powershell

How can I call a file from the same folder that I am in (in script)

I would like to call script B from script A without specifying the complete path. I've tried with 

.\scriptb.ps1

but that doesn't work. Do I really have to specify the entire path?

(sorry for this quite basic question, but google couldn't help me!)

Solution

  • it is possible using $MyInvocation as follows:

    $executingScriptDirectory = Split-Path -Path $MyInvocation.MyCommand.Definition -Parent
$scriptPath = Join-Path $executingScriptDirectory "scriptb.ps1"
Invoke-Expression ".\$scriptPath"
