在您的编辑器中输入以上内容,然后将其保存为一个文件first。之后执行chmod +x first
使其可执行,最后输入./first执行该脚本。
这个脚本将会输出:
A is:
hello world
有时候变量名很容易与其他文字混淆,比如:
num=2
echo "this is the $numnd"
这并不会打印出"this is the 2nd",而仅仅打印"this is the ",因为shell会去搜索变量numnd的值,但是这个变量时没有值的。可以使用花括号来告诉shell我们要打印的是num变量:
num=2
echo "this is the ${num}nd"
这将打印: this is the 2nd
反短斜线
使用反短斜线可以将一个命令的输出作为另外一个命令的一个命令行参数。
命令:
find . -mtime -1 -type f -print
用来查找过去24小时(-mtime –2则表示过去48小时)内修改过的文件。如果您想将所有查找到的文件打一个包,则可以使用以下脚本:
#!/bin/sh
# The ticks are backticks (`) not normal quotes ('):
tar -zcvf lastmod.tar.gz `find . -mtime -1 -type f -print`
3) 流程控制
"if" 表达式 如果条件为真则执行then后面的部分:
if ....; then
....
elif ....; then
....
else
....
fi
大多数情况下,可以使用测试命令来对条件进行测试。比如可以比较字符串、判断文件是否存在及是否可读等等…
通常用" [ ] "来表示条件测试。注意这里的空格很重要。要确保方括号的空格。
[ -f "somefile" ] :判断是否是一个文件
[ -x "/bin/ls" ] :判断/bin/ls是否存在并有可执行权限
[ -n "$var" ] :判断$var变量是否有值
[ "$a" = "$b" ] :判断$a和$b是否相等
执行man test可以查看所有测试表达式可以比较和判断的类型。
直接执行以下脚本:
#!/bin/sh
if [ "$SHELL" = "/bin/bash" ]; then
echo "your login shell is the bash (bourne again shell)"
else
echo "your login shell is not bash but $SHELL"
fi
变量$SHELL包含了登录shell的名称,我们和/bin/bash进行了比较。
case表达式可以用来匹配一个给定的字符串,而不是数字。
case ... in
...) do something here ;;
esac
让我们看一个例子。 file命令可以辨别出一个给定文件的文件类型,比如:
file lf.gz
这将返回:
lf.gz: gzip compressed data, deflated, original filename,
last modified: Mon Aug 27 23:09:18 2001, os: Unix
我们利用这一点写了一个叫做smartzip的脚本,该脚本可以自动解压bzip2, gzip 和zip 类型的压缩文件:
#!/bin/sh
ftype=`file "$1"`
case "$ftype" in
"$1: Zip archive"*)
unzip "$1" ;;
"$1: gzip compressed"*)
gunzip "$1" ;;
"$1: bzip2 compressed"*)
bunzip2 "$1" ;;
*) error "File $1 can not be uncompressed with smartzip";;
esac
select 表达式是一种bash的扩展应用,尤其擅长于交互式使用。用户可以从一组不同的值中进行选择。
select var in ... ; do
break
done
.... now $var can be used ....
下面是一个例子:
#!/bin/sh
echo "What is your favourite OS?"
select var in "Linux" "Gnu Hurd" "Free BSD" "Other"; do
break
done
echo "You have selected $var"
下面是该脚本运行的结果:
What is your favourite OS?
1) Linux
2) Gnu Hurd
3) Free BSD
4) Other
#? 1
You have selected Linux
您也可以在shell中使用如下的loop表达式:
while ...; do
....
done
while-loop 将运行直到表达式测试为真。will run while the expression that we test for is true. 关键字"break" 用来跳出循环。而关键字”continue”用来不执行余下的部分而直接跳到下一个循环。
for-loop表达式查看一个字符串列表 (字符串用空格分隔) 然后将其赋给一个变量:
for var in ....; do
....
done
在下面的例子中,将分别打印ABC到屏幕上:
#!/bin/sh
for var in A B C ; do
echo "var is $var"
done
下面是一个更为有用的脚本showrpm,其功能是打印一些RPM包的统计信息:
#!/bin/sh
# list a content summary of a number of RPM packages
# USAGE: showrpm rpmfile1 rpmfile2 ...
# EXAMPLE: showrpm /cdrom/RedHat/RPMS/*.rpm
for rpmpackage in $*; do
if [ -r "$rpmpackage" ];then
echo "=============== $rpmpackage =============="
rpm -qi -p $rpmpackage
else
echo "ERROR: cannot read file $rpmpackage"
fi
done
#!/bin/sh
# we have less than 3 arguments. Print the help text:
if [ $# -lt 3 ] ; then
cat <<HELP
ren -- renames a number of files using sed regular expressions
USAGE: ren 'regexp' 'replacement' files...
EXAMPLE: rename all *.HTM files in *.html:
ren 'HTM$' 'html' *.HTM
HELP
exit 0
fi
OLD="$1"
NEW="$2"
# The shift command removes one argument from the list of
# command line arguments.
shift
shift
# $* contains now all the files:
for file in $*; do
if [ -f "$file" ] ; then
newfile=`echo "$file" | sed "s/${OLD}/${NEW}/g"`
if [ -f "$newfile" ]; then
echo "ERROR: $newfile exists already"
else
echo "renaming $file to $newfile ..."
mv "$file" "$newfile"
fi
fi
done
如果您写了一些稍微复杂一些的程序,您就会发现在程序中可能在几个地方使用了相同的代码,并且您也会发现,如果我们使用了函数,会方便很多。一个函数是这个样子的:
functionname()
{
# inside the body $1 is the first argument given to the function
# $2 the second ...
body
}
您需要在每个程序的开始对函数进行声明。
下面是一个叫做xtitlebar的脚本,使用这个脚本您可以改变终端窗口的名称。这里使用了一个叫做help的函数。正如您可以看到的那样,这个定义的函数被使用了两次。
#!/bin/sh
# vim: set sw=4 ts=4 et:
help()
{
cat <<HELP
xtitlebar -- change the name of an xterm, gnome-terminal or kde konsole
USAGE: xtitlebar [-h] "string_for_titelbar"
OPTIONS: -h help text
EXAMPLE: xtitlebar "cvs"
HELP
exit 0
}
# in case of error or if -h is given we call the function help:
[ -z "$1" ] && help
[ "$1" = "-h" ] && help
# send the escape sequence to change the xterm titelbar:
echo -e "33]0;$107"
#
有好多方法可以实现对输入参数的分析,但是下面的使用case表达式的例子无遗是一个不错的方法。
#!/bin/sh
help()
{
cat <<HELP
This is a generic command line parser demo.
USAGE EXAMPLE: cmdparser -l hello -f -- -somefile1 somefile2
HELP
exit 0
}
while [ -n "$1" ]; do

esac
done
echo "opt_f is $opt_f"
echo "opt_l is $opt_l"
echo "first arg is $1"
echo "2nd arg is $2"
error()
{
# print an error and exit
echo "$1"
exit 1
}
lastchar()
{
# return the last character of a string in $rval
if [ -z "$1" ]; then
# empty string

}
chop()

case $1 in

文件循环程序
或许您是想将所有发出的邮件保存到一个文件中的人们中的一员,但是在过了几个月以后,这个文件可能会变得很大以至于使对该文件的访问速度变慢。下面的脚本rotatefile 可以解决这个问题。这个脚本可以重命名邮件保存文件(假设为outmail)为outmail.1,而对于outmail.1就变成了outmail.2 等等等等...
#!/bin/sh
# vim: set sw=4 ts=4 et:
ver="0.1"
help()
{
cat <<HELP
rotatefile -- rotate the file name
USAGE: rotatefile [-h] filename
OPTIONS: -h help text
EXAMPLE: rotatefile out
This will e.g rename out.2 to out.3, out.1 to out.2, out to out.1
and create an empty out-file
The max number is 10
version $ver
HELP
exit 0
}
error()

}
while [ -n "$1" ]; do
case $1 in
-h) help;shift 1;;
--) break;;
-*) echo "error: no such option $1. -h for help";exit 1;;
*) break;;
esac
done
# input check:
if [ -z "$1" ] ; then
error "ERROR: you must specify a file, use -h for help"
fi
filen="$1"
# rename any .1 , .2 etc file:
for n in 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1; do
if [ -f "$filen.$n" ]; then
p=`expr $n + 1`
echo "mv $filen.$n $filen.$p"
mv $filen.$n $filen.$p
fi
done
# rename the original file:
if [ -f "$filen" ]; then
echo "mv $filen $filen.1"
mv $filen $filen.1

echo touch $filen
touch $filen
