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

我将只使用Perl来完成这个不那么简单的任务:

absolute="/foo/bar"
current="/foo/baz/foo"

# Perl is magic
relative=$(perl -MFile::Spec -e 'print File::Spec->abs2rel("'$absolute'","'$current'")')

我使用的macOS默认情况下没有realpath命令,所以我做了一个纯bash函数来计算它。

#!/bin/bash

##
# print a relative path from "source folder" to "target file"
#
# params:
#  $1 - target file, can be a relative path or an absolute path.
#  $2 - source folder, can be a relative path or an absolute path.
#
# test:
#  $ mkdir -p ~/A/B/C/D; touch ~/A/B/C/D/testfile.txt; touch ~/A/B/testfile.txt
#
#  $ getRelativePath ~/A/B/C/D/testfile.txt  ~/A/B
#  $ C/D/testfile.txt
#  
#  $ getRelativePath ~/A/B/testfile.txt  ~/A/B/C
#  $ ../testfile.txt
#
#  $ getRelativePath ~/A/B/testfile.txt  /
#  $ home/bunnier/A/B/testfile.txt 
#
function getRelativePath(){
    local targetFilename=$(basename $1)
    local targetFolder=$(cd $(dirname $1);pwd) # absolute target folder path
    local currentFolder=$(cd $2;pwd) # absulute source folder
    local result=.

    while [ "$currentFolder" != "$targetFolder" ];do
      if [[ "$targetFolder" =~ "$currentFolder"* ]];then
          pointSegment=${targetFolder#$currentFolder}
          result=$result/${pointSegment#/}
          break
      fi  
      result="$result"/..
      currentFolder=$(dirname $currentFolder)
    done

    result=$result/$targetFilename
    echo ${result#./}
}

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}
}
vrb () { $VERBOSE && print -P ${(%)@} || return 0; }

relpath_check () {
    [[ $# -ge 1 ]] && [[ $# -le 2 ]] || return 1
    target=${${2:-$1}}
    prefix=${${${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"
        print -P "${col}relpath: ${(qq)result}%f"
        print -P "${col}python:  ${(qq)py_result}%f\n"
    fi
}

run_checks () {
    print "Running checks..."

test.sh:

cd /home/ubuntu
touch blah
TEST=/home/ubuntu/.//blah
echo TEST=$TEST
TMP=$(readlink -e "$TEST")
echo TMP=$TMP
REL=${TMP#$(pwd)/}
echo REL=$REL

测试:

$ ./test.sh 
TEST=/home/ubuntu/.//blah
TMP=/home/ubuntu/blah
REL=blah

另一个解决方案,纯bash + GNU readlink,在以下上下文中易于使用:

ln -s "$(relpath "$A" "$B")" "$B"

编辑:确保“$B”是不存在或没有软链接在这种情况下,否则relpath遵循这个链接,这不是你想要的!

这几乎适用于当前所有的Linux。如果readlink -m在您这边不起作用,请尝试readlink -f。请参见https://gist.github.com/hilbix/1ec361d00a8178ae8ea0查看可能的更新:

: relpath A B
# Calculate relative path from A to B, returns true on success
# Example: ln -s "$(relpath "$A" "$B")" "$B"
relpath()
{
local X Y A
# We can create dangling softlinks
X="$(readlink -m -- "$1")" || return
Y="$(readlink -m -- "$2")" || return
X="${X%/}/"
A=""
while   Y="${Y%/*}"
        [ ".${X#"$Y"/}" = ".$X" ]
do
        A="../$A"
done
X="$A${X#"$Y"/}"
X="${X%/}"
echo "${X:-.}"
}

注:

Care was taken that it is safe against unwanted shell meta character expansion, in case filenames contain * or ?. The output is meant to be usable as the first argument to ln -s: relpath / / gives . and not the empty string relpath a a gives a, even if a happens to be a directory Most common cases were tested to give reasonable results, too. This solution uses string prefix matching, hence readlink is required to canonicalize paths. Thanks to readlink -m it works for not yet existing paths, too.

在旧系统上,readlink -m不可用,如果文件不存在,readlink -f将失败。所以你可能需要一些像这样的解决方法(未经测试!):

readlink_missing()
{
readlink -m -- "$1" && return
readlink -f -- "$1" && return
[ -e . ] && echo "$(readlink_missing "$(dirname "$1")")/$(basename "$1")"
}

这在$1包含的情况下是不正确的。或. .对于不存在的路径(如/doesnotexist/./a),但它应该涵盖大多数情况。

(用readlink_missing替换上面的readlink -m——)

编辑,因为下面是反对票

下面是一个测试,这个函数确实是正确的:

check()
{
res="$(relpath "$2" "$1")"
[ ".$res" = ".$3" ] && return
printf ':WRONG: %-10q %-10q gives %q\nCORRECT %-10q %-10q gives %q\n' "$1" "$2" "$res" "$@"
}

#     TARGET   SOURCE         RESULT
check "/A/B/C" "/A"           ".."
check "/A/B/C" "/A.x"         "../../A.x"
check "/A/B/C" "/A/B"         "."
check "/A/B/C" "/A/B/C"       "C"
check "/A/B/C" "/A/B/C/D"     "C/D"
check "/A/B/C" "/A/B/C/D/E"   "C/D/E"
check "/A/B/C" "/A/B/D"       "D"
check "/A/B/C" "/A/B/D/E"     "D/E"
check "/A/B/C" "/A/D"         "../D"
check "/A/B/C" "/A/D/E"       "../D/E"
check "/A/B/C" "/D/E/F"       "../../D/E/F"

check "/foo/baz/moo" "/foo/bar" "../bar"

困惑吗?好吧,这是正确的结果!即使你认为它不符合问题,以下是正确的证明:

check "http://example.com/foo/baz/moo" "http://example.com/foo/bar" "../bar"

毫无疑问,……/bar是从页面moo中看到的页面栏的准确且唯一正确的相对路径。其他一切都是完全错误的。

采用问题的输出很简单,显然假设current是一个目录:

absolute="/foo/bar"
current="/foo/baz/foo"
relative="../$(relpath "$absolute" "$current")"

这将返回所请求的内容。

在你感到惊讶之前,这里有一个稍微复杂一点的relpath变体(注意细微的区别),它也应该适用于url语法(因此,由于一些bash魔法,末尾/幸存下来):

# Calculate relative PATH to the given DEST from the given BASE
# In the URL case, both URLs must be absolute and have the same Scheme.
# The `SCHEME:` must not be present in the FS either.
# This way this routine works for file paths an
: relpathurl DEST BASE
relpathurl()
{
local X Y A
# We can create dangling softlinks
X="$(readlink -m -- "$1")" || return
Y="$(readlink -m -- "$2")" || return
X="${X%/}/${1#"${1%/}"}"
Y="${Y%/}${2#"${2%/}"}"
A=""
while   Y="${Y%/*}"
        [ ".${X#"$Y"/}" = ".$X" ]
do
        A="../$A"
done
X="$A${X#"$Y"/}"
X="${X%/}"
echo "${X:-.}"
}

这里有一些检查,只是为了弄清楚:它确实像所说的那样工作。

check()
{
res="$(relpathurl "$2" "$1")"
[ ".$res" = ".$3" ] && return
printf ':WRONG: %-10q %-10q gives %q\nCORRECT %-10q %-10q gives %q\n' "$1" "$2" "$res" "$@"
}

#     TARGET   SOURCE         RESULT
check "/A/B/C" "/A"           ".."
check "/A/B/C" "/A.x"         "../../A.x"
check "/A/B/C" "/A/B"         "."
check "/A/B/C" "/A/B/C"       "C"
check "/A/B/C" "/A/B/C/D"     "C/D"
check "/A/B/C" "/A/B/C/D/E"   "C/D/E"
check "/A/B/C" "/A/B/D"       "D"
check "/A/B/C" "/A/B/D/E"     "D/E"
check "/A/B/C" "/A/D"         "../D"
check "/A/B/C" "/A/D/E"       "../D/E"
check "/A/B/C" "/D/E/F"       "../../D/E/F"

check "/foo/baz/moo" "/foo/bar" "../bar"
check "http://example.com/foo/baz/moo" "http://example.com/foo/bar" "../bar"

check "http://example.com/foo/baz/moo/" "http://example.com/foo/bar" "../../bar"
check "http://example.com/foo/baz/moo"  "http://example.com/foo/bar/" "../bar/"
check "http://example.com/foo/baz/moo/"  "http://example.com/foo/bar/" "../../bar/"

下面是如何用它从问题中得到想要的结果:

absolute="/foo/bar"
current="/foo/baz/foo"
relative="$(relpathurl "$absolute" "$current/")"
echo "$relative"

如果你发现什么东西不起作用,请在下面的评论中告诉我。谢谢。

PS:

为什么relpath的论点与这里的所有其他答案相反?

如果你改变

Y="$(readlink -m -- "$2")" || return

to

Y="$(readlink -m -- "${2:-"$PWD"}")" || return

然后你可以去掉第二个参数,这样BASE就是当前目录/URL/任何东西。这只是Unix的原则。
