给定一个绝对路径或相对路径(在类unix系统中),我希望在解析任何中间符号链接之后确定目标的完整路径。同时还可以解析~用户名符号。

如果目标是一个目录,则可以将chdir()放入该目录,然后调用getcwd(),但我确实希望从shell脚本而不是编写C helper来完成此操作。不幸的是,shell倾向于试图向用户隐藏符号链接的存在(这是OS X上的bash):

$ ls -ld foo bar
drwxr-xr-x   2 greg  greg  68 Aug 11 22:36 bar
lrwxr-xr-x   1 greg  greg   3 Aug 11 22:36 foo -> bar
$ cd foo
$ pwd
/Users/greg/tmp/foo
$

我想要的是一个函数resolve(),这样当从上面的例子中的tmp目录执行时,resolve("foo") == "/Users/greg/tmp/bar"。

function realpath {
    local r=$1; local t=$(readlink $r)
    while [ $t ]; do
        r=$(cd $(dirname $r) && cd $(dirname $t) && pwd -P)/$(basename $t)
        t=$(readlink $r)
    done
    echo $r
}

#example usage
SCRIPT_PARENT_DIR=$(dirname $(realpath "$0"))/..

其他回答

如果你只是想要目录,“pwd -P”似乎可以工作,但如果出于某种原因你想要实际可执行文件的名称,我认为这没有帮助。以下是我的解决方案:

#!/bin/bash

# get the absolute path of the executable
SELF_PATH=$(cd -P -- "$(dirname -- "$0")" && pwd -P) && SELF_PATH=$SELF_PATH/$(basename -- "$0")

# resolve symlinks
while [[ -h $SELF_PATH ]]; do
    # 1) cd to directory of the symlink
    # 2) cd to the directory of where the symlink points
    # 3) get the pwd
    # 4) append the basename
    DIR=$(dirname -- "$SELF_PATH")
    SYM=$(readlink "$SELF_PATH")
    SELF_PATH=$(cd "$DIR" && cd "$(dirname -- "$SYM")" && pwd)/$(basename -- "$SYM")
done
function realpath {
    local r=$1; local t=$(readlink $r)
    while [ $t ]; do
        r=$(cd $(dirname $r) && cd $(dirname $t) && pwd -P)/$(basename $t)
        t=$(readlink $r)
    done
    echo $r
}

#example usage
SCRIPT_PARENT_DIR=$(dirname $(realpath "$0"))/..

在这里,我提出了一个我认为是跨平台(至少Linux和macOS)的解决方案,目前对我来说效果很好。

crosspath()
{
    local ref="$1"
    if [ -x "$(which realpath)" ]; then
        path="$(realpath "$ref")"
    else
        path="$(readlink -f "$ref" 2> /dev/null)"
        if [ $? -gt 0 ]; then
            if [ -x "$(which readlink)" ]; then
                if [ ! -z "$(readlink "$ref")" ]; then
                    ref="$(readlink "$ref")"
                fi
            else
                echo "realpath and readlink not available. The following may not be the final path." 1>&2
            fi
            if [ -d "$ref" ]; then
                path="$(cd "$ref"; pwd -P)"
            else
                path="$(cd $(dirname "$ref"); pwd -P)/$(basename "$ref")"
            fi
        fi
    fi
    echo "$path"
}

这里有一个macOS(仅?)解决方案。也许更适合最初的问题。

mac_realpath()
{
    local ref="$1"
    if [[ ! -z "$(readlink "$ref")" ]]; then
        ref="$(readlink "$1")"
    fi
    if [[ -d "$ref" ]]; then
        echo "$(cd "$ref"; pwd -P)"
    else
        echo "$(cd $(dirname "$ref"); pwd -P)/$(basename "$ref")"
    fi
}

我最喜欢的一个是realpath foo

realpath - return the canonicalized absolute pathname

realpath  expands  all  symbolic  links  and resolves references to '/./', '/../' and extra '/' characters in the null terminated string named by path and
       stores the canonicalized absolute pathname in the buffer of size PATH_MAX named by resolved_path.  The resulting path will have no symbolic link, '/./' or
       '/../' components.

下面是如何使用内联Perl脚本在MacOS/Unix中获得文件的实际路径:

FILE=$(perl -e "use Cwd qw(abs_path); print abs_path('$0')")

类似地,要获取符号链接文件的目录:

DIR=$(perl -e "use Cwd qw(abs_path); use File::Basename; print dirname(abs_path('$0'))")
