WEBVTT 00:00.420 --> 00:08.430 Important the process of really formated data from external storage such as a file on disk and converting 00:08.430 --> 00:14.850 that data back into objects those objects are usually put into the pipeline where they can be passed 00:14.970 --> 00:20.910 to other commands for additional manipulation of effectiveness on that import process depends on the 00:20.910 --> 00:22.790 format that the data has. 00:22.790 --> 00:30.030 Him say three files for example are flet data structures and do not provide a high degree of fidelity 00:30.030 --> 00:32.720 for reserve and complex data. 00:32.730 --> 00:39.810 By contrast X-amount provides a higher fidelity way of preserving data even in complex hierarchical 00:39.810 --> 00:40.880 relationships. 00:40.890 --> 00:47.580 You have already learned that the experts work in Windows Power Shell implies a two step process. 00:47.580 --> 00:55.170 Data is first converted to another form and then it is written to external storage then import are also 00:55.170 --> 00:57.300 implies a two step process. 00:57.300 --> 01:05.790 Data is first read from external storage and then it is converted from the format into objects for example 01:05.790 --> 01:10.630 get Prozess pipe experts since read processors gutsiest. 01:10.740 --> 01:18.110 This command saves a list of running processes in Sicily format in a file that is named process's Dotsie 01:18.120 --> 01:18.790 is free. 01:18.900 --> 01:24.410 Let's review the next command imports since the process is DOCSIS. 01:24.530 --> 01:26.740 Then pipe it to sort object. 01:26.790 --> 01:29.780 Thus property M does descendant. 01:29.940 --> 01:33.310 And again Pypard to select the object first. 01:33.420 --> 01:41.280 This command treats that selfie file reconstructs the original objects with some degree of fidelity. 01:41.370 --> 01:49.100 Sort those objects in the sand in order on the virtual memory property and then selects the first one 01:49.100 --> 01:49.730 object. 01:49.740 --> 01:56.070 The important implies that the command understands the form that the data is in and that the command 01:56.070 --> 01:59.730 can construct usable objects from Lead Data. 01:59.760 --> 02:07.410 Importing differs from reading a file contents and not paying attention to the for for example get content 02:07.480 --> 02:07.880 below. 02:07.890 --> 02:15.110 This is not since repipe sort of object does property VM does the same the pipes select object Desch 02:15.120 --> 02:19.350 first then this command will not produce the expected results. 02:19.350 --> 02:26.130 Instead of importance or that the get content command was used to read it use and get content resembles 02:26.130 --> 02:30.840 looking at us as we file in node note Bear where you see the raw data. 02:30.840 --> 02:38.400 Important is more like impertinences We file into Microsoft Office Excel where the file is interpreted 02:38.430 --> 02:46.890 and correctly broken out into various rows and columns in a spreadsheet because Get content does not 02:46.890 --> 02:53.790 try to interpret the file Ventres shall include several commands that you convert from verb and the 02:53.790 --> 02:59.400 name implies these commands are the opposite of those that use or convert to. 02:59.520 --> 03:02.190 Or for example get content below. 03:02.210 --> 03:10.430 This is Dodson's 3 byte convert from say a three byte sort object and three are certain objects. 03:10.690 --> 03:13.350 Sanden and select first. 03:13.440 --> 03:19.590 This command would have the result you want because content is being used to read the files the raw 03:19.590 --> 03:27.840 counter contents but then convert from C is interpreted data and construct any usable objects to put 03:27.840 --> 03:30.900 into the pipeline used together in this manner. 03:30.900 --> 03:38.040 Get content and convert from since we have the same result as imports since we in many cases do commands 03:38.050 --> 03:40.810 might achieve the same result as 1. 03:40.920 --> 03:44.000 But they might take longer to run. 03:44.010 --> 03:52.480 For example imports is free as long runs faster then get contenta and convert from just recombined obviously. 03:52.770 --> 03:56.370 Now let's practice a bit with import command. 03:56.370 --> 04:03.150 You'll see different ways to read and import data export and import some date or compare to read in 04:03.150 --> 04:04.130 the raw data. 04:04.230 --> 04:11.890 So to use the contents of sort of DOCSIS without interpreter the data we can run get content served 04:12.000 --> 04:19.850 DOCSIS we to import the contents of serve God says Vee so that the data is interpreted into objects. 04:19.920 --> 04:27.500 We could run imports seriously command source that says we now let's use the services in served notice 04:27.490 --> 04:35.070 we display a list of services that have run and services listed first stopped services listed second 04:35.250 --> 04:43.710 and services sorted in reverse alphabetical order by name within those lists and then display only service 04:43.710 --> 04:45.320 names and status. 04:45.360 --> 04:53.070 To do that we can run the full command import since we serve God since we wipe it to sort status. 04:53.160 --> 04:59.190 Common name this descendant and pipe it to select name status.
