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。
当前回答
#!/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]
#[]

剥离一个前导和一个后导空间
trim()
{
local trimmed="$1"
# Strip leading space.
trimmed="${trimmed## }"
# Strip trailing space.
trimmed="${trimmed%% }"
echo "$trimmed"
}
例如:
test1="$(trim " one leading")"
test2="$(trim "one trailing ")"
test3="$(trim " one leading and one trailing ")"
echo "'$test1', '$test2', '$test3'"
输出:
'one leading', 'one trailing', 'one leading and one trailing'
去掉所有前导和尾随空格
trim()
{
local trimmed="$1"
# Strip leading spaces.
while [[ $trimmed == ' '* ]]; do
trimmed="${trimmed## }"
done
# Strip trailing spaces.
while [[ $trimmed == *' ' ]]; do
trimmed="${trimmed%% }"
done
echo "$trimmed"
}
例如:
test4="$(trim " two leading")"
test5="$(trim "two trailing ")"
test6="$(trim " two leading and two trailing ")"
echo "'$test4', '$test5', '$test6'"
输出:
'two leading', 'two trailing', 'two leading and two trailing'
使用Bash的扩展模式匹配功能(shopt -s extglob)，你可以这样使用:
修剪{# # * ()}
删除任意数量的前导空格。
这将删除字符串中的所有空格，
VAR2="${VAR2//[[:space:]]/}"
/替换字符串中第一次出现的空格和//所有出现的空格。也就是说，所有的空格都被- nothing取代
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##+( )}%%+( )}
使用AWK:
echo $var | awk '{gsub(/^ +| +$/,"")}1'
