Windows partial includes the ability to convert pipeline objects to other forms of data representation.
For example a collection of objects can be converted to an external page or a storm of regnant to comma
separated values or says the format or example bouchal uses two distinct verbs for conversion.
Convert to and export.
Command to that UTIs the verb convert to such as convert to does HDMI.
Except objects as input from the pipeline and producers convert to data that's output to the pipeline.
In other words the data remains in Windows parsha the data could be piped to another command that are
all with the data to a file or manipulated in some other way.
For example get service pipe convert to the cells we wipe out those file services that she has to be
a command that uses expert sigils expert says Vee performs two operations at the same time.
It first converts the data and then it writes the data to external storage that mud that might be a
file on disk for example good service like expert says Field Services DOD says.
So as you can see it took two steps to perform the same operation.
Compare it to the example before expert commands.
Basically combine the functionality of convert through with a command like out file expert commands
do not usually put any output into the pipeline.
Therefore that's an appearance on the screen after an expert command finishes running a key part of
both the operations of the form or the data is changed to something like say a sweet X or mileage Jemal
or another for the data is no longer contained in the structure of three or two objects antigens instead
represented in another forum entirely.
When you convert it to another form data is generally more difficult to manipulate converter data cannot
be easily sorted selected measured and so on.
To see a list of commands run get command this roar convert to Gaumont export the commands that you'll
use most frequently includes the form and convert to convert to a male convert to SML experts and expert
CLX somehow ugly X-amount.
If you are interested in producing more complex management reports by use an extra amount you could
read the free book which is called create an HMO.
Reports in Windows Phone for.
And it's available on Dab-Dab a drive a dirt poor shell dot org slash books.
Now let's talk about pipe in output file windows Parshall's out this file command can accept input from
the pipeline and try that file.
It can render objects into text and uses the same technique that the shell uses to render objects into
text.
For on screen display.
In other words whatever you pipe into out file will be the same as what would have otherwise appear
on the screen.
This behavior differs from converting no expert to object because you are not changing the form of the
object.
Instead the show is capturing what would have appeared on the screen.
Various parameters of out file command enable you to specify a file name to a banned content to an existing
file or to specify character and call them and so on.
Alt file is perhaps the easiest way to move data out of the shell and into external storage.
However because the text files that out file Greed's are usually intended for viewing by person reading
the data back into the shell in any way that enables the data to be manipulated sorted selected measured
and so on is frequently Deif difficult or impractical outfight does not produce any output of its own.
This means that the command does not put objects into the pipeline.
After you run the command you should expect to see no output on the screen as you begin to write more
complex commands in Windows POAs shell will have to become used to keep track of the pipeline's Coltons
as each command to the pipeline Ryons.
The command may produce different output from what was put into you.
Therefore the next command will be working with something different.
For example get service by sort object those properties stators pipe select object property name status.
Why convert to see a reply and the final part out.
File this file path service laserdiscs history.
In this example things file commands in a single command line or pipeline let's review the parts of
this command line after get service runs.
The pipeline contains objects of the type system dush sorry system that service process that service
controller.
These objects have a known set of properties and methods.
The next step after sort object runs the pipeline still contains a Loew's service controller objects
Sarto object produces output that is the same kind of object that was put into after select object runs
the pipeline no longer contains service controller objects.
Instead it contains objects of the type selected dot system that service process dot service controller.
This behavior indicates that the object derived from the regular service controller must have had some
of them members removed.
In this case the objects contain only their name and status properties.
So you could no longer serve them on their display name because that property no longer exists.
After convert to cease fire once the pipeline contains system docstring objects that contain the reformatted
data windows partial could no longer sort of select this object because they have no longer in the key
that kind of object.
And finally after all file runs the pipeline contains nothing therefore nothing will appear on the screen.
After running this complete command when you have a complex multiple command line or pipeline such as
this line you may have to debug it.
If it does not run correctly the first time the best way to debug it is to start with just one command
and see what it produces.
Learn at the second command and see what happens.
Continue to add one command at a time verifying that each one produces the output you expected before
you add the next amount.
Now let's have a practice of converting data to different forms.
Experts in the data to external storage.
First let's convert a list of processes to HMO to do that.
We can run great process pipeline convert to DMA.
Now let's create a file that is named blocks dot HDMI that contains an instrumental formatted list of
groceries to do that.
You could run get process by convert to a pipe out file Prague's dotage to a mile.
You must use these two step approach because Windows shell does not provide an expert the edge Roger
Malcolm out.
Now lets convert a list of services to assist me to do that.
We have to run get service pipe convert to cells.
Now lets create a file that is named server dirt cells that contains a specific formatted list of services
to do that we could use two approaches.
First one gets saurus pipe convert to cells repipe out file serve DOCSIS we or wrong get service pipe
experts says we serve DOCSIS we both commands will have the same result.
And the final example is to open serve God says Vee unmowed Kellton decide whether all the data was
retained to open mode or just run Notebaert serve dulces free.
And please note that some data such as dependent services is missing.
That is because the comma separated railyards just file can and show your article data or nested objects
appropriately.
