these videos useful - the equipment used to record these was purchased using generous donations from members of the PowerShell community.
