Get Sitename through PowerShell script

Question

I would like to get SXA Site name dynamically when we run PowerShell script through the context menu. Currently I am giving static Site name in PowerShell script. Using the below code.

Show-Input "Enter Site name"

I am using multiple sites so need it dynamically.

Answer 1

There is an out of the box SXA function called Get-SiteItem that takes the item as parameter and gives the context site name. Using Get-Item function you can get the context item by using . as parameter.

Import-Function Get-SiteItem
$item = Get-Item . // Gets context item
$site =  Get-SiteItem $item // Gets context site item for the current item
Write-host $site.Name 

Answer 2

You can run this command to get all your site names in your Sitecore Instance and then use a filter to get the specific one.

$siteNames = [Sitecore.Sites.SiteManager]::GetSites() | % {$_.Name}
Write-Host $siteNames | Select-Object -Unique

Hope this helps.

Answer 3

You can use the below code to get all the sites in a list.

The list can be used in a dropdown for the user to select the site.

$SiteResolver = [System.Type]([Sitecore.XA.Foundation.Multisite.ISiteInfoResolver])
$Sites = [Sitecore.DependencyInjection.ServiceLocator]::get_ServiceProvider().GetService($SiteResolver).Sites`
| ForEach-Object { $database.GetItem($_.RootPath) }`
| Where-Object { $_ -ne $null -and $_.ID -ne $null -and $_.TemplateId -eq [Constants]::SiteTemplateId} `
| Sort-Object -Unique
