Used to Grab Windows 10 Release Info and pull into PowerShell | |
Pulling Tables in was stolen from: https://www.leeholmes.com/blog/2015/01/05/extracting-tables-from-powershells-invoke-webrequest/ | |
#> | |
$URL = "https://winreleaseinfoprod.blob.core.windows.net/winreleaseinfoprod/en-US.html" | |
[Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.HtmlWebResponseObject]$WinReleaseWeb = Invoke-WebRequest -Uri $URL | |
## Extract the tables out of the web request | |
$tables = @($WinReleaseWeb.ParsedHtml.getElementsByTagName("TABLE")) | |
$table = $tables[0] #Table 0 = the Basic Table at top of Page with Release Numbers & Support Dates... change this number to get data from other tables | |
$titles = @() | |
$rows = @($table.Rows) | |
$TableData = $null | |
[System.Collections.ArrayList]$TableData = New-Object -TypeName psobject | |
## Go through all of the rows in the table | |
foreach($row in $rows) | |
{ | |
$cells = @($row.Cells) | |
## If we've found a table header, remember its titles | |
if($cells[0].tagName -eq "TH") | |
{ | |
$titles = @($cells | % { ("" + $_.InnerText).Trim() }) | |
continue | |
} | |
## If we haven't found any table headers, make up names "P1", "P2", etc. | |
if(-not $titles) | |
{ | |
$titles = @(1..($cells.Count + 2) | % { "P$_" }) | |
} | |
## Now go through the cells in the the row. For each, try to find the | |
## title that represents that column and create a hashtable mapping those | |
## titles to content | |
$resultObject = [Ordered] @{} | |
for($counter = 0; $counter -lt $cells.Count; $counter++) | |
{ | |
$title = $titles[$counter] | |
if(-not $title) { continue } | |
$resultObject[$title] = ("" + $cells[$counter].InnerText).Trim() | |
} | |
## And finally cast that hashtable to a PSCustomObject | |
[PSCustomObject] $resultObject | |
$TableData.Add($resultObject) | |
} |
