给出两条绝对路径,例如

/var/data/stuff/xyz.dat
/var/data

如何创建一个以第二条路径为基础的相对路径?在上面的例子中,结果应该是:./stuff/xyz.dat


当前回答

这里已经有很多答案了,但我发现他们并不能处理所有的情况,比如基地和目标是相同的。这个函数接受一个基本目录和一个目标路径,并返回相对路径。如果不存在相对路径,则返回目标路径。文件。分隔符是不必要的。

public static String getRelativePath (String baseDir, String targetPath) {
    String[] base = baseDir.replace('\\', '/').split("\\/");
    targetPath = targetPath.replace('\\', '/');
    String[] target = targetPath.split("\\/");

    // Count common elements and their length.
    int commonCount = 0, commonLength = 0, maxCount = Math.min(target.length, base.length);
    while (commonCount < maxCount) {
        String targetElement = target[commonCount];
        if (!targetElement.equals(base[commonCount])) break;
        commonCount++;
        commonLength += targetElement.length() + 1; // Directory name length plus slash.
    }
    if (commonCount == 0) return targetPath; // No common path element.

    int targetLength = targetPath.length();
    int dirsUp = base.length - commonCount;
    StringBuffer relative = new StringBuffer(dirsUp * 3 + targetLength - commonLength + 1);
    for (int i = 0; i < dirsUp; i++)
        relative.append("../");
    if (commonLength < targetLength) relative.append(targetPath.substring(commonLength));
    return relative.toString();
}

其他回答

实际上,如果目标路径不是基路径的子路径,我的另一个答案是不成立的。

这应该有用。

public class RelativePathFinder {

    public static String getRelativePath(String targetPath, String basePath, 
       String pathSeparator) {

        // find common path
        String[] target = targetPath.split(pathSeparator);
        String[] base = basePath.split(pathSeparator);

        String common = "";
        int commonIndex = 0;
        for (int i = 0; i < target.length && i < base.length; i++) {

            if (target[i].equals(base[i])) {
                common += target[i] + pathSeparator;
                commonIndex++;
            }
        }


        String relative = "";
        // is the target a child directory of the base directory?
        // i.e., target = /a/b/c/d, base = /a/b/
        if (commonIndex == base.length) {
            relative = "." + pathSeparator + targetPath.substring(common.length());
        }
        else {
            // determine how many directories we have to backtrack
            for (int i = 1; i <= commonIndex; i++) {
                relative += ".." + pathSeparator;
            }
            relative += targetPath.substring(common.length());
        }

        return relative;
    }

    public static String getRelativePath(String targetPath, String basePath) {
        return getRelativePath(targetPath, basePath, File.pathSeparator);
    }
}

public class RelativePathFinderTest extends TestCase {

    public void testGetRelativePath() {
        assertEquals("./stuff/xyz.dat", RelativePathFinder.getRelativePath(
                "/var/data/stuff/xyz.dat", "/var/data/", "/"));
        assertEquals("../../b/c", RelativePathFinder.getRelativePath("/a/b/c",
                "/a/x/y/", "/"));
    }

}

下面是一个从基本路径解析相对路径的方法,不管它们在相同或不同的根路径中:

public static String GetRelativePath(String path, String base){

    final String SEP = "/";

    // if base is not a directory -> return empty
    if (!base.endsWith(SEP)){
        return "";
    }

    // check if path is a file -> remove last "/" at the end of the method
    boolean isfile = !path.endsWith(SEP);

    // get URIs and split them by using the separator
    String a = "";
    String b = "";
    try {
        a = new File(base).getCanonicalFile().toURI().getPath();
        b = new File(path).getCanonicalFile().toURI().getPath();
    } catch (IOException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
    String[] basePaths = a.split(SEP);
    String[] otherPaths = b.split(SEP);

    // check common part
    int n = 0;
    for(; n < basePaths.length && n < otherPaths.length; n ++)
    {
        if( basePaths[n].equals(otherPaths[n]) == false )
            break;
    }

    // compose the new path
    StringBuffer tmp = new StringBuffer("");
    for(int m = n; m < basePaths.length; m ++)
        tmp.append(".."+SEP);
    for(int m = n; m < otherPaths.length; m ++)
    {
        tmp.append(otherPaths[m]);
        tmp.append(SEP);
    }

    // get path string
    String result = tmp.toString();

    // remove last "/" if path is a file
    if (isfile && result.endsWith(SEP)){
        result = result.substring(0,result.length()-1);
    }

    return result;
}

递归产生一个较小的解决方案。如果结果不可能(例如不同的Windows磁盘)或不切实际(根目录只是普通目录),则抛出异常。

/**
 * Computes the path for a file relative to a given base, or fails if the only shared 
 * directory is the root and the absolute form is better.
 * 
 * @param base File that is the base for the result
 * @param name File to be "relativized"
 * @return the relative name
 * @throws IOException if files have no common sub-directories, i.e. at best share the
 *                     root prefix "/" or "C:\"
 */

public static String getRelativePath(File base, File name) throws IOException  {
    File parent = base.getParentFile();

    if (parent == null) {
        throw new IOException("No common directory");
    }

    String bpath = base.getCanonicalPath();
    String fpath = name.getCanonicalPath();

    if (fpath.startsWith(bpath)) {
        return fpath.substring(bpath.length() + 1);
    } else {
        return (".." + File.separator + getRelativePath(parent, name));
    }
}

在Java 7及以后的版本中,你可以简单地使用(与URI相比,它没有错误):

Path#relativize(Path)

我假设你有fromPath(一个文件夹的绝对路径),和toPath(一个文件夹/文件的绝对路径),你正在寻找一个路径,代表文件/文件夹在toPath作为一个相对路径从fromPath(你当前的工作目录是fromPath),然后像这样的工作:

public static String getRelativePath(String fromPath, String toPath) {

  // This weirdness is because a separator of '/' messes with String.split()
  String regexCharacter = File.separator;
  if (File.separatorChar == '\\') {
    regexCharacter = "\\\\";
  }

  String[] fromSplit = fromPath.split(regexCharacter);
  String[] toSplit = toPath.split(regexCharacter);

  // Find the common path
  int common = 0;
  while (fromSplit[common].equals(toSplit[common])) {
    common++;
  }

  StringBuffer result = new StringBuffer(".");

  // Work your way up the FROM path to common ground
  for (int i = common; i < fromSplit.length; i++) {
    result.append(File.separatorChar).append("..");
  }

  // Work your way down the TO path
  for (int i = common; i < toSplit.length; i++) {
    result.append(File.separatorChar).append(toSplit[i]);
  }

  return result.toString();
}
