Invoke-DeployRestPS not working if the module is not present in standard folders

[Tonic8]

Hello

trying to test the module i usually create a folder with my test script and a subfolder with the module to test.

first line of the script is import-module c:\test1\modules\RestPS

when trying to execute the command

PS C:\> Invoke-DeployRestPS -LocalDir 'c:\RestPS'
Creating RestPS Directories.

Invoke-DeployRestPS: Cannot bind argument to parameter 'Path' because it is null.

The issue is on the line of the function Invoke-DeployRestPS

$Source = (Split-Path -Path (Get-Module -ListAvailable RestPS | Sort-Object -Property Version -Descending | Select-Object -First 1).path) this work only for standard modules deployment, in certain case it could usefull to have a "portable" structure for the project (one folder with all logs, all modules needed, all script, etc) we can drop.

Who doesn't like standards? So I think if I add a $sourcDir parameter this should resolve your issue. I can default it to what is there, but allow you do override it.

Sound good?

hello :) yes who care on standard?, that's sound good for me.

Just released version "7.0.14" to the PowerShell Gallery. Give that a shot and let me know if it works for you.
