This is such a frequent problem that we have put together a Bash 4 library for free use (MIT License) called realpath-lib. This is designed to emulate readlink -f by default and includes two test suites to verify (1) that it works for a given unix system and (2) against readlink -f if installed (but this is not required). Additionally, it can be used to investigate, identify and unwind deep, broken symlinks and circular references, so it can be a useful tool for diagnosing deeply-nested physical or symbolic directory and file problems. It can be found at github.com or bitbucket.org.

另一个非常紧凑和高效的解决方案，它只依赖于Bash:

function get_realpath() {

    [[ ! -f "$1" ]] && return 1 # failure : file does not exist.
    [[ -n "$no_symlinks" ]] && local pwdp='pwd -P' || local pwdp='pwd' # do symlinks.
    echo "$( cd "$( echo "${1%/*}" )" 2>/dev/null; $pwdp )"/"${1##*/}" # echo result.
    return 0 # success

}

这还包括一个环境设置no_symlinks，它提供了将符号链接解析到物理系统的能力。只要no_symlinks被设置为某个值，即no_symlinks='on'，那么symlinks将被解析为物理系统。否则将应用它们(默认设置)。

这应该可以在任何提供Bash的系统上工作，并将返回一个与Bash兼容的退出代码用于测试。

由于使用非bsd Linux和macOS的人都使用我的工作，所以我选择在构建脚本中使用这些别名(包括sed，因为它有类似的问题):

##
# If you're running macOS, use homebrew to install greadlink/gsed first:
#   brew install coreutils
#
# Example use:
#   # Gets the directory of the currently running script
#   dotfilesDir=$(dirname "$(globalReadlink -fm "$0")")
#   alias al='pico ${dotfilesDir}/aliases.local'
##

function globalReadlink () {
  # Use greadlink if on macOS; otherwise use normal readlink
  if [[ $OSTYPE == darwin* ]]; then
    greadlink "$@"
  else
    readlink "$@"
  fi
}

function globalSed () {
  # Use gsed if on macOS; otherwise use normal sed
  if [[ $OSTYPE == darwin* ]]; then
    gsed "$@"
  else
    sed "$@"
  fi
}

可选检查，您可以添加自动安装homebrew + coreutils依赖项:

if [[ "$OSTYPE" == "darwin"* ]]; then
  # Install brew if needed
  if [ -z "$(which brew)" ]; then 
    /usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"; 
  fi
  # Check for coreutils
  if [ -z "$(brew ls coreutils)" ]; then
    brew install coreutils
  fi
fi

我想要真正做到“全球化”，它需要检查其他国家……但这可能接近80/20的标记。

来自@Keith Smith的回答给出了一个无限循环。

这是我的答案，我只在SunOS上使用(SunOS错过了很多POSIX和GNU命令)。

这是一个脚本文件，你必须把它放在你的$PATH目录之一:

#!/bin/sh
! (($#)) && echo -e "ERROR: readlink <link to analyze>" 1>&2 && exit 99

link="$1"
while [ -L "$link" ]; do
  lastLink="$link"
  link=$(/bin/ls -ldq "$link")
  link="${link##* -> }"
  link=$(realpath "$link")
  [ "$link" == "$lastlink" ] && echo -e "ERROR: link loop detected on $link" 1>&2 && break
done

echo "$link"

Echo $(cd $(dirname file1);pwd - p)

FreeBSD和OSX都有一个来自NetBSD的statage版本。

您可以使用格式开关调整输出(参见上面链接的手册页)。

%  cd  /service
%  ls -tal 
drwxr-xr-x 22 root wheel 27 Aug 25 10:41 ..
drwx------  3 root wheel  8 Jun 30 13:59 .s6-svscan
drwxr-xr-x  3 root wheel  5 Jun 30 13:34 .
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root wheel 30 Dec 13 2013 clockspeed-adjust -> /var/service/clockspeed-adjust
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root wheel 29 Dec 13 2013 clockspeed-speed -> /var/service/clockspeed-speed
% stat -f%R  clockspeed-adjust
/var/service/clockspeed-adjust
% stat -f%Y  clockspeed-adjust
/var/service/clockspeed-adjust

某些OS X版本的stat可能没有-f%R选项用于格式化。在这种情况下-stat -f%Y就足够了。-f%Y选项将显示符号链接的目标，而-f%R显示与文件对应的绝对路径名。

编辑:

如果你能使用Perl (Darwin/OS X安装了最新版本的Perl)，那么:

perl -MCwd=abs_path -le 'print abs_path readlink(shift);' linkedfile.txt

将工作。
