Description
Summary of the new feature / enhancement
Find-PSResource should return info telling us if a module is replaced, superseded, deprecated and similar.
Background
I don't know where this has to be solved:
- PowerShell Gallery
- Module maintainer
- PSResourceGet
The problem still remains: Some modules are deprecated or replaced/superseded, with no way of telling.
To be sure I got all relevant modules I do (simplified) Find-Module -Name '<parent>.*', but for Az.* it will return replaced/deprecated modules too.
Example of superseded modules you can't tell is superseded with Find-PSResource
| Was | Became | Source |
|---|---|---|
AzureRM, AzureRM.* |
Az, Az.* |
src |
Az.Insights |
Az.Monitor |
src |
Az.Profile |
Az.Accounts |
src |
ThreadJob |
Microsoft.PowerShell.ThreadJob |
src |
Example output with Microsoft.PowerShell.PSResourceGet v1.0.1
Input
Find-PSResource -Repository 'PSGallery' -Type 'Module' -Name 'Az.Profile' | ConvertTo-Json | Set-ClipboardOutput
