例子:
absolute="/foo/bar"
current="/foo/baz/foo"
# Magic
relative="../../bar"
我如何创造魔法(希望不是太复杂的代码…)?
当前回答
自2001年以来，它被内置到Perl中，因此它几乎可以在您能想象到的所有系统上工作，甚至VMS。
perl -le 'use File::Spec; print File::Spec->abs2rel(@ARGV)' FILE BASE
而且，解决方案很容易理解。
举个例子:
perl -le 'use File::Spec; print File::Spec->abs2rel(@ARGV)' $absolute $current
.．.会很好。
其他回答
Python的os.path.relpath作为shell函数
这个relpath练习的目标是模仿xni提出的Python 2.7的os.path.relpath函数(从Python 2.6版可用，但只能在2.7中正常工作)。因此，一些结果可能与其他答案中提供的函数不同。
(我没有在路径中测试换行符，因为它破坏了基于从ZSH调用python -c的验证。经过一些努力，这当然是可能的。)
关于Bash中的“魔法”，我很久以前就放弃了在Bash中寻找魔法，但我已经在ZSH中找到了我需要的所有魔法，然后是一些。
因此，我提出了两种实现。
第一个实现的目标是完全兼容posix。我已经在Debian 6.0.6的“挤压”上用/bin/dash测试了它。它还可以在OS X 10.8.3上完美地与/bin/sh一起工作，这实际上是伪装成POSIX shell的Bash版本3.2。
第二个实现是一个ZSH shell函数，它对路径中的多个斜杠和其他麻烦具有健壮性。如果您有可用的ZSH，这是推荐的版本，即使您是在下面给出的脚本形式中调用它(即使用#!/usr/bin/env zsh)。
最后，我编写了一个ZSH脚本，根据其他答案中提供的测试用例，验证$PATH中relpath命令的输出。我通过添加一些空格、制表符和标点符号，例如!？ *在这里和那里，还抛出了另一个测试与vim-powerline中发现的奇异UTF-8字符。
POSIX外壳函数
首先，posix兼容的shell函数。它适用于各种路径，但不清除多个斜杠或解析符号链接。
#!/bin/sh
relpath () {
[ $# -ge 1 ] && [ $# -le 2 ] || return 1
current="${2:+"$1"}"
target="${2:-"$1"}"
[ "$target" != . ] || target=/
target="/${target##/}"
[ "$current" != . ] || current=/
current="${current:="/"}"
current="/${current##/}"
appendix="${target##/}"
relative=''
while appendix="${target#"$current"/}"
[ "$current" != '/' ] && [ "$appendix" = "$target" ]; do
if [ "$current" = "$appendix" ]; then
relative="${relative:-.}"
echo "${relative#/}"
return 0
fi
current="${current%/*}"
relative="$relative${relative:+/}.."
done
relative="$relative${relative:+${appendix:+/}}${appendix#/}"
echo "$relative"
}
relpath "$@"
ZSH壳函数
现在是更加健壮的zsh版本。如果您希望它将参数解析为真实路径à la realpath -f(在Linux coreutils包中可用)，请将第3行和第4行上的:a替换为:a。
要在zsh中使用它，请删除第一行和最后一行，并将其放在$FPATH变量中的目录中。
#!/usr/bin/env zsh
relpath () {
[[ $# -ge 1 ]] && [[ $# -le 2 ]] || return 1
local target=${${2:-$1}:a} # replace `:a' by `:A` to resolve symlinks
local current=${${${2:+$1}:-$PWD}:a} # replace `:a' by `:A` to resolve symlinks
local appendix=${target#/}
local relative=''
while appendix=${target#$current/}
[[ $current != '/' ]] && [[ $appendix = $target ]]; do
if [[ $current = $appendix ]]; then
relative=${relative:-.}
print ${relative#/}
return 0
fi
current=${current%/*}
relative="$relative${relative:+/}.."
done
relative+=${relative:+${appendix:+/}}${appendix#/}
print $relative
}
relpath "$@"
测试脚本
最后是测试脚本。它接受一个选项，即-v来启用详细输出。
#!/usr/bin/env zsh
set -eu
VERBOSE=false
script_name=$(basename $0)
usage () {
print "\n Usage: $script_name SRC_PATH DESTINATION_PATH\n" >&2
exit ${1:=1}

relpath_check () {

prefix=${${${2:+$1}:-$PWD}}
result=$(relpath $prefix $target)
# Compare with python's os.path.relpath function
py_result=$(python -c "import os.path; print os.path.relpath('$target', '$prefix')")
col='%F{green}'
if [[ $result != $py_result ]] && col='%F{red}' || $VERBOSE; then
print -P "${col}Source: '$prefix'\nDestination: '$target'%f"
