Problem

Current instructions for deploying the Sealights CollectorService are manual, and we have several services deployed on our QA machines. We want to automate this step.

Solution

The sample code listed in this article is not supported by Sealights as an official plugin, agent, or product and is shared as a courtesy.

Please find below a sample script allowing you to register Sealights Collector Service with your service using a single command.
This script will check the agent paths, enable/disable logs, and update the registry for a specified service.

Sample command to use:

.\SL.RegisterServiceProfiler.ps1 -agentpath C:\Sealights\SL.DotNet -servicename MySealightsTest -logdir C:\Sealights\logs -loglevel 6

Script

# job
# -agentpath .
# -servicename XYZ
# -logdir
# -loglevel
param (
    [string]$agentpath,
    [Parameter(Mandatory=$true)][string]$servicename,
    [string]$logdir,
    [ValidateSet(0,1,4,6,999)][string]$loglevel = 0
)

#Output here argv for

Write-Output ""
#Write Powershell version
Write-Output "Current Powershell Version: $($PSVersionTable.PSVersion.ToString())"

#If no agent path is provided stop.
if ( ([string]::IsNullOrWhiteSpace($agentpath)) ) {
    Write-Output "[ERROR] No agent provided."
    exit
}

#Test Agent Path and output its version 
try{
    $SLAgentPath=$(Resolve-Path -Path $agentpath -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue).Path  
} catch {

$SlAgentVersionPath = $(Join-Path -Path $agentpath -ChildPath "version.txt")

if( $(Test-Path -Path $SlAgentVersionPath -PathType Leaf) ) 
{
    Write-Output "Sealights Agent version is: $(Get-Content $SlAgentVersionPath)"
}
