我有一个shell脚本与这段代码:
var=`hg st -R "$path"`
if [ -n "$var" ]; then
echo $var
fi
但是条件代码总是执行，因为hg st总是打印至少一个换行符。
是否有一个简单的方法从$var中剥离空白(如PHP中的trim())?
or
有没有处理这个问题的标准方法?
我可以使用sed或AWK，但我认为有一个更优雅的解决方案来解决这个问题。

var=" a b "
echo "$(set -f; echo $var)"
>a b

#!/bin/bash
function trim
{
typeset trimVar
eval trimVar="\${$1}"
read trimVar << EOTtrim
$trimVar
EOTtrim
eval $1=\$trimVar
}
# Note that the parameter to the function is the NAME of the variable to trim,
# not the variable contents. However, the contents are trimmed.
# Example of use:
while read aLine
do
trim aline
echo "[${aline}]"
done < info.txt
# File info.txt contents:
# ------------------------------
# ok hello there $
# another line here $
#and yet another $
# only at the front$
#$
# Output:
#[ok hello there]
#[another line here]
#[and yet another]
#[only at the front]
#[]
如果启用了shop -s extglob，那么下面是一个简洁的解决方案。
这招对我很管用:
text=" trim my edges "
trimmed=$text
trimmed=${trimmed##+( )} #Remove longest matching series of spaces from the front
trimmed=${trimmed%%+( )} #Remove longest matching series of spaces from the back
echo "<$trimmed>" #Adding angle braces just to make it easier to confirm that all spaces are removed
#Result
<trim my edges>
用更少的行数来获得相同的结果:
text=" trim my edges "
trimmed=${${text##+( )}%%+( )}
# Strip leading and trailing white space (new line inclusive).
trim(){
[[ "$1" =~ [^[:space:]](.*[^[:space:]])? ]]
printf "%s" "$BASH_REMATCH"
}
OR
# Strip leading white space (new line inclusive).
ltrim(){
[[ "$1" =~ [^[:space:]].* ]]
printf "%s" "$BASH_REMATCH"
}
# Strip trailing white space (new line inclusive).
rtrim(){
[[ "$1" =~ .*[^[:space:]] ]]
printf "%s" "$BASH_REMATCH"
}
# Strip leading and trailing white space (new line inclusive).
trim(){
printf "%s" "$(rtrim "$(ltrim "$1")")"
}
OR
# Strip leading and trailing specified characters. ex: str=$(trim "$str" $'\n a')
trim(){
if [ "$2" ]; then
trim_chrs="$2"
else
trim_chrs="[:space:]"
fi
[[ "$1" =~ ^["$trim_chrs"]*(.*[^"$trim_chrs"])["$trim_chrs"]*$ ]]
printf "%s" "${BASH_REMATCH[1]}"
}
OR
# Strip leading specified characters. ex: str=$(ltrim "$str" $'\n a')
ltrim(){
if [ "$2" ]; then
trim_chrs="$2"
else
trim_chrs="[:space:]"
fi
[[ "$1" =~ ^["$trim_chrs"]*(.*[^"$trim_chrs"]) ]]
printf "%s" "${BASH_REMATCH[1]}"
}
# Strip trailing specified characters. ex: str=$(rtrim "$str" $'\n a')
rtrim(){
if [ "$2" ]; then
trim_chrs="$2"
else
trim_chrs="[:space:]"
fi
[[ "$1" =~ ^(.*[^"$trim_chrs"])["$trim_chrs"]*$ ]]
printf "%s" "${BASH_REMATCH[1]}"
}
# Strip leading and trailing specified characters. ex: str=$(trim "$str" $'\n a')
trim(){
printf "%s" "$(rtrim "$(ltrim "$1" "$2")" "$2")"
}

建立在moskit的expr soulution…
# Strip leading and trailing white space (new line inclusive).
trim(){
printf "%s" "`expr "$1" : "^[[:space:]]*\(.*[^[:space:]]\)[[:space:]]*$"`"
}
OR
# Strip leading white space (new line inclusive).
ltrim(){
printf "%s" "`expr "$1" : "^[[:space:]]*\(.*[^[:space:]]\)"`"
}
# Strip trailing white space (new line inclusive).
rtrim(){
printf "%s" "`expr "$1" : "^\(.*[^[:space:]]\)[[:space:]]*$"`"
}
# Strip leading and trailing white space (new line inclusive).
trim(){
printf "%s" "$(rtrim "$(ltrim "$1")")"
}
使用AWK:
echo $var | awk '{gsub(/^ +| +$/,"")}1'
Use:
var=`expr "$var" : "^\ *\(.*[^ ]\)\ *$"`
它去掉了开头和结尾的空格，我认为这是最基本的解决方案。不是Bash内置的，但'expr'是coreutils的一部分，所以至少不需要像sed或AWK这样的独立实用程序。
