powershell - How to pass array of strings as param from function to get-processwhere-object - Stack Overflow

I'm trying to write a function so I can pass an array of strings as a parameter that is being used by get-process | where-object but It's not matching how I want. The code below kinda shows what I'm having trouble with:

[string[]]$Procs = "notepad","mspaint" 
$Procs -replace '","','|'
$Processes = Get-Process | where-object {$_.name -match $Procs} | select-object name, ID
$Processes2 = Get-Process | where-object {$_.name -match "notepad|mspaint"} | select-object name, ID
write-host "-------- Processes --------"
$Processes
write-host "-------- Processes2 --------"
$Processes2

notepad
mspaint
-------- Processes --------
-------- Processes2 --------

Name         Id
----         --
mspaint   28772
mspaint   32336
notepad    2172
notepad   21168
notepad++ 21056

How do I pass $Procs as as a variable and get output like $Processes2 gives? I tried splitting it and doing a foreach loop but that didn't work either.

$Procs = "notepad","mspaint" is an array already, there is no replacement needed, in fact -replace '","','|' is doing nothing other than enumerating the array, there are no "," in it.

If you want to use -match because you're looking for a partial match then you should be joining the elements of the array with |:

[string[]] $Procs = 'notepad', 'mspaint'
$pattern = $Procs -join '|'
$Processes = Get-Process | Where-Object Name -Match $pattern | Select-Object name, ID

In case you're looking for an exact match, then -match could be replaced by -in and no joining would be needed:

[string[]] $Procs = 'notepad', 'mspaint'
$Processes = Get-Process | Where-Object Name -In $Procs | Select-Object name, ID

Select-string can match an array of patterns.

$procs = 'notepad','mspaint'
get-process | where-object { $_.name | select-string $procs }

This also works (although it would also match 'System.Diagnostics.Process'):

get-process | where { $_ | select-string $procs }

Handles  NPM(K)    PM(K)      WS(K)     CPU(s)     Id  SI ProcessName

    249      14     3172      15288       0.11  16412   1 notepad

Or this, but the process objects get turned into strings:

get-process | select-string $procs

System.Diagnostics.Process (mspaint)
System.Diagnostics.Process (notepad)

get-process itself can have arrays and wildcards:

get-process note*,msp*
