Get blob storage content in powershell

Question

I'm using Get-AzureStorageBlobContent command to get the blob which holds version of my app:

$latestDeployment = (Get-AzureStorageBlobContent -Blob app.version -Container container -Context $blobContext)

This command saves it as a file to the disk, while I would like to load it to memory and just read the content without saving anything. Is it possible using powershell?

Answer 1

This should work

$latestDeploymentBlob = Get-AzureStorageBlob -Blob app.version -Container $container -Context $blobContext 
$latestDeployment = $latestDeploymentBlob.ICloudBlob.DownloadText()
