function Measure-Count { <# .Synopsis Measures the count of the input objects. .Description Measures the count of all input objects--or one or more properties thereof--that are non-null. Null objects and properties are ignored. If there are zero non-null input objects, then the count is zero. .Parameter Property Specifies one or more properties to measure. If so, then for each property the count of objects with that property (whose value may be null) is measured. If not, then the count of non-null objects is measured, which may be zero. .Inputs System.Management.Automation.PSObject You can pipe objects to `Measure-Count`. .Outputs System.Int32, Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.GenericMeasureInfo If more than one property is specified, then the command returns a GenericMeasureInfo object for each property. Otherwise, it returns an int. .Notes The InputObject parameter should not be invoked directly. Rather, input should piped to this command. This command is a wrapper function of `Measure-Object`. .Link Measure-Object #> [CmdletBinding(RemotingCapability='None')] [OutputType([System.Int32], [Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.GenericMeasureInfo])] param( [Parameter(ValueFromPipeline=$true)] [PSObject] $InputObject, [Parameter(Position=0)] [ValidateNotNullOrEmpty()] [PSPropertyExpression[]] $Property ) end { try { $genericMeasureInfo = if ($PSBoundParameters.ContainsKey('Property')) { $Input | Measure-Object -Property:$Property } else { $Input | Measure-Object } if ($Property.Count -gt 1) { $genericMeasureInfo } else { $genericMeasureInfo.Count } } catch { throw } } } Set-Alias -Name 'count' -Value 'Measure-Count' -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue |
