Split file every xxx lines with Powershell

I recently ran in to an issue whilst using CommVault to restore some archive files from it's HSM.

You have to run the gxhsmutility to scan the files to check if any stub files remain, if there is it outputs what is called a map file, you then run the restore again pointing to said map file. The problem with this was that if the map file was over 100,000 lines the recovery would just crash, so I wrote this to split the map file out in to multiple map files I could then use to recover the data.

###  Config
$FilesToSplitDir = "Files_to_split\"
$SplitFilesDir = "Split_files\"
$SplitFileLines = 100000
$padding = "       "

cls

###  Check if source folder is present
if (!(Test-Path -Path $FilesToSplitDir)) {
    Write-Host "ERROR - $FilesToSplitDir folder not present" -ForegroundColor Red
    break
}

###  Check if destination folder is present
if (!(Test-Path -Path $SplitFilesDir)) {
    Write-Host "ERROR - $SplitFilesDir folder not present" -ForegroundColor Red
    break
}

###  Check source folder is empty
if ( (Get-ChildItem $FilesToSplitDir | Measure-Object).Count -eq 0) {
    Write-host "No files found to split" -ForegroundColor Red
    break
}

###  Check If destination folder has files present if so stop
if ( (Get-ChildItem $SplitFilesDir | Measure-Object).Count -ne 0) {
    Write-Host "File detected in destination folder." -ForegroundColor Red
    break
}
else {
       
    ###  Get list of files to split
    $FilesToSplits = Get-ChildItem -Path $FilesToSplitDir

    ###  Loop through files in dir and split them
    foreach ($filesToSplit in $FilesToSplits) {
        Write-Host "Splitting -"$FilesToSplit -ForegroundColor Green
        $i = 0
        Get-Content $FilesToSplitDir$FilesToSplit -ReadCount $SplitFileLines | % { $i++; Write-Host $padding$SplitFilesDir$i"_"$FilesToSplit; $_ | Out-File $SplitFilesDir$i"_"$FilesToSplit -Encoding utf8}
    }
}

Has this helped? Consider buying me a coffee?
