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

一个通用问题至少有五个答案。

取决于

posix兼容:可以在具有通用shell环境的较差系统上工作特定于bash:使用所谓的bashms

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。

其他回答

使用read命令:

echo Would you like to install? "(Y or N)"

read x

# now check if $x is "y"
if [ "$x" = "y" ]; then
    # do something here!
fi

然后你需要的所有其他东西

您需要:

Bash内置命令(即便携式)检查TTY默认答案超时彩色问题

一小条

do_xxxx=y                      # In batch mode => Default is Yes
[[ -t 0 ]] &&                  # If TTY => Prompt the question
read -n 1 -p $'\e[1;32m
Do xxxx? (Y/n)\e[0m ' do_xxxx  # Store the answer in $do_xxxx
if [[ $do_xxxx =~ ^(y|Y|)$ ]]  # Do if 'y' or 'Y' or empty
then
    xxxx
fi

解释

[[-t 0]]&&read…=>如果TTY,调用命令读取read-n 1=>等待一个字符$'\e[1;32m…\e[0m'=>绿色打印(绿色很好,因为在白色/黑色背景上都可以阅读)[[$do_xxxx=~^(y|y|)$]]=>bash正则表达式

超时=>默认答案为否

do_xxxx=y
[[ -t 0 ]] && {                   # Timeout 5 seconds (read -t 5)
read -t 5 -n 1 -p $'\e[1;32m
Do xxxx? (Y/n)\e[0m ' do_xxxx ||  # read 'fails' on timeout
do_xxxx=n ; }                     # Timeout => answer No
if [[ $do_xxxx =~ ^(y|Y|)$ ]]
then
    xxxx
fi

这个问题有很多很好的答案,但从我看来,没有一个是我的理想,那就是:

简单一点,只需要几行外壳使用单个y/n键(无需按enter键)如果只按回车键,则默认为yes也可以使用大写的Y/N

这是我的版本,它具有这些财产:

read -n1 -p "Continue? (Y/n) " confirm

if ! echo $confirm | grep '^[Yy]\?$'; then
  exit 1
fi

如果要在两个分支上运行代码,可以修改该条件,使其仅在“yes”上运行(只需删除if语句中的!)或添加else。

echo "Please enter some input: "
read input_variable
echo "You entered: $input_variable"

多选版本:

ask () {                        # $1=question $2=options
    # set REPLY
    # options: x=..|y=..
    while $(true); do
        printf '%s [%s] ' "$1" "$2"
        stty cbreak
        REPLY=$(dd if=/dev/tty bs=1 count=1 2> /dev/null)
        stty -cbreak
        test "$REPLY" != "$(printf '\n')" && printf '\n'
        (
            IFS='|'
            for o in $2; do
                if [ "$REPLY" = "${o%%=*}" ]; then
                    printf '\n'
                    break
                fi
            done
        ) | grep ^ > /dev/null && return
    done
}

例子:

$ ask 'continue?' 'y=yes|n=no|m=maybe'
continue? [y=yes|n=no|m=maybe] g
continue? [y=yes|n=no|m=maybe] k
continue? [y=yes|n=no|m=maybe] y
$

它会将REPLY设置为y(在脚本中)。
