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

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

我建议你使用对话框。。。

Linux学徒:使用对话框改进Bash Shell脚本对话框命令允许在shell脚本中使用窗口框,以使其使用更具交互性。

它简单易用,还有一个名为gdialog的gnome版本,它采用了完全相同的参数,但在X上显示了GUI风格。

在这种情况下,我已经多次使用case语句,使用case语句是一种很好的方法。可以实现while循环,该循环模拟case块,利用布尔条件,以便更好地控制程序,并满足许多其他要求。在满足所有条件后,可以使用中断,将控制权传递回程序的主要部分。此外,为了满足其他条件,当然可以在控制结构中添加条件语句:case语句和可能的while循环。

使用案例陈述来满足您的请求的示例

#! /bin/sh 

# For potential users of BSD, or other systems who do not
# have a bash binary located in /bin the script will be directed to
# a bourne-shell, e.g. /bin/sh

# NOTE: It would seem best for handling user entry errors or
# exceptions, to put the decision required by the input 
# of the prompt in a case statement (case control structure), 

echo Would you like us to perform the option: "(Y|N)"

read inPut

case $inPut in
    # echoing a command encapsulated by 
    # backticks (``) executes the command
    "Y") echo `Do something crazy`
    ;;
    # depending on the scenario, execute the other option
    # or leave as default
    "N") echo `execute another option`
    ;;
esac

exit

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。

yn() {
  if [[ 'y' == `read -s -n 1 -p "[y/n]: " Y; echo $Y` ]];
  then eval $1;
  else eval $2;
  fi }
yn 'echo yes' 'echo no'
yn 'echo absent no function works too!'

检查此项

read -p "Continue? (y/n): " confirm && [[ $confirm == [yY] || $confirm == [yY][eE][sS] ]] || exit 1
