有很多类似的解决方案可能会起作用。下面是一个简单有效的方法来完成try/catch，并在评论中进行了解释。

#!/bin/bash

function a() {
  # do some stuff here
}
function b() {
  # do more stuff here
}

# this subshell is a scope of try
# try
(
  # this flag will make to exit from current subshell on any error
  # inside it (all functions run inside will also break on any error)
  set -e
  a
  b
  # do more stuff here
)
# and here we catch errors
# catch
errorCode=$?
if [ $errorCode -ne 0 ]; then
  echo "We have an error"
  # We exit the all script with the same error, if you don't want to
  # exit it and continue, just delete this line.
  exit $errorCode
fi

你有陷阱http://www.tldp.org/LDP/Bash-Beginners-Guide/html/sect_12_02.html，这是不一样的，但你可以使用其他技术来达到这个目的

假设终端应用名为'app'(你希望它在你的$PATH中):

if [[ ! `which app` ]]; then
    # run code if app not installed
else
    # run code if app is installed
fi

正如大家所说，bash没有适当的语言支持的try/catch语法。您可以使用-e参数启动bash，或者在脚本中使用set -e来中止整个bash进程，如果任何命令有非零退出码的话。(你也可以设置+e来临时允许失败的命令。)

因此，模拟try/catch块的一种技术是在启用-e的情况下启动子进程来完成工作。然后在主进程中，检查子进程的返回码。

Bash支持heredoc字符串，因此不需要编写两个单独的文件来处理这个问题。在下面的示例中，TRY heredoc将在单独的bash实例中运行，并启用了-e，因此如果任何命令返回非零退出码，子进程将崩溃。然后，回到主进程，我们可以检查返回代码以处理一个catch块。

#!/bin/bash

set +e
bash -e <<TRY
  echo hello
  cd /does/not/exist
  echo world
TRY
if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then
  echo caught exception
fi

它不是一个适当的语言支持的try/catch块，但它可能会为您带来类似的体验。

以下是我在另一个答案中使用的简化脚本的完整副本。除了额外的错误检查之外，还有一个别名允许用户更改现有别名的名称。语法如下所示。如果省略new_alias参数，则别名将被删除。

ChangeAlias old_alias [new_alias]

完整的脚本如下所示。

你可以使用trap:

try {block A} catch {block B} finally {block C}

翻译:

(
  set -Ee
  function _catch {
    block B
    exit 0  # optional; use if you don't want to propagate (rethrow) error to outer shell
  }
  function _finally {
    block C
  }
  trap _catch ERR
  trap _finally EXIT
  block A
)
