Function Start-RSJob { <# .SYNOPSIS Starts a background job using runspaces. .DESCRIPTION This will run a command in the background, leaving your console available to perform other tasks. This uses runspaces in runspacepools which allows for throttling of running jobs. As the jobs are finished, they will automatically dispose of each runspace and allow other runspace jobs in queue to begin based on the throttling of the runspacepool. This is available on PowerShell V3 and above. By doing this, you can use the $Using: variable to take variables in the local scope and apply those directly into the scriptblock of the background runspace job. .PARAMETER ScriptBlock The scriptblock that holds all of the commands which will be run in the background runspace. You must specify at least one Parameter in the Param() to account for the item that is being piped into Start-Job. .PARAMETER FilePath This is the path to a file containing code that will be run in the background runspace job. .PARAMETER InputObject The object being piped into Start-RSJob or applied via the parameter. .PARAMETER Name The name of a background runspace job .PARAMETER Batch Name of the batch of RSJobs that will be run .PARAMETER ArgumentList List of values that will be applied at the end of the argument list in the Param() statement. .PARAMETER Throttle Number of concurrent running runspace jobs which are allowed at a time. .PARAMETER ModulesToImport A collection of modules that will be imported into the background runspace job. .PARAMETER PSSnapinsToImport A collection of PSSnapins that will be imported into the background runspace job. .PARAMETER FunctionsToImport A collection of functions that will be imported for use with a background runspace job. .PARAMETER FunctionFilesToImport A collection of files containing custom functions that will be imported into the background runspace job. .PARAMETER VariablesToImport A collection of variables that will be imported for use with a background runspace job. If used, $using:variable not expanded ! .NOTES Name: Start-RSJob Author: Boe Prox/Max Kozlov .EXAMPLE Get-ChildItem -Directory | Start-RSjob -Name {$_.Name} -ScriptBlock { Param($Directory) Write-Verbose $_ $Sum = (Get-ChildItem $Directory.FullName -Recurse -Force -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue | Measure-Object -Property Length -Sum).Sum [pscustomobject]@{ Name = $Directory.Name SizeMB = ([math]::round(($Sum/1MB),2)) } } Id Name State HasMoreData HasErrors Command -- ---- ----- ----------- --------- ------- 13 Contacts Running False False ... 14 Desktop Running False False ... 15 Documents Running False False ... 16 Downloads Running False False ... 17 Favorites Running False False ... 18 Links Running False False ... 19 Music Running False False ... 20 OneDrive Running False False ... 21 Pictures Running False False ... 22 Saved Games Running False False ... 23 Searches Running False False ... 24 Videos Running False False ...
