case statements in powercli

[drivera01]

are they possible?

Im use to doing items like this in shell scripting.

I was wondering if there is an equivelant in powercli?

case "$1" in
'"item1')
        something here
        ;;

"item2'')
        something here
        ;;
*)
        echo "Usage: { item1 | item2 }"
        ;;
esac
exit 0

It's nearly the same, just a few differences in syntax

$var = "xyz"

switch($var){
    'item1' {
        "Something for item1"
    }
    'item2' {
        "Something for item2"
    }
    Default {
        "Usage: {item1 | item2}"
    }
}
