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"。


当前回答

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'))")

其他回答

这是在Bash 3.2.57中测试过的最佳解决方案:

# Read a path (similar to `readlink`) recursively, until the physical path without any links (like `cd -P`) is found.
# Accepts any existing path, prints its physical path and exits `0`, exits `1` if some contained links don't exist.
# Motivation: `${BASH_SOURCE[0]}` often contains links; using it directly to extract your project's path may fail.
#
# Example: Safely `source` a file located relative to the current script
#
#     source "$(dirname "$(rreadlink "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}")")/relative/script.sh"
#Inspiration: https://stackoverflow.com/a/51089005/6307827
rreadlink () {
    declare p="$1" d l
    while :; do
        d="$(cd -P "$(dirname "$p")" && pwd)" || return $? #absolute path without symlinks
        p="$d/$(basename "$p")"
        if [ -h "$p" ]; then
            l="$(readlink "$p")" || break

            #A link must be resolved from its fully resolved parent dir.
            d="$(cd "$d" && cd -P "$(dirname "$l")" && pwd)" || return $?
            p="$d/$(basename "$l")"
        else
            break
        fi
    done
    printf '%s\n' "$p"
}

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.

这是Bash中的符号链接解析器,无论链接是目录还是非目录都可以工作:

function readlinks {(
  set -o errexit -o nounset
  declare n=0 limit=1024 link="$1"

  # If it's a directory, just skip all this.
  if cd "$link" 2>/dev/null
  then
    pwd -P
    return 0
  fi

  # Resolve until we are out of links (or recurse too deep).
  while [[ -L $link ]] && [[ $n -lt $limit ]]
  do
    cd "$(dirname -- "$link")"
    n=$((n + 1))
    link="$(readlink -- "${link##*/}")"
  done
  cd "$(dirname -- "$link")"

  if [[ $n -ge $limit ]]
  then
    echo "Recursion limit ($limit) exceeded." >&2
    return 2
  fi

  printf '%s/%s\n' "$(pwd -P)" "${link##*/}"
)}

注意,所有的cd和set都发生在一个子shell中。

为了解决Mac不兼容的问题,我想到了

echo `php -r "echo realpath('foo');"`

不是很好,但是跨越了操作系统

我的2分钱。这个函数是POSIX兼容的,源和目标都可以包含->。但是,我还没有让它与容器换行符或制表符的文件名一起工作,因为ls通常有这些问题。

resolve_symlink() {
  test -L "$1" && ls -l "$1" | awk -v SYMLINK="$1" '{ SL=(SYMLINK)" -> "; i=index($0, SL); s=substr($0, i+length(SL)); print s }'
}

我认为这里的解决方案是file命令,使用一个自定义魔术文件,只输出所提供的符号链接的目标。
