# If you find yourself needing to setup Paket often as can happen if you are using F# fsx scripting files often,
# you may want to create an easier to remember command. The easiest way to do this is to add a function call to
# your Powershell profile.
#
# Edit "C:\Users\<your username>\Documents\WindowsPowerShell\Microsoft.PowerShell_profile.ps1" on Windows
# or ~/.config/powershell/profile.ps1 on Mac and add the following function:

function New-Paket {
    New-Item -ItemType directory -Path ".paket"
    [Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [Net.SecurityProtocolType]::Tls12
    $tag = (Invoke-WebRequest -Uri https://api.github.com/repos/fsprojects/Paket/releases | ConvertFrom-Json)[0].tag_name
    $uri = " https://github.com/fsprojects/Paket/releases/download/" + $tag + "/paket.bootstrapper.exe"
    Invoke-WebRequest $uri  -OutFile .paket/paket.exe
