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

ant有一个带有getRelativePath方法的FileUtils类。我自己还没有尝试过,但是值得一试。

http://javadoc.haefelinger.it/org.apache.ant/1.7.1/org/apache/tools/ant/util/FileUtils.html getRelativePath (java.io.File java.io.File)

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;
}

这有点迂回,但为什么不使用URI呢?它有一个相对化方法可以帮你做所有必要的检查。

String path = "/var/data/stuff/xyz.dat";
String base = "/var/data";
String relative = new File(base).toURI().relativize(new File(path).toURI()).getPath();
// relative == "stuff/xyz.dat"

请注意文件路径是java.nio.file。正如@Jirka Meluzin在另一个答案中指出的那样,自Java 1.7以来,路径#相对化。

如果路径在JRE 1.5运行时或maven插件中不可用

package org.afc.util;

import java.io.File;
import java.util.LinkedList;
import java.util.List;

public class FileUtil {

    public static String getRelativePath(String basePath, String filePath)  {
        return getRelativePath(new File(basePath), new File(filePath));
    }

    public static String getRelativePath(File base, File file)  {

        List<String> bases = new LinkedList<String>();
        bases.add(0, base.getName());
        for (File parent = base.getParentFile(); parent != null; parent = parent.getParentFile()) {
            bases.add(0, parent.getName());
        }

        List<String> files = new LinkedList<String>();
        files.add(0, file.getName());
        for (File parent = file.getParentFile(); parent != null; parent = parent.getParentFile()) {
            files.add(0, parent.getName());
        }

        int overlapIndex = 0;
        while (overlapIndex < bases.size() && overlapIndex < files.size() && bases.get(overlapIndex).equals(files.get(overlapIndex))) {
            overlapIndex++;
        }

        StringBuilder relativePath = new StringBuilder();
        for (int i = overlapIndex; i < bases.size(); i++) {
            relativePath.append("..").append(File.separatorChar);
        }

        for (int i = overlapIndex; i < files.size(); i++) {
            relativePath.append(files.get(i)).append(File.separatorChar);
        }

        relativePath.deleteCharAt(relativePath.length() - 1);
        return relativePath.toString();
    }

}

从Java 7开始,你可以使用relativize方法:

import java.nio.file.Path;
import java.nio.file.Paths;

public class Test {

     public static void main(String[] args) {
        Path pathAbsolute = Paths.get("/var/data/stuff/xyz.dat");
        Path pathBase = Paths.get("/var/data");
        Path pathRelative = pathBase.relativize(pathAbsolute);
        System.out.println(pathRelative);
    }

}

输出:

stuff/xyz.dat

我知道这有点晚了,但是,我创建了一个解决方案,适用于任何java版本。

    public static String getRealtivePath(File root, File file) 
    {
        String path = file.getPath();
        String rootPath = root.getPath();
        boolean plus1 = path.contains(File.separator);
        return path.substring(path.indexOf(rootPath) + rootPath.length() + (plus1 ? 1 : 0));
    }
