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
使用GNU coreutils 8.23中的realpath是最简单的，我认为:
$ realpath --relative-to="$file1" "$file2"
例如:
$ realpath --relative-to=/usr/bin/nmap /tmp/testing
../../../tmp/testing
其他回答
test.sh:
#!/bin/bash
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
kasku和Pini的答案略有改进，空格更好，允许传递相对路径:
#!/bin/bash
# both $1 and $2 are paths
# returns $2 relative to $1
absolute=`readlink -f "$2"`
current=`readlink -f "$1"`
# Perl is magic
# Quoting horror.... spaces cause problems, that's why we need the extra " in here:
relative=$(perl -MFile::Spec -e "print File::Spec->abs2rel(q($absolute),q($current))")
echo $relative
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 $current
.．.会很好。
我将只使用Perl来完成这个不那么简单的任务:
absolute="/foo/bar"
current="/foo/baz/foo"
# Perl is magic
relative=$(perl -MFile::Spec -e 'print File::Spec->abs2rel("'$absolute'","'$current'")')
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。
