Export-IdlePlan

SYNOPSIS

Exports an IdLE LifecyclePlan as a canonical JSON artifact.

SYNTAX

Export-IdlePlan [-Plan] <Object> [[-Path] <String>] [-PassThru] [-ProgressAction <ActionPreference>]
[<CommonParameters>]

DESCRIPTION

This cmdlet is the user-facing wrapper exposed by the IdLE meta module.

It delegates to IdLE.Core's `Export-IdlePlanObject`, which implements the canonical plan export contract.

By default, the cmdlet returns a pretty-printed JSON string. If -Path is provided, the JSON is written to disk as UTF-8 (no BOM). Use -PassThru to also return the JSON string when writing a file.

EXAMPLES

EXAMPLE 1

$plan = New-IdlePlan -Request $request -Workflow $workflow -StepRegistry $registry
$plan | Export-IdlePlan

Exports the plan and returns the JSON string.

EXAMPLE 2

New-IdlePlan -Request $request -Workflow $workflow -StepRegistry $registry |
Export-IdlePlan -Path ./artifacts/plan.json

Exports the plan and writes the JSON to a file.

EXAMPLE 3

New-IdlePlan -Request $request -Workflow $workflow -StepRegistry $registry |
Export-IdlePlan -Path ./artifacts/plan.json -PassThru

Writes the file and also returns the JSON string.
