Quickly install the SQL powershell toolls on your local machine

I wanted to quickly install the 2012 powershell tools on to my machine. I could’t find a simple summary, so here goes:

Visit this site:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=29065

Download the following:

Microsoft® Windows PowerShell Extensions for Microsoft® SQL Server® 2012
Microsoft® SQL Server® 2012 Shared Management Objects
Microsoft® System CLR Types for Microsoft® SQL Server® 2012

Wherever you downloaded the above files to:

PS C:\Temp> .\SQLSysClrTypes.msi /qr /norestart
PS C:\Temp> .\SharedManagementObjects.msi /qr /norestart
PS C:\Temp> .\PowerShellTools.MSI /qr /norestart

Import-Module SQLPS -DisableNameChecking 

That should do it.
