ws-creator list

Templates (with their real source), described machines (with their provenance) and WSL distros. Get-Help Get-WsCreatorMachineList -Full

Terminal window
Get-WsCreatorMachineList [-Refresh]

Templates: from WS_CREATOR_TEMPLATES in order, then the module. A name found again in a later catalog is shown as shadowed: init uses the first one. Git catalogs are read from their local clone, without network; -Refresh fetches them first. Machines: “copied from <source>” when init created them, with “modified since” once their files no longer match TemplateHash; “written by hand” otherwise.

Parameter Type Required Position Description
-Refresh SwitchParameter false named Fetch the git catalogs before listing.
