Setup and using PSU on macOS

PowerShell Universal
1

Hello,
I am looking for a complete guide that helps me running PSU on macOS:

  • How to install PSU and PSU Server correctly?
  • How to install and configure the VSC extension correctly?
  • Best practices

Right now the macOS setup documentation seems to be neglected and scattered.

Problems are (only some examples):

  • Install-PSUServer runs but the extension doesn’t find the server. Manual download and unzipping required.
  • Manual start of Universal.Server required.
  • Admin pages not available.
  • Handling of app token unclear.
  • The sidebar in the extension almost empty (e.g. dashboard list)
  • Terminal is flooded with messages when running Start-PSUServer
  • …

I am sure that most of the problems can be solved easily. But where and how to start?

Thank you!

I can’t get start-psudashboard to work at all. I see Universal.psd1and .psm1 in the cmdlet directory.

PS /Users/name/Universal.osx-x64.2.5.0/Host/Cmdlets> Start-PSUDashboard
Start-PSUDashboard: The term ‘Start-UDDashboard’ is not recognized as a name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or executable program.
Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.
