Below is what i tried and its giving all the artifact names, i am not sure how to get the way i want it

Get-Content pom.xml -Raw | % { [regex]::matches($_ , '<artifactId>([\s\S]*?)</artifactId>')} |% {$_.Groups[1].Value}

Any help would be appreciated

CodePudding user response：

Regex is a last resort. PowerShell can parse XML for you!

Try this instead:

$x = [xml](gc pom.xml)

This^ failed for me because I assume you did not include the entire contents of the XML file in your question.

$x | FL

After here you would find your property and next "dot" into it. If build was the property then...

$x.build | fl

Rinse and repeat
