NOTES
Example 1: Save a package to the local computer
PS C:\>Save-Package -Name "DSCAccelerator" -DestinationPath "C:\Users\TestUser\Downloads"
This example saves the newest version of a package, DSCAccelerator, to the C:\Users\TestUser\Downloads folder.
Example 2: Save an exact version of a package
PS C:\>Save-Package -Name "DSCAccelerator" -RequiredVersion "2.1.2" -DestinationPath "C:\Users\TestUser\Downloads"
This example saves only version 2.1.2 of a package, DSCAccelerator, to the C:\Users\TestUser\Downloads folder.
Example 3: Save a package by piping results of Find-Package
PS C:\>Find-Package -Name "DSCAccelerator" -RequiredVersion "2.1.2" | Save-Package -DestinationPath
"C:\Users\TestUser\Downloads"
This command saves a package named DSCAccelerator by first locating the exact package with the Find-Package
cmdlet, then piping the results of Find-Package to the Save-Package cmdlet.
Example 4: Save a package to a local folder, then install the package
PS C:\>Save-Package "notepad2" -DestinationPath "C:\temp"
PS C:\>Install-Package "C:\temp\notepad2.4.2.25.3.nupkg"
The first command saves a package to C:\temp, a folder on the local computer. The second command installs the
saved package from the C:\temp folder, instead of installing from the web.
