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。

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##+( )}%%+( )}
其他回答
使用AWK:
echo $var | awk '{gsub(/^ +| +$/,"")}1'
#!/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]
#[]
# Trim whitespace from both ends of specified parameter
trim () {
read -rd '' $1 <<<"${!1}"
}
# Unit test for trim()
test_trim () {
local foo="$1"
trim foo
test "$foo" = "$2"
}
test_trim hey hey &&
test_trim ' hey' hey &&
test_trim 'ho ' ho &&
test_trim 'hey ho' 'hey ho' &&
test_trim ' hey ho ' 'hey ho' &&
test_trim $'\n\n\t hey\n\t ho \t\n' $'hey\n\t ho' &&
test_trim $'\n' '' &&
test_trim '\n' '\n' &&
echo passed
我将简单地使用sed:
function trim
{
echo "$1" | sed -n '1h;1!H;${;g;s/^[ \t]*//g;s/[ \t]*$//g;p;}'
}
a)单行字符串使用示例
string=' wordA wordB wordC wordD '
trimmed=$( trim "$string" )
echo "GIVEN STRING: |$string|"
echo "TRIMMED STRING: |$trimmed|"
输出:
GIVEN STRING: | wordA wordB wordC wordD |
TRIMMED STRING: |wordA wordB wordC wordD|
b)多行字符串使用示例
string=' wordA
>wordB<
wordC '
trimmed=$( trim "$string" )
echo -e "GIVEN STRING: |$string|\n"
echo "TRIMMED STRING: |$trimmed|"
输出:
GIVEN STRING: | wordAA
>wordB<
wordC |
TRIMMED STRING: |wordAA
>wordB<
wordC|
c)最后说明: 如果你不喜欢使用函数，对于单行字符串，你可以简单地使用“更容易记住”的命令，比如:
echo "$string" | sed -e 's/^[ \t]*//' | sed -e 's/[ \t]*$//'
例子:
echo " wordA wordB wordC " | sed -e 's/^[ \t]*//' | sed -e 's/[ \t]*$//'
输出:
wordA wordB wordC
在多行字符串上使用上述方法也可以，但请注意，它也会切断任何尾随/前导内部多行空间，就像GuruM在评论中注意到的那样
string=' wordAA
>four spaces before<
>one space before< '
echo "$string" | sed -e 's/^[ \t]*//' | sed -e 's/[ \t]*$//'
输出:
wordAA
>four spaces before<
>one space before<
所以如果你介意保留这些空格，请使用我回答开头的函数!
d)解释sed语法“find and replace”在函数trim中使用的多行字符串:
sed -n '
# If the first line, copy the pattern to the hold buffer
1h
# If not the first line, then append the pattern to the hold buffer
1!H
# If the last line then ...
$ {
# Copy from the hold to the pattern buffer
g
# Do the search and replace
s/^[ \t]*//g
s/[ \t]*$//g
# print
p
}'
创建一个数组而不是变量，这将修剪所有的空格，制表符和换行符:
arr=( $(hg st -R "$path") )
if [[ -n "${arr[@]}" ]]; then
printf -- '%s\n' "${arr[@]}"
fi
