How can I pass an argument to a PowerShell script?

August 20, 2021 by James Palmer

Tested as working:
#Must be the first statement in your script (not coutning comments)
param([Int32]$step=30)

$iTunes = New-Object -ComObject iTunes.Application

if ($iTunes.playerstate -eq 1)
{
$iTunes.PlayerPosition = $iTunes.PlayerPosition + $step
}

Call it with
powershell.exe -file itunesForward.ps1 -step 15

Multiple parameters syntax (comments are optional, but allowed):
<# Script description. Some notes. #>
param (
# height of largest column without top bar
[int]$h = 4000,

# name of the output image
[string]$image = ‘out.png’
)

You can use also the $args variable (that’s like position parameters):
$step = $args[0]

$iTunes = New-Object -ComObject iTunes.Application

if ($iTunes.playerstate -eq 1)
{
$iTunes.PlayerPosition = $iTunes.PlayerPosition + $step
}

Then it can be called like:
powershell.exe -file itunersforward.ps1 15
