I am running a script that has multiple environments in it that can be selected from a window that pops up. the only problem I have run into is when I want to set up the script to copy from a source function that I have created and put it into multiple locations at once.
The part of the code I need help with is posted below.
$Source = Select-Boss
$destination = 'D:\parts','D:\labor','D:\time','D:\money'
"Calling Copy-Item with parameters source: '$source', destination: '$destination'."
Copy-Item -Path $source -Destination $destination
The section below is how the rest of the copy functions are set up in the script, so you have a better understanding of what the main section copies are.
$Source = Select-Boss
$destination = 'D:\parts'
"Calling Copy-Item with parameters source: '$source', destination: '$destination'."
Copy-Item -Path $source -Destination $destination
But for one specific part I need to have it copied to multiple locations. I need this to happen since I don't have to change the server that I logged into and go to a different one. It is all done in one location and I was hoping to make things easier and not write a whole bunch of little coding to go and copy and save in the folders.
copy-item only takes a single value for its -destination parameter, so you need a loop of some type.
Assuming you want the same file name in multiple folders:
$destFolders | Foreach-Object { Copy-Item -Path $Source -dest (Join-Path $_ $destFileName) }
should do it.
