How to return the name of the calling script from a Powershell Module?

Question

I have two Powershell files, a module and a script that calls the module.

Module: test.psm1

Function Get-Info {
    $MyInvocation.MyCommand.Name
}

Script: myTest.ps1

Import-Module C:\Users\moomin\Documents\test.psm1 -force
Get-Info

When I run ./myTest.ps1 I get

Get-Info

I want to return the name of the calling script (test.ps1). How can I do that?

Answer 1

Use PSCommandPath instead in your module:
Example test.psm1

function Get-Info{
    $MyInvocation.PSCommandPath
}

Example myTest.ps1

Import-Module C:\Users\moomin\Documents\test.psm1 -force
Get-Info

Output:

C:\Users\moomin\Documents\myTest.ps1

If you want only the name of the script that could be managed by doing

GCI $MyInvocation.PSCommandPath | Select -Expand Name

That would output:

myTest.ps1
