Out-ChartView should output graphs from the command line. Similar to the command Out GridView. The whole thing was created in 2017 for the former PowerShell Saturday in Germany Hannover.
First the module must be imported. This can also be in the module memory, for example. I am also planning to store a version in the PowerShell gallery.
#In the Script folder
Import-Module $($PSScriptRoot +'\WPFChart')
Import-Module 'YOURPATH\'+'\WPFChart')
#In the module path (PowerShell Gallerie)
Import-Module 'WPFChart'Now data can easily be output via the pipe. Here, for example, is a chart for the largest processes
# find the 10 lagest files
# Top Files
Get-childItem C:\windows | Where-Object {$_.length -gt 1} | Sort-Object -Property length -Descending | Select-Object -first 10 | `
Out-ChartView -xAxisPropertie "Name" -yAxisPropertie "Length" -Background "Green" -ChartArt ColumnSeries
{: width=250px}
A list of PowerShell objects is always passed. The names of the elements are defined with the parameters -xAxisProperties and yAxisProperties.
Get-ChildItem C:\Windows\ -File | Select-Object -Property Name,Length -First 5| Name | Length |
|---|---|
| bfsvc.exe | 78848 |
| bnetunin.exe | 86528 |
| bootstat.dat | 67584 |
| calc.exe | 798720 |
| comsetup.log | 7630 |
returns a list of objects @{Name=, Length=} and exactly this data is output.
$data = @()
for($i=0.0;$i -le (2*3.2) ;$i+=0.15){
$data += (new-object 'System.Collections.Generic.KeyValuePair[String, Double]' -ArgumentList "$i", ([math]::sin([double]$i) ))
}Such a list can also be created via PowerShell. Here for example a Hatrh with the elements Key and Double. This will then return a nice Sinus.
$data | Out-ChartView -xAxisPropertie Key -yAxisPropertie Value -Background "red" -ChartArt LineSeries -Linecolor "white"
