How can I get process command line from PowerShell Core on Ubuntu? - powershell

Question

I'm on a Ubuntu 18.04 server. I know the full command line information can be grabbed by ps auxww. For example, by running ps auxww, I know the command /usr/local/bin/my-program -parameter :8888 is running. How can I get the same info from PowerShell? I searched around and all the info is about how to get the command line info on Windows.

On Ubuntu 18.04 PowerShell,
did you try ps -a -F. It should give the details you are looking for.
if need specific details about the running/all processes try with more options with
ps --help all or ps --help output commands
PS> ps --help output
Usage:
ps [options]
Basic options:
-A, -e all processes
-a all with tty, except session leaders
a all with tty, including other users
-d all except session leaders
-N, --deselect negate selection
r only running processes
T all processes on this terminal
x processes without controlling ttys
Output formats:
-F extra full
-f full-format, including command lines
f, --forest ascii art process tree
-H show process hierarchy
-j jobs format
j BSD job control format
-l long format
l BSD long format
-M, Z add security data (for SELinux)
-O <format> preloaded with default columns
O <format> as -O, with BSD personality
-o, o, --format <format>
user-defined format
s signal format
u user-oriented format
v virtual memory format
X register format
-y do not show flags, show rss vs. addr (used with -l)
--context display security context (for SELinux)
--headers repeat header lines, one per page
--no-headers do not print header at all
--cols, --columns, --width <num>
set screen width
--rows, --lines <num>
set screen height
--help <simple|list|output|threads|misc|all>
display help and exit
