PSScriptBuilder

How are circular dependencies handled?

PSScriptBuilder detects circular dependencies during the analysis phase — before any output is written. It throws a clear error that identifies the cycle so you can resolve it in your source code. The build fails fast rather than producing a broken script silently.

Do I need to register every source file manually?

No. You point each collector at a directory and it picks up all matching files automatically. You can optionally filter by file pattern or recursion depth, but there is no need to list individual files. New files added to the folder are included on the next build automatically.

Can I use PSScriptBuilder in a CI/CD pipeline?

Absolutely. PSScriptBuilder produces deterministic output — the same inputs always produce the same script. There are no interactive prompts and all configuration is driven by code.

Is PSScriptBuilder battle-tested?

Yes. PSScriptBuilder is written entirely in PowerShell and builds itself. It manages 90+ source files with complex class dependencies and resolves the correct build order automatically — with the same cmdlets and mechanisms you can use in your own projects. PSScriptBuilder PSScriptBuilder analyzes your source files, resolves dependencies, and produces a single, deployable script. Many files. One script. Done.
