您可以这样使用：

## declare an array variable
declare -a arr=("element1" "element2" "element3")

## now loop through the above array
for i in "${arr[@]}"
do
   echo "$i"
   # or do whatever with individual element of the array
done

# You can access them using echo "${arr[0]}", "${arr[1]}" also

也适用于多行数组声明

declare -a arr=("element1" 
                "element2" "element3"
                "element4"
                )

循环遍历数组的方式取决于换行符的存在。使用分隔数组元素的换行符，数组可以称为“$array”，否则应称为“$｛array[@]}”。以下脚本将明确说明：

#!/bin/bash

mkdir temp
mkdir temp/aaa
mkdir temp/bbb
mkdir temp/ccc
array=$(ls temp)
array1=(aaa bbb ccc)
array2=$(echo -e "aaa\nbbb\nccc")

echo '$array'
echo "$array"
echo
for dirname in "$array"; do
    echo "$dirname"
done
echo
for dirname in "${array[@]}"; do
    echo "$dirname"
done
echo
echo '$array1'
echo "$array1"
echo
for dirname in "$array1"; do
    echo "$dirname"
done
echo
for dirname in "${array1[@]}"; do
    echo "$dirname"
done
echo
echo '$array2'
echo "$array2"
echo
for dirname in "$array2"; do
    echo "$dirname"
done
echo
for dirname in "${array2[@]}"; do
    echo "$dirname"
done
rmdir temp/aaa
rmdir temp/bbb
rmdir temp/ccc
rmdir temp

您可以这样使用：

## declare an array variable
declare -a arr=("element1" "element2" "element3")

## now loop through the above array
for i in "${arr[@]}"
do
   echo "$i"
   # or do whatever with individual element of the array
done

# You can access them using echo "${arr[0]}", "${arr[1]}" also

也适用于多行数组声明

declare -a arr=("element1" 
                "element2" "element3"
                "element4"
                )

如果您使用的是Korn shell，则有“set-A databaseName”，否则有“declare-A databaseName”

要在所有外壳上编写脚本，

 set -A databaseName=("db1" "db2" ....) ||
        declare -a databaseName=("db1" "db2" ....)
# now loop 
for dbname in "${arr[@]}"
do
   echo "$dbname"  # or whatever

done

它应该在所有外壳上工作。

简单方法：

arr=("sharlock"  "bomkesh"  "feluda" )  ##declare array

len=${#arr[*]}  # it returns the array length

#iterate with while loop
i=0
while [ $i -lt $len ]
do
    echo ${arr[$i]}
    i=$((i+1))
done


#iterate with for loop
for i in $arr
do
  echo $i
done

#iterate with splice
 echo ${arr[@]:0:3}

脚本或函数的隐式数组：

除了anubhava的正确答案：如果循环的基本语法是：

for var in "${arr[@]}" ;do ...$var... ;done

bash中有一个特殊情况：

当运行脚本或函数时，在命令行传递的参数将被分配给$@数组变量，您可以通过$1、$2、$3等进行访问。

可以通过以下方式填充（用于测试）

set -- arg1 arg2 arg3 ...

这个数组上的循环可以简单地写：

for item ;do
    echo "This is item: $item."
  done

请注意，中的保留工作不存在，也没有数组名称！

示例：

set -- arg1 arg2 arg3 ...
for item ;do
    echo "This is item: $item."
  done
This is item: arg1.
This is item: arg2.
This is item: arg3.
This is item: ....

注意，这与

for item in "$@";do
    echo "This is item: $item."
  done

然后进入脚本：

#!/bin/bash

for item ;do
    printf "Doing something with '%s'.\n" "$item"
  done

将其保存在脚本myscript.sh、chmod+x myscript.shh中，然后

./myscript.sh arg1 arg2 arg3 ...
Doing something with 'arg1'.
Doing something with 'arg2'.
Doing something with 'arg3'.
Doing something with '...'.

在函数中相同：

myfunc() { for item;do cat <<<"Working about '$item'."; done ; }

Then

myfunc item1 tiem2 time3
Working about 'item1'.
Working about 'tiem2'.
Working about 'time3'.
