Question

I have this code:

# Generate bash script
$bashScript = "#!/bin/bash`n";
$bashScript += [string]::Join("`n", $cmds)

[System.IO.File]::WriteAllLines($location.ToString() + ".\build.sh", $bashScript);

The problem is that I always get CRLF characters at the end of the file!

#!/bin/bash [LF]
tsc ... [LF]
java ... [LF]
java ... [CR][LF]

Is there anything I can do except replacing CRLF at the end?

I don’t speak Powershell, but it seems to me that you’ve told it to write one big line ($bash_script) with a newline (CRLF) at the end. Call WriteAllText instead. Be sure to have a LF at the end of the file.

$bashScript = "#!/bin/bash`n" + [string]::Join("`n", $cmds) + "`n"
[System.IO.File]::WriteAllText($location.ToString() + ".\build.sh", $bashScript);
