Deployment Method: Individual Install, Upgrade, & Uninstall
To install dbatools (PowerShell Module), run the following command from the command line or from PowerShell:
To upgrade dbatools (PowerShell Module), run the following command from the command line or from PowerShell:
To uninstall dbatools (PowerShell Module), run the following command from the command line or from PowerShell:
Deployment Method:
This applies to both open source and commercial editions of Chocolatey.
1. Enter Your Internal Repository Url
(this should look similar to https://community.chocolatey.org/api/v2/)
2. Setup Your Environment
1. Ensure you are set for organizational deployment
Please see the organizational deployment guide
2. Get the package into your environment
Option 1: Cached Package (Unreliable, Requires Internet - Same As Community)-
Open Source or Commercial:
- Proxy Repository - Create a proxy nuget repository on Nexus, Artifactory Pro, or a proxy Chocolatey repository on ProGet. Point your upstream to https://community.chocolatey.org/api/v2/. Packages cache on first access automatically. Make sure your choco clients are using your proxy repository as a source and NOT the default community repository. See source command for more information.
- You can also just download the package and push it to a repository Download
-
Open Source
-
Download the package:
Download - Follow manual internalization instructions
-
-
Package Internalizer (C4B)
-
Run: (additional options)
choco download dbatools --internalize --version=0.9.381 --source=https://community.chocolatey.org/api/v2/
-
For package and dependencies run:
choco push --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'"
- Automate package internalization
-
Run: (additional options)
3. Copy Your Script
choco upgrade dbatools -y --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'" --version="'0.9.381'" [other options]
See options you can pass to upgrade.
See best practices for scripting.
Add this to a PowerShell script or use a Batch script with tools and in places where you are calling directly to Chocolatey. If you are integrating, keep in mind enhanced exit codes.
If you do use a PowerShell script, use the following to ensure bad exit codes are shown as failures:
choco upgrade dbatools -y --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'" --version="'0.9.381'"
$exitCode = $LASTEXITCODE
Write-Verbose "Exit code was $exitCode"
$validExitCodes = @(0, 1605, 1614, 1641, 3010)
if ($validExitCodes -contains $exitCode) {
Exit 0
}
Exit $exitCode

}
Requires Puppet Chocolatey Provider module. See docs at https://forge.puppet.com/puppetlabs/chocolatey.
4. If applicable - Chocolatey configuration/installation
See infrastructure management matrix for Chocolatey configuration elements and examples.
This package was approved as a trusted package on 26 Jul 2018.
dbatools logo dbatools is sort of like a command-line SQL Server Management Studio. The project initially started out as Start-SqlMigration.ps1, but has now grown into a collection of over 300 commands that help automate SQL Server tasks and encourage best practices.
NOTE: This module requires a minimum of PowerShell v3.
NOTE: This is an automatically updated package. If you find it is out of date by more than a week, please contact the maintainer(s) and let them know the package is no longer updating correctly.

# Current library Version the module expects
$currentLibraryVersion = New-Object System.Version(0, 10, 0, 57)
<#
Library Versioning 101:
The version consists of 4 segments: Major, Minor, Build, Revision
Major: Should always be equal to the main version number of the dbatools PowerShell project.
Minor: Tracks major features within a major release. Increment on new features or significant structural changes. Reset to 0 when incrementing the major version.
Build: Tracks lesser functionality upgrades. Increment on all minor upgrades, reset to 0 when introducing a new major feature or major version.
Revision: Tracks all changes. Every single update to the library - bugfix, feature or redesign - increments the revision counter. It is never reset to 0.
Updating the library version number:
When changing the library version number, it is necessary to do so in TWO places:
- At the top of this very library.ps1
- Within AssemblyInfo.cs
These two locations MUST have matching version numbers, otherwise it will keep building the library and complaining about version mismatch!
#>
<#
#---------------------------------#
# Runtime configuration variables #
#---------------------------------#
The library recognizes a few external variables in order to customize its behavior on import.
$dbatools_strictsecuritymode
Setting this to $true will cause dbatools to always load the library directly from the module directory.
This is more secure, but less convenient when it comes to updating the module, as all consoles using it must be closed.
$dbatools_alwaysbuildlibrary
Setting this to $true will cause the module to always build the library from source, rather than reuse the binaries.
Mostly for developers working on the library.
#>
#region Test whether the module had already been imported

Dear User,
in the name of the dbatools team I apologize for the inconvenience.
Generally, when something goes wrong we try to handle and interpret in an
understandable manner. Unfortunately, something went awry with importing
our main library, so all the systems making this possible would not be initialized
yet. We have taken great pains to avoid this issue but this notification indicates
we have failed.
Please, in order to help us prevent this from happening again, visit us at:
https://github.com/sqlcollaborative/dbatools/issues
and tell us about this failure. All information will be appreciated, but
especially valuable are:
- Exports of the exception: $Error | Export-Clixml error.xml -Depth 4
- Screenshots
- Environment information (Operating System, Hardware Stats, .NET Version,
PowerShell Version and whatever else you may consider of potential impact.)
Again, I apologize for the inconvenience and hope we will be able to speedily
resolve the issue.
Best Regards,
Friedrich Weinmann
aka "The guy who made most of The Library that Failed to import"
