Powershell script to check subfolders exist or not - powershell

Question

I'm trying to write a script in PowerShell. There will be the main folder like eg: movies. Inside I will have a subfolder of which language of movie it is and another subfolder inside it for the movie name. I will be giving only the main folder path ie: F:\Movies, And I will be taking the language of the movie folder and movie name folder as parameters I want to verify if the folder is available inside the main folder or not. I wrote the below script but it's not working. Could you please help me to figure it out?
Function Folder_Check {
[CmdletBinding(SupportsShouldProcess)]
param (
[Parameter(Mandatory=$true)]$Languageofmovie,
[Parameter(Mandatory=$true)]$nameofmovie)
$Foldertocheck = 'F:\Movies'
if ($result = Get-childitem -path $Foldertocheck -Recurse -Directory) {
Write-Host "Folder found in $($result)"
}
else {
Write-Host "No it is not available"
}
}

Answer 1

You can fix this by leveraging the parameters passed to the function.
Since you know the folder structure you can create a variable that combines the root folder, the language and the movie name:
Function Folder_Check {
[CmdletBinding(SupportsShouldProcess)]
param (
[Parameter(Mandatory=$true)]$Languageofmovie,
[Parameter(Mandatory=$true)]$nameofmovie)
$Foldertocheck = '~\Documents\Movies'
$MovieFolder = "$Foldertocheck\$Languageofmovie\$nameofmovie"
if (Test-Path $MovieFolder -PathType Container) {
Write-Host "$MovieFolder found"
}
else {
Write-Host "$MovieFolder is not available"
}
}
Using -PathType Container to make sure the movie name is a folder and not a file.
Then you can call the function - something like:
Folder_Check English Godfather
Folder_Check English Armageddon
Folder_Check Russian TheIdiot

Did I understand correctly?
Function Folder_Check {
[CmdletBinding(SupportsShouldProcess)]
param (
[Parameter(Mandatory=$true)]$Languageofmovie,
[Parameter(Mandatory=$true)]$nameofmovie)
$Foldertocheck = $Foldertocheck = 'F:\Movies' + '$($Languageofthemovie)'
if ((Get-childitem -path $Foldertocheck -Directory).name -match '$($nameofmovie)') {
Write-Host "Folder found in $($Foldertocheck)"
}
else {
Write-Host "No it is not available"
}
}
