Command proposal

A command that return package information from an installed package using Get-Package or Get-Item to get file executable information for a not yet installed package.

Proposed parameters

Two parameters sets, Package and FilePath

Parameter Set	Parameter	Mandatory	Data type	Description	Default value	Allowed values
PackageSet	Package	Yes	String	Specifies if either the Reporting Servives or Power BI Report Server package should be retrieved	None	SSRS, PBIRS
FilePathSet	FilePath	Yes	String	Specifies the executable	None	None

Special considerations or limitations

Might use this example code to get file executable information:

<#
    .SYNOPSIS
        Gets the product version of a executable.

    .PARAMETER Path
        The path to the executable to return product version for.

    .OUTPUTS
        Returns the product version as [System.Version] type.
#>
function Get-FileProductVersion
{
    [CmdletBinding()]
    [OutputType([System.Version])]
    param
    (
        [Parameter(Mandatory = $true)]
        [System.String]
        $Path
    )

    return [System.Version] (Get-Item -Path $Path).VersionInfo.ProductVersion
}
