Create a Secure RESTful API Gateway for PowerShell Scripts
summary
Module restPS is an open source PowerShell wrapper around the .NET HTTP listener that exposes script files as JSON-defined routes, runs on PowerShell 5.1/6/7 and in containers, and is single-threaded. It supports HTTPS with server and client certs, CA validation, CRL checks and optional token/password checks, and includes helper scripts. It is used to manage about 80 vCenters via per-host endpoints, returns script output over HTTP(S), and the demo implementations mostly function with some live-demo hiccups.
