Convert a PowerShell expression into a splatting equivalent.
Convert-CommandToHashtable [-Text] <String> [<CommonParameters>]This command is intended to convert a long PowerShell expression with named parameters into a splatting alternative. The central concept is that you are editing a script file with a lengthy PowerShell expression with multiple parameters and you would like to turn it into splatting code.
PS C:\> $text ="Get-Winevent -listlog p* -computername SRV1 -erroraction stop"
PS C:\> Convert-CommandToHashtable -Text $text | Set-ClipboardThe $text variable might be a line of code from your script. The second line converts into a splatting sequence and copies it to the Windows clipboard so you can paste it back into your script. You could create a VS Code task sequence using this function.
