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

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();
}

酷! !我需要一些类似这样的代码,但用于比较Linux机器上的目录路径。我发现这在父目录为目标的情况下不起作用。

下面是该方法的目录友好版本:

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

 boolean isDir = false;
 {
   File f = new File(targetPath);
   isDir = f.isDirectory();
 }
 //  We need the -1 argument to split to make sure we get a trailing 
 //  "" token if the base ends in the path separator and is therefore
 //  a directory. We require directory paths to end in the path
 //  separator -- otherwise they are indistinguishable from files.
 String[] base = basePath.split(Pattern.quote(pathSeparator), -1);
 String[] target = targetPath.split(Pattern.quote(pathSeparator), 0);

 //  First get all the common elements. Store them as a string,
 //  and also count how many of them there are. 
 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++;
     }
     else break;
 }

 if (commonIndex == 0)
 {
     //  Whoops -- not even a single common path element. This most
     //  likely indicates differing drive letters, like C: and D:. 
     //  These paths cannot be relativized. Return the target path.
     return targetPath;
     //  This should never happen when all absolute paths
     //  begin with / as in *nix. 
 }

 String relative = "";
 if (base.length == commonIndex) {
     //  Comment this out if you prefer that a relative path not start with ./
     relative = "." + pathSeparator;
 }
 else {
     int numDirsUp = base.length - commonIndex - (isDir?0:1); /* only subtract 1 if it  is a file. */
     //  The number of directories we have to backtrack is the length of 
     //  the base path MINUS the number of common path elements, minus
     //  one because the last element in the path isn't a directory.
     for (int i = 1; i <= (numDirsUp); i++) {
         relative += ".." + pathSeparator;
     }
 }
 //if we are comparing directories then we 
 if (targetPath.length() > common.length()) {
  //it's OK, it isn't a directory
  relative += targetPath.substring(common.length());
 }

 return relative;
}

当使用java.net.URI.relativize时,你应该注意Java错误: JDK-6226081 (URI应该能够将路径与部分根相对化)

目前,URI的relativize()方法只在一个URI是另一个URI的前缀时才会相对化URI。

这本质上意味着java.net.URI.relativize将不会创建“…这是给你的。

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)

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 void testGetRelativePath() {
        assertEquals("./stuff/xyz.dat", RelativePathFinder.getRelativePath(
                "/var/data/stuff/xyz.dat", "/var/data/", "/"));

    for(int i = 0; i < min; i++){
        if(commonIdx < 0 && !lefts[i].equals(rights[i])){
            commonIdx = i - 1;
            break;
        }
