function Get-DSCParamType
{
    <#
.SYNOPSIS
Retrieves the data type of a specific parameter from the associated DSC
resource.

.DESCRIPTION
This function scans the specified module (or in this case DSC resource),
checks for the specified parameter inside the .schema.mof file associated
with that module and properly assesses and returns the Data Type assigned
to the parameter.

.PARAMETER ModulePath
Full file path to the .psm1 module we are looking for the property inside of.
In most cases this will be the full path to the .psm1 file of the DSC resource.

.PARAMETER ParamName
Name of the parameter in the module we want to determine the Data Type for.

.SYNOPSIS
Generate the DSC string representing the resource's instance.

.DESCRIPTION
This function is really the core of ReverseDSC. It takes in an array of
parameters and returns the DSC string that represents the given instance
of the specified resource.

.PARAMETER ModulePath
Full file path to the .psm1 module we are looking to get an instance of.
In most cases this will be the full path to the .psm1 file of the DSC resource.

.PARAMETER Params
Hashtable that contains the list of Key properties and their values.

function Convert-DSCStringParamToVariable
{

.SYNOPSIS
Removes quotes around a parameter in the resulting DSC config,

.DESCRIPTION
This function will scan the content of the current DSC block for the
resource, find the specified parameter and remove quotes around its
value so that it becomes a variable instead of a string value.

.PARAMETER DSCBlock
The string representation of the current DSC resource instance we
are extracting along with all of its parameters and values.

.PARAMETER ParameterName
The name of the parameter we wish to convert the value as a variable
instead of a string value for.

.PARAMETER IsCIMArray
Represents whether or not the parameter to convert to a variable is an
array of CIM instances or not. We need to differentiate by explicitely
passing in this parameter because to the function a CIMArray is nothing
but a System.Object[] and will threat it as it. CIMArray differ in that
we should not have commas in between items it contains.

.PARAMETER IsCIMObject
Represents whether or not the parameter to convert to a variable is a
CIM instance or not. We need to differentiate by explicitely passing
in this parameter because to the function a CIMArray is nothing
but a String object and will threat it as it. However it has escaped
double quotes, which need to be handled properly.

.SYNOPSIS
Adds a property to the resulting ConfigurationData file from the
extract.

.DESCRIPTION
This function helps build the hashtable that will eventually result
in the ConfigurationData .psd1 file generated by the extraction of
the configuration. It allows you to speficy what section to add it
to inside the hashtable, and allows you to speficy a description for
each one. These description will eventually become comments that
will appear on top of the property in the ConfigurationData file.

.PARAMETER Node
Specifies the node entry under which we want to add this parameter
under. You can also specify NonNodeData names to have the property
added under custom non-node specific section.

.PARAMETER Key
The name of the parameter to add.

.PARAMETER Value
The value of the parameter to add.

.PARAMETER Description
Description of the parameter to add. This will ultimately appear in
the generated ConfigurationData .psd1 file as a comment appearing on
top of the parameter.

.SYNOPSIS
Adds the provided username to the list of required users for the
destination environment.

.DESCRIPTION
ReverseDSC allows you to keep track of all user credentials encountered
during various stages of the extraction process. By keeping a central list
of all users account required by the source environment we can easily
generate a script that will automatically create new user place holders
in a destination environment's Active Directory. This function checks
to see if the specified user was already encountered, and if not adds it
to the central list of all required users.

.PARAMETER UserName
Name of the user to add to the central list of required users.
