在Bash中，可以在[[]]内置函数中使用-v：

#! /bin/bash -u

if [[ ! -v SOMEVAR ]]; then
    SOMEVAR='hello'
fi

echo $SOMEVAR

您可以执行以下操作：

function a {
        if [ ! -z "$1" ]; then
                echo '$1 is set'
        fi
}

case "$1" in
 "") echo "blank";;
 *) echo "set"
esac

当启用Bash选项集-u时，上面的答案不起作用。此外，它们不是动态的，例如，如何测试是否定义了名为“dummy”的变量？试试看：

is_var_defined()
{
    if [ $# -ne 1 ]
    then
        echo "Expected exactly one argument: variable name as string, e.g., 'my_var'"
        exit 1
    fi
    # Tricky.  Since Bash option 'set -u' may be enabled, we cannot directly test if a variable
    # is defined with this construct: [ ! -z "$var" ].  Instead, we must use default value
    # substitution with this construct: [ ! -z "${var:-}" ].  Normally, a default value follows the
    # operator ':-', but here we leave it blank for empty (null) string.  Finally, we need to
    # substitute the text from $1 as 'var'.  This is not allowed directly in Bash with this
    # construct: [ ! -z "${$1:-}" ].  We need to use indirection with eval operator.
    # Example: $1="var"
    # Expansion for eval operator: "[ ! -z \${$1:-} ]" -> "[ ! -z \${var:-} ]"
    # Code  execute: [ ! -z ${var:-} ]
    eval "[ ! -z \${$1:-} ]"
    return $?  # Pedantic.
}

要检查是否设置了变量，请执行以下操作：

var=""; [[ $var ]] && echo "set" || echo "not set"

有许多方法可以做到这一点，以下是其中之一：

if [ -z "$1" ]

如果$1为空或未设置，则此操作成功。
