我想暂停shell脚本中的输入,并提示用户进行选择。标准的是、否或取消类型问题。如何在典型的bash提示符中完成此操作?


当前回答

在shell提示符下获取用户输入的最简单和最广泛的方法是read命令。说明其用途的最佳方法是简单的演示:

while true; do
    read -p "Do you wish to install this program? " yn
    case $yn in
        [Yy]* ) make install; break;;
        [Nn]* ) exit;;
        * ) echo "Please answer yes or no.";;
    esac
done

Steven Huwig指出的另一种方法是Bash的select命令。下面是使用select的相同示例:

echo "Do you wish to install this program?"
select yn in "Yes" "No"; do
    case $yn in
        Yes ) make install; break;;
        No ) exit;;
    esac
done

使用select,您不需要清理输入–它会显示可用的选项,并键入与您的选择相对应的数字。它也会自动循环,所以如果它们提供了无效的输入,就不需要使用while true循环来重试。

此外,Léa Gris在她的回答中展示了一种使请求语言不可知的方法。调整我的第一个示例以更好地服务于多种语言可能如下所示:

set -- $(locale LC_MESSAGES)
yesexpr="$1"; noexpr="$2"; yesword="$3"; noword="$4"

while true; do
    read -p "Install (${yesword} / ${noword})? " yn
    if [[ "$yn" =~ $yesexpr ]]; then make install; exit; fi
    if [[ "$yn" =~ $noexpr ]]; then exit; fi
    echo "Answer ${yesword} / ${noword}."
done

显然,其他通信字符串在这里仍然没有翻译(Install,Answer),这需要在更完整的翻译中解决,但在许多情况下,即使是部分翻译也会很有用。

是/否/取消

作用

#!/usr/bin/env bash
@confirm() {
  local message="$*"
  local result=''

  echo -n "> $message (Yes/No/Cancel) " >&2

  while [ -z "$result" ] ; do
    read -s -n 1 choice
    case "$choice" in
      y|Y ) result='Y' ;;
      n|N ) result='N' ;;
      c|C ) result='C' ;;
    esac
  done

  echo $result
}

用法

case $(@confirm 'Confirm?') in
  Y ) echo "Yes" ;;
  N ) echo "No" ;;
  C ) echo "Cancel" ;;
esac

使用干净的用户输入进行确认

作用

#!/usr/bin/env bash
@confirm() {
  local message="$*"
  local result=3

  echo -n "> $message (y/n) " >&2

  while [[ $result -gt 1 ]] ; do
    read -s -n 1 choice
    case "$choice" in
      y|Y ) result=0 ;;
      n|N ) result=1 ;;
    esac
  done

  return $result
}

用法

if @confirm 'Confirm?' ; then
  echo "Yes"
else
  echo "No"
fi

仅单个按键

这里有一个更长但可重复使用的模块化方法:

返回0=yes和1=no无需按enter键-仅需一个字符可以按enter键接受默认选择可以禁用默认选项以强制选择适用于zsh和bash。

按enter键时默认为“否”

请注意,N是大写的。此处按enter键,接受默认值:

$ confirm "Show dangerous command" && echo "rm *"
Show dangerous command [y/N]?

还要注意,[y/N]?已自动追加。默认的“no”被接受,因此不会有任何回音。

重新提示,直到给出有效响应:

$ confirm "Show dangerous command" && echo "rm *"
Show dangerous command [y/N]? X
Show dangerous command [y/N]? y
rm *

按回车键时默认为“是”

请注意,Y是大写的:

$ confirm_yes "Show dangerous command" && echo "rm *"
Show dangerous command [Y/n]?
rm *

上面,我刚刚按了回车键,所以命令运行了。

输入时无默认值-需要y或n

$ get_yes_keypress "Here you cannot press enter. Do you like this [y/n]? "
Here you cannot press enter. Do you like this [y/n]? k
Here you cannot press enter. Do you like this [y/n]?
Here you cannot press enter. Do you like this [y/n]? n
$ echo $?
1

这里,返回了1或false。请注意,使用此较低级别的函数,您需要提供自己的[y/n]?促使

Code

# Read a single char from /dev/tty, prompting with "$*"
# Note: pressing enter will return a null string. Perhaps a version terminated with X and then remove it in caller?
# See https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/367880/143394 for dealing with multi-byte, etc.
function get_keypress {
  local REPLY IFS=
  >/dev/tty printf '%s' "$*"
  [[ $ZSH_VERSION ]] && read -rk1  # Use -u0 to read from STDIN
  # See https://unix.stackexchange.com/q/383197/143394 regarding '\n' -> ''
  [[ $BASH_VERSION ]] && </dev/tty read -rn1
  printf '%s' "$REPLY"
}

# Get a y/n from the user, return yes=0, no=1 enter=$2
# Prompt using $1.
# If set, return $2 on pressing enter, useful for cancel or defualting
function get_yes_keypress {
  local prompt="${1:-Are you sure [y/n]? }"
  local enter_return=$2
  local REPLY
  # [[ ! $prompt ]] && prompt="[y/n]? "
  while REPLY=$(get_keypress "$prompt"); do
    [[ $REPLY ]] && printf '\n' # $REPLY blank if user presses enter
    case "$REPLY" in
      Y|y)  return 0;;
      N|n)  return 1;;
      '')   [[ $enter_return ]] && return "$enter_return"
    esac
  done
}

# Credit: http://unix.stackexchange.com/a/14444/143394
# Prompt to confirm, defaulting to NO on <enter>
# Usage: confirm "Dangerous. Are you sure?" && rm *
function confirm {
  local prompt="${*:-Are you sure} [y/N]? "
  get_yes_keypress "$prompt" 1
}    

# Prompt to confirm, defaulting to YES on <enter>
function confirm_yes {
  local prompt="${*:-Are you sure} [Y/n]? "
  get_yes_keypress "$prompt" 0
}

可以在POSIX shell中处理区域设置感知的“是/否选项”;通过使用LC_MESSAGES语言环境类别的条目,witch提供了与输入匹配的现成RegEx模式,以及本地化Yes No的字符串。

#!/usr/bin/env sh

# Getting LC_MESSAGES values into variables
# shellcheck disable=SC2046 # Intended IFS splitting
IFS='
' set -- $(locale LC_MESSAGES)

yesexpr="$1"
noexpr="$2"
yesstr="$3"
nostr="$4"
messages_codeset="$5" # unused here, but kept as documentation

# Display Yes / No ? prompt into locale
echo "$yesstr / $nostr ?"

# Read answer
read -r yn

# Test answer
case "$yn" in
# match only work with the character class from the expression
  ${yesexpr##^}) echo "answer $yesstr" ;;
  ${noexpr##^}) echo "answer $nostr" ;;
esac

编辑:正如@Urhixidur在评论中提到的:

不幸的是,POSIX只指定了前两个(yeexpr和noexpr)。在Ubuntu 16上,yestr和nostr为空。

参见:https://www.ee.ryerson.ca/~courses/ele709/susv4/xrat/V_4_xbd_chap07.html#tag_21_07_03_06

LC_消息yestr和nostr语言环境关键字以及yesstr和nostr语言信息项以前用于匹配用户的肯定和否定响应。在POSIX.1-2008中,yeexpr、noexpr、yesexpr和noexpr扩展正则表达式已取代它们。应用程序应该使用通用的基于语言环境的消息传递工具来发出包含所需响应示例的提示消息。

或者使用Bash方式的区域设置:

#!/usr/bin/env bash

IFS=$'\n' read -r -d '' yesexpr noexpr _ < <(locale LC_MESSAGES)

printf -v yes_or_no_regex "(%s)|(%s)" "$yesexpr" "$noexpr"

printf -v prompt $"Please answer Yes (%s) or No (%s): " "$yesexpr" "$noexpr"

declare -- answer=;

until [[ "$answer" =~ $yes_or_no_regex ]]; do
  read -rp "$prompt" answer
done

if [[ -n "${BASH_REMATCH[1]}" ]]; then
  echo $"You answered: Yes"
else
  echo $"No, was your answer."
fi

使用语言环境提供的regexp来匹配答案。

要翻译剩余的消息,请使用bash--dump po string scriptname输出po字符串以进行本地化:

#: scriptname:8
msgid "Please answer Yes (%s) or No (%s): "
msgstr ""
#: scriptname:17
msgid "You answered: Yes"
msgstr ""
#: scriptname:19
msgid "No, was your answer."
msgstr ""

一个通用问题至少有五个答案。

如果你想

简单的“在线”问题/答案(通用解决方案)漂亮的格式化界面,如ncurses或更多使用libgtk或libqt的图形界面。。。使用强大的读取线历史记录功能

1.POSIX通用解决方案

您可以使用read命令,后跟if。。。然后其他:

printf 'Is this a good question (y/n)? '
read answer

#如果echo“$answer”| grep-iq“^y”;然后

if [ "$answer" != "${answer#[Yy]}" ] ;then # this grammar (the #[] operator) means that the variable $answer where any Y or y in 1st position will be dropped if they exist.
    echo Yes
else
    echo No
fi

(感谢Adam Katz的评论:将上面的测试替换为更便携且避免使用分叉的测试:)

POSIX,但一键功能

但如果你不想让用户点击Return,你可以这样写:

(编辑:正如@JonathanLeffler正确地建议的那样,保存stty的配置可能比简单地强迫他们保持理智要好。)

printf 'Is this a good question (y/n)? '
old_stty_cfg=$(stty -g)
stty raw -echo ; answer=$(head -c 1) ; stty $old_stty_cfg # Careful playing with stty
if [ "$answer" != "${answer#[Yy]}" ];then
    echo Yes
else
    echo No
fi

注意:这是在sh、bash、ksh、dash和busybox下测试的!

相同,但明确等待y或n:

#/bin/sh
printf 'Is this a good question (y/n)? '
old_stty_cfg=$(stty -g)
stty raw -echo
answer=$( while ! head -c 1 | grep -i '[ny]' ;do true ;done )
stty $old_stty_cfg
if [ "$answer" != "${answer#[Yy]}" ];then
    echo Yes
else
    echo No
fi

使用专用工具

有许多工具是使用libncurses、libgtk、libqt或其他图形库构建的。例如,使用whibtail:

if whiptail --yesno "Is this a good question" 20 60 ;then
    echo Yes
else
    echo No
fi

根据您的系统,您可能需要用另一个类似的工具替换whibtail:

dialog --yesno "Is this a good question" 20 60 && echo Yes

gdialog --yesno "Is this a good question" 20 60 && echo Yes

kdialog --yesno "Is this a good question" 20 60 && echo Yes

其中20是以行数表示的对话框的高度,60是对话框的宽度。这些工具都具有几乎相同的语法。

DIALOG=whiptail
if [ -x /usr/bin/gdialog ] ;then DIALOG=gdialog ; fi
if [ -x /usr/bin/xdialog ] ;then DIALOG=xdialog ; fi
...
$DIALOG --yesno ...

2.具体的解决方案

基本在线方法

read -p "Is this a good question (y/n)? " answer
case ${answer:0:1} in
    y|Y )
        echo Yes
    ;;
    * )
        echo No
    ;;
esac

我更喜欢使用case,所以如果需要,我甚至可以测试yes | ja | si | oui。。。

符合单键功能

在bash下,我们可以为read命令指定预期输入的长度:

read -n 1 -p "Is this a good question (y/n)? " answer

在bash下,read命令接受超时参数,这可能很有用。

read -t 3 -n 1 -p "Is this a good question (Y/n)? " answer
[ -z "$answer" ] && answer="Yes"  # if 'yes' have to be default choice

带倒计时的超时:

i=6 ;while ((i-->1)) &&
! read -sn 1 -t 1 -p $'\rIs this a good question (Y/n)? '$i$'..\e[3D' answer;do
  :;done ;[[ $answer == [nN] ]] && answer=No || answer=Yes ;echo "$answer "

3.专用工具的一些技巧

除了简单的“是-否”目的之外,更复杂的对话框:

dialog --menu "Is this a good question" 20 60 12 y Yes n No m Maybe

进度条:

dialog --gauge "Filling the tank" 20 60 0 < <(
    for i in {1..100};do
        printf "XXX\n%d\n%(%a %b %T)T progress: %d\nXXX\n" $i -1 $i
        sleep .033
    done
) 

小演示:

#!/bin/sh
while true ;do
    [ -x "$(which ${DIALOG%% *})" ] || DIALOG=dialog
    DIALOG=$($DIALOG --menu "Which tool for next run?" 20 60 12 2>&1 \
            whiptail       "dialog boxes from shell scripts" >/dev/tty \
            dialog         "dialog boxes from shell with ncurses" \
            gdialog        "dialog boxes from shell with Gtk" \
            kdialog        "dialog boxes from shell with Kde" ) || break
    clear;echo "Choosed: $DIALOG."
    for i in `seq 1 100`;do
        date +"`printf "XXX\n%d\n%%a %%b %%T progress: %d\nXXX\n" $i $i`"
        sleep .0125
      done | $DIALOG --gauge "Filling the tank" 20 60 0
    $DIALOG --infobox "This is a simple info box\n\nNo action required" 20 60
    sleep 3
    if $DIALOG --yesno  "Do you like this demo?" 20 60 ;then
        AnsYesNo=Yes; else AnsYesNo=No; fi
    AnsInput=$($DIALOG --inputbox "A text:" 20 60 "Text here..." 2>&1 >/dev/tty)
    AnsPass=$($DIALOG --passwordbox "A secret:" 20 60 "First..." 2>&1 >/dev/tty)
    $DIALOG --textbox /etc/motd 20 60
    AnsCkLst=$($DIALOG --checklist "Check some..." 20 60 12 \
        Correct "This demo is useful"        off \
        Fun        "This demo is nice"        off \
        Strong        "This demo is complex"        on 2>&1 >/dev/tty)
    AnsRadio=$($DIALOG --radiolist "I will:" 20 60 12 \
        " -1" "Downgrade this answer"        off \
        "  0" "Not do anything"                on \
        " +1" "Upgrade this anser"        off 2>&1 >/dev/tty)
    out="Your answers:\nLike: $AnsYesNo\nInput: $AnsInput\nSecret: $AnsPass"
    $DIALOG --msgbox "$out\nAttribs: $AnsCkLst\nNote: $AnsRadio" 20 60
  done

5.使用readline的历史记录

例子:

#!/bin/bash

set -i
HISTFILE=~/.myscript.history
history -c
history -r

myread() {
    read -e -p '> ' $1
    history -s ${!1}
}
trap 'history -a;exit' 0 1 2 3 6

while myread line;do
    case ${line%% *} in
        exit )  break ;;
        *    )  echo "Doing something with '$line'" ;;
      esac
  done

这将在$HOME目录中创建一个文件.myscript.history,您可以使用readline的历史记录命令,如Up、Down、Ctrl+r等。

您可以编写一个函数来测试:

confirm() {
  local ans IFS=;
  while read -rp "$1" -n1 ans;
  do printf '\n';
    case $ans in [Yy]) return 0;;
      [Nn]) return 1;;
    esac;
  done;
}; ## Usage: if confirm "Are you sure? "; then ...

if confirm "Does everything look ok...reboot now? [Y/n]"; then
  echo "rebooting..."
  sleep 5
  reboot
fi
