Test-Path -exclude equivalent for remote path.

2014-11-01 03:46

I'm wondering if there is a powershell:

test-path c:\* -exclude test.txt

equivalent for remote folders?

I know I can find the existence of one file using:

$remotePath = "/home/user/test.txt"
 
if ($session.FileExists($remotePath))
{
    Write-Host ("File {0} exists" -f $remotePath)
}

but I want to find out if 1 specific file exists only - in a specific folder. (basically: if there is more then the specified file, return true; if it's just the one file, return false)

Thanks.

$files = $session.ListDirectory("/home/user").Files | Where-Object { (-not $_.IsDirectory) -and ($_.Name -ne "test.txt") }
if ($files)
{
    Write-Host "Files " $files " found"
}
