How to return the fullname with measure-object attributes

Question

I'm a bit new to PowerShell. I have a working script returning -Line, -Character and -Word to a csv file. I can't figure out how to add the full name of the file into the csv.

get-childitem -recurse -Path C:\Temp\*.* | foreach-object { $name = $_.FullName; get-content $name | Measure-Object -Line -Character -Word} | Export-Csv -Path C:\Temp\FileAttributes.csv

I've tried using Write-Host and Select-Object, but I'm not sure about the syntax.

I've been using the following as a reference.

This is what I'm after

Answer 1

Use Select-Object with a calculated property:

Get-Childitem -recurse -Path C:\Temp\*.* | ForEach-Object { 
  $fullName = $_.FullName
  Get-Content $fullName | Measure-Object -Line -Character -Word |
    Select-Object @{ Name = 'FullName'; Expression={ $fullName } }, *
} | Export-Csv -Path C:\Temp\FileAttributes.csv

Note:

• Pass -ExcludeProperty Property to Select-Object to omit the empty Property column.

• Pass -NoTypeInformation to Export-Csv to suppress the virtually useless first line (the type annotation) in the CSV.
