- 47. Online Conference June 17th and 18th 2015 Site Definitions in V. Studio • Not an answer by themselves • Define site content • Intended for reuse – Mismatch to one time need • CAML and PITA • Harder: Making it data driven • Change Site Def -> Recreate Site PowerShell & Excel & UI • Well suited for one time “blow in’s” • Define the site template in the UI or use standard • Save as a template – Even pub sites - sometimes • PowerShell has easy loops • Data driven from a CSV • Changes -> Mod Scripts
- 48. WWW.SPBIZCONF.COM The PowerShell Solution • Read the list of sites from CSV • Loop: – Create Site – Configure Site • Turn on Features • Set Master Pages, Welcome Page • Hide Libraries, set versioning • Adjust Navigation – Add Lists, Libraries, Pages, Web parts, etc • Loop again & again if needed – iterative!

Editor's Notes
- #4: Every SharePoint Developer needs this! Fast and Flexible Great for Last Mile Problems. The MSFT standard for Scripting.
- #5: Who would like another tool in their toolbox, one that will help them with SharePoint, but also with many other things? How about the swiss army knife of tools? It will make you a better developer or administrator!
- #7: Who here already has installed and PowerShell? Who’s using Server 2003? 2008? Win 2008 – It’s an OS Feature – “servermanagercmd –install PowerShell”
- #12: One is SharePoint aware, the other isn’t!
- #16: begin with a $ Name that Language… Similar to @variables in SQL, apparently also Ruby, PHP. Arrays start at 0
- #18: Mention Aliases
- #20: Get-Member examples
- #22: Can you imagine trying to do this in unix or vbscript?
- #25: Get-Help about_flow_control Mention that collections start at 0
- #35: Your mother doesn’t work here! You must clean up after yourself.
