问题
I wish to have long and short forms of command line options invoked using my shell script.
I know that getopts can be used, but like in Perl, I have not been able to do the same with shell.
Any ideas on how this can be done, so that I can use options like:
./shell.sh --copyfile abc.pl /tmp/
./shell.sh -c abc.pl /tmp/
In the above, both the commands mean the same thing to my shell, but using getopts, I have not been able to implement these?
回答1:
There are three implementations that may be considered:
Bash builtin
getopts. This does not support long option names with the double-dash prefix. It only supports single-character options.BSD UNIX implementation of standalone
getoptcommand (which is what MacOS uses). This does not support long options either.GNU implementation of standalone
getopt. GNU getopt(3) (used by the command-line getopt(1) on Linux) supports parsing long options.
Some other answers show a solution for using the bash builtin getopts to mimic long options. That solution actually makes a short option whose character is "-". So you get "--" as the flag. Then anything following that becomes OPTARG, and you test the OPTARG with a nested case.
This is clever, but it comes with caveats:
getoptscan't enforce the opt spec. It can't return errors if the user supplies an invalid option. You have to do your own error-checking as you parse OPTARG.- OPTARG is used for the long option name, which complicates usage when your long option itself has an argument. You end up having to code that yourself as an additional case.
So while it is possible to write more code to work around the lack of support for long options, this is a lot more work and partially defeats the purpose of using a getopt parser to simplify your code.
回答2:
getopt and getopts are different beasts, and people seem to have a bit of misunderstanding of what they do. getopts is a built-in command to bash to process command-line options in a loop and assign each found option and value in turn to built-in variables, so you can further process them. getopt, however, is an external utility program, and it doesn't actually process your options for you the way that e.g. bash getopts, the Perl Getopt module or the Python optparse/argparse modules do. All that getopt does is canonicalize the options that are passed in — i.e. convert them to a more standard form, so that it's easier for a shell script to process them. For example, an application of getopt might convert the following:
myscript -ab infile.txt -ooutfile.txt
into this:
myscript -a -b -o outfile.txt infile.txt
You have to do the actual processing yourself. You don't have to use getopt at all if you make various restrictions on the way you can specify options:
- only put one option per argument;
- all options go before any positional parameters (i.e. non-option arguments);
- for options with values (e.g.
-oabove), the value has to go as a separate argument (after a space).
Why use getopt instead of getopts? The basic reason is that only GNU getopt gives you support for long-named command-line options.1 (GNU getopt is the default on Linux. Mac OS X and FreeBSD come with a basic and not-very-useful getopt, but the GNU version can be installed; see below.)
For example, here's an example of using GNU getopt, from a script of mine called javawrap:
# NOTE: This requires GNU getopt. On Mac OS X and FreeBSD, you have to install this
# separately; see below.
TEMP=`getopt -o vdm: --long verbose,debug,memory:,debugfile:,minheap:,maxheap: \
-n 'javawrap' -- "$@"`
if [ $? != 0 ] ; then echo "Terminating..." >&2 ; exit 1 ; fi
# Note the quotes around `$TEMP': they are essential!
eval set -- "$TEMP"
VERBOSE=false
DEBUG=false
MEMORY=
DEBUGFILE=
JAVA_MISC_OPT=
while true; do
case "$1" in
-v | --verbose ) VERBOSE=true; shift ;;
-d | --debug ) DEBUG=true; shift ;;
-m | --memory ) MEMORY="$2"; shift 2 ;;
--debugfile ) DEBUGFILE="$2"; shift 2 ;;
--minheap )
JAVA_MISC_OPT="$JAVA_MISC_OPT -XX:MinHeapFreeRatio=$2"; shift 2 ;;
--maxheap )
JAVA_MISC_OPT="$JAVA_MISC_OPT -XX:MaxHeapFreeRatio=$2"; shift 2 ;;
-- ) shift; break ;;
* ) break ;;
esac
done
This lets you specify options like --verbose -dm4096 --minh=20 --maxhe 40 --debugfi="/Users/John Johnson/debug.txt" or similar. The effect of the call to getopt is to canonicalize the options to --verbose -d -m 4096 --minheap 20 --maxheap 40 --debugfile "/Users/John Johnson/debug.txt" so that you can more easily process them. The quoting around "$1" and "$2" is important as it ensures that arguments with spaces in them get handled properly.
If you delete the first 9 lines (everything up through the eval set line), the code will still work! However, your code will be much pickier in what sorts of options it accepts: In particular, you'll have to specify all options in the "canonical" form described above. With the use of getopt, however, you can group single-letter options, use shorter non-ambiguous forms of long-options, use either the --file foo.txt or --file=foo.txt style, use either the -m 4096 or -m4096 style, mix options and non-options in any order, etc. getopt also outputs an error message if unrecognized or ambiguous options are found.
NOTE: There are actually two totally different versions of getopt, basic getopt and GNU getopt, with different features and different calling conventions.2 Basic getopt is quite broken: Not only does it not handle long options, it also can't even handle embedded spaces inside of arguments or empty arguments, whereas getopts does do this right. The above code will not work in basic getopt. GNU getopt is installed by default on Linux, but on Mac OS X and FreeBSD it needs to be installed separately. On Mac OS X, install MacPorts (http://www.macports.org) and then do sudo port install getopt to install GNU getopt (usually into /opt/local/bin), and make sure that /opt/local/bin is in your shell path ahead of /usr/bin. On FreeBSD, install misc/getopt.
A quick guide to modifying the example code for your own program: Of the first few lines, all is "boilerplate" that should stay the same, except the line that calls getopt. You should change the program name after -n, specify short options after -o, and long options after --long. Put a colon after options that take a value.
Finally, if you see code that has just set instead of eval set, it was written for BSD getopt. You should change it to use the eval set style, which works fine with both versions of getopt, while the plain set doesn't work right with GNU getopt.
1Actually, getopts in ksh93 supports long-named options, but this shell isn't used as often as bash. In zsh, use zparseopts to get this functionality.
2Technically, "GNU getopt" is a misnomer; this version was actually written for Linux rather than the GNU project. However, it follows all the GNU conventions, and the term "GNU getopt" is commonly used (e.g. on FreeBSD).
回答3:
The Bash builtin getopts function can be used to parse long options by putting a dash character followed by a colon into the optspec:
#!/usr/bin/env bash
optspec=":hv-:"
while getopts "$optspec" optchar; do
case "${optchar}" in
-)
case "${OPTARG}" in
loglevel)
val="${!OPTIND}"; OPTIND=$(( $OPTIND + 1 ))
echo "Parsing option: '--${OPTARG}', value: '${val}'" >&2;
;;
loglevel=*)
val=${OPTARG#*=}
opt=${OPTARG%=$val}
echo "Parsing option: '--${opt}', value: '${val}'" >&2
;;
*)
if [ "$OPTERR" = 1 ] && [ "${optspec:0:1}" != ":" ]; then
echo "Unknown option --${OPTARG}" >&2
fi
;;
esac;;
h)
echo "usage: $0 [-v] [--loglevel[=]<value>]" >&2
exit 2
;;
v)
echo "Parsing option: '-${optchar}'" >&2
;;
*)
if [ "$OPTERR" != 1 ] || [ "${optspec:0:1}" = ":" ]; then
echo "Non-option argument: '-${OPTARG}'" >&2
fi
;;
esac
done
After copying to executable file name=getopts_test.sh in the current working directory, one can produce output like
$ ./getopts_test.sh
$ ./getopts_test.sh -f
Non-option argument: '-f'
$ ./getopts_test.sh -h
usage: code/getopts_test.sh [-v] [--loglevel[=]<value>]
$ ./getopts_test.sh --help
$ ./getopts_test.sh -v
Parsing option: '-v'
$ ./getopts_test.sh --very-bad
$ ./getopts_test.sh --loglevel
Parsing option: '--loglevel', value: ''
$ ./getopts_test.sh --loglevel 11
Parsing option: '--loglevel', value: '11'
$ ./getopts_test.sh --loglevel=11
Parsing option: '--loglevel', value: '11'
Obviously getopts neither performs OPTERR checking nor option-argument parsing for the long options. The script fragment above shows how this may be done manually. The basic principle also works in the Debian Almquist shell ("dash"). Note the special case:
getopts -- "-:" ## without the option terminator "-- " bash complains about "-:"
getopts "-:" ## this works in the Debian Almquist shell ("dash")
Note that, as GreyCat from over at http://mywiki.wooledge.org/BashFAQ points out, this trick exploits a non-standard behaviour of the shell which permits the option-argument (i.e. the filename in "-f filename") to be concatenated to the option (as in "-ffilename"). The POSIX standard says there must be a space between them, which in the case of "-- longoption" would terminate the option-parsing and turn all longoptions into non-option arguments.
回答4:
The built-in getopts command is still, AFAIK, limited to single-character options only.
There is (or used to be) an external program getopt that would reorganize a set of options such that it was easier to parse. You could adapt that design to handle long options too. Example usage:
aflag=no
bflag=no
flist=""
set -- $(getopt abf: "$@")
while [ $# -gt 0 ]
do
case "$1" in
(-a) aflag=yes;;
(-b) bflag=yes;;
(-f) flist="$flist $2"; shift;;
(--) shift; break;;
(-*) echo "$0: error - unrecognized option $1" 1>&2; exit 1;;
(*) break;;
esac
shift
done
# Process remaining non-option arguments
...
You could use a similar scheme with a getoptlong command.
Note that the fundamental weakness with the external getopt program is the difficulty of handling arguments with spaces in them, and in preserving those spaces accurately. This is why the built-in getopts is superior, albeit limited by the fact it only handles single-letter options.
回答5:
Here's an example that actually uses getopt with long options:
aflag=no
bflag=no
cargument=none
# options may be followed by one colon to indicate they have a required argument
if ! options=$(getopt -o abc: -l along,blong,clong: -- "$@")
then
# something went wrong, getopt will put out an error message for us
exit 1
fi
set -- $options
while [ $# -gt 0 ]
do
case $1 in
-a|--along) aflag="yes" ;;
-b|--blong) bflag="yes" ;;
# for options with required arguments, an additional shift is required
-c|--clong) cargument="$2" ; shift;;
(--) shift; break;;
(-*) echo "$0: error - unrecognized option $1" 1>&2; exit 1;;
(*) break;;
esac
shift
done
回答6:
Long options can be parsed by the standard getopts builtin as “arguments” to the - “option”
This is portable and native POSIX shell – no external programs or bashisms are needed.
This guide implements long options as arguments to the - option, so --alpha is seen by getopts as - with argument alpha and --bravo=foo is seen as - with argument bravo=foo. The true argument can be harvested with a simple replacement: ${OPTARG#*=}.
In this example, -b (and its long form, --bravo) has a mandatory option (note the manual reconstruction of enforcing that for the long form). Non-boolean options to long arguments come after equals signs, e.g. --bravo=foo (space delimiters for long options would be hard to implement).
Because this uses getopts, this solution supports usage like cmd -ac --bravo=foo -d FILE (which has combined options -a and -c and interleaves long options with standard options) while most other answers here either struggle or fail to do that.
while getopts ab:c-: arg; do
case $arg in
a ) ARG_A=true ;;
b ) ARG_B="$OPTARG" ;;
c ) ARG_C=true ;;
- ) LONG_OPTARG="${OPTARG#*=}"
case $OPTARG in
alpha ) ARG_A=true ;;
bravo=?* ) ARG_B="$LONG_OPTARG" ;;
bravo* ) echo "No arg for --$OPTARG option" >&2; exit 2 ;;
charlie ) ARG_C=true ;;
alpha* | charlie* )
echo "No arg allowed for --$OPTARG option" >&2; exit 2 ;;
'' ) break ;; # "--" terminates argument processing
* ) echo "Illegal option --$OPTARG" >&2; exit 2 ;;
esac ;;
\? ) exit 2 ;; # getopts already reported the illegal option
esac
done
shift $((OPTIND-1)) # remove parsed options and args from $@ list
When the argument is a dash (-), it has two more components: the flag name and (optionally) its argument. I delimit these the standard way any command would, with the first equals sign (=). $LONG_OPTARG is therefore merely the content of $OPTARG without the flag name or equals sign.
The inner case implements long options manually, so it needs some housekeeping:
bravo=?matches--bravo=foobut not--bravo=(note:casestops after the first match)bravo*follows, noting the missing required argument in--bravoand--bravo=alpha* | charlie*catches arguments given to the options that don't support them''is present to support non-options that happen to start with dashes*catches all other long options and recreates the error thrown by getopts for an invalid option
You don't necessarily need all of those housekeeping items. For example, perhaps you want --bravo to have an optional argument (which -b can't support due to a limitation in getopts). Merely remove the =? and the related failure case and then call ${ARG_B:=$DEFAULT_ARG_B} the first time you use $ARG_B.
To accept long options with space-delimited arguments, you'll need a (decently safe) eval:
bravo=?* ) ARG_B="$LONG_OPTARG" ;;
bravo ) eval "ARG_B=\"\$$OPTIND\""
if [ -z "$ARG_B" ]; then
echo "No arg for --$OPTARG option" >&2; exit 2
fi
OPTIND=$((OPTIND+1)) ;;
bravo* ) echo "No arg for --$OPTARG option" >&2; exit 2 ;;
This additional clause, added directly after the = assignment version, runs an eval to interpret the value of the parameter following the option being interpreted at the time. Bash can do this more cleanly using indirect expansion, ARG_B="${!OPTIND}" and Zsh can do it with the parameter expansion P flag, ARGB="${(P)OPTIND}", but the eval is needed to be fully portable POSIX. $OPTIND is a number referring to the next shell argument, say $2 (meaning $1 is --bravo). The eval would then be interpreting ARG_B="$2" and because this is enclosed in quotes, it is safe from abuse (I couldn't find a way to trick it into doing something inappropriate).
Guaranteeing a non-empty value is nontrivial and requires actually checking it, so we have a conditional and generate a fatal error in that case. If you allow it to be empty, you'll need to conditionalize the incrementing of $OPTIND or else run into an infinite loop. [ $# -gt $OPTIND ] && OPTIND=$((OPTIND+1)) should do.
The final part of this addition clause increments $OPTIND to properly absorb the option's argument and to move on to the next option.
回答7:
Take a look at shFlags which is a portable shell library (meaning: sh, bash, dash, ksh, zsh on Linux, Solaris, etc.).
It makes adding new flags as simple as adding one line to your script, and it provides an auto generated usage function.
Here is a simple Hello, world! using shFlag:
#!/bin/sh
# source shflags from current directory
. ./shflags
# define a 'name' command-line string flag
DEFINE_string 'name' 'world' 'name to say hello to' 'n'
# parse the command-line
FLAGS "$@" || exit 1
eval set -- "${FLAGS_ARGV}"
# say hello
echo "Hello, ${FLAGS_name}!"
For OSes that have the enhanced getopt that supports long options (e.g. Linux), you can do:
$ ./hello_world.sh --name Kate
Hello, Kate!
For the rest, you must use the short option:
$ ./hello_world.sh -n Kate
Hello, Kate!
Adding a new flag is as simple as adding a new DEFINE_ call.

Of course, then you can't use long style options with one dash. And if you want to add shortened versions (e.g. --verbos instead of --verbose), then you need to add those manually.
But if you are looking to get getopts functionality along with long options, this is a simple way to do it.
I also put this snippet in a gist.
回答12:
The built-in getopts can't do this. There is an external getopt(1) program that can do this, but you only get it on Linux from the util-linux package. It comes with an example script getopt-parse.bash.
There is also a getopts_long written as a shell function.

Inventing yet another version of the wheel...
This function is a (hopefully) POSIX-compatible plain bourne shell replacement for GNU getopt. It supports short/long options which can accept mandatory/optional/no arguments, and the way in which options are specified is almost identical to GNU getopt, so conversion is trivial.
Of course this is still a sizeable chunk of code to drop into a script, but it's about half the lines of the well-known getopt_long shell function, and might be preferable in cases where you just want to replace existing GNU getopt uses.
This is pretty new code, so YMMV (and definitely please let me know if this isn't actually POSIX-compatible for any reason -- portability was the intention from the outset, but I don't have a useful POSIX test environment).
Code and example usage follows:

I only write shell scripts now and then and fall out of practice, so any feedback is appreciated.
Using the strategy proposed by @Arvid Requate, we noticed some user errors. A user who forgets to include a value will accidentally have the next option's name treated as a value:
./getopts_test.sh --loglevel= --toc=TRUE
will cause the value of "loglevel" to be seen as "--toc=TRUE". This can be avoided.
I adapted some ideas about checking user error for CLI from http://mwiki.wooledge.org/BashFAQ/035 discussion of manual parsing. I inserted error checking into handling both "-" and "--" arguments.
Then I started fiddling around with the syntax, so any errors in here are strictly my fault, not the original authors.
My approach helps users who prefer to enter long with or without the equal sign. That is, it should have same response to "--loglevel 9" as "--loglevel=9". In the --/space method, it is not possible to know for sure if the user forgets an argument, so some guessing is needed.
- if the user has the long/equal sign format (--opt=), then a space after = triggers an error because an argument was not supplied.
- if user has long/space arguments (--opt ), this script causes a fail if no argument follows (end of command) or if argument begins with dash)
In case you are starting out on this, there is an interesting difference between "--opt=value" and "--opt value" formats. With the equal sign, the command line argument is seen as "opt=value" and the work to handle that is string parsing, to separate at the "=". In contrast, with "--opt value", the name of the argument is "opt" and we have the challenge of getting the next value supplied in the command line. That's where @Arvid Requate used ${!OPTIND}, the indirect reference. I still don't understand that, well, at all, and comments in BashFAQ seem to warn against that style (http://mywiki.wooledge.org/BashFAQ/006). BTW, I don't think previous poster's comments about importance of OPTIND=$(( $OPTIND + 1 )) are correct. I mean to say, I see no harm from omitting it.
In newest version of this script, flag -v means VERBOSE printout.
Save it in a file called "cli-5.sh", make executable, and any of these will work, or fail in the desired way
./cli-5.sh -v --loglevel=44 --toc TRUE
./cli-5.sh -v --loglevel=44 --toc=TRUE
./cli-5.sh --loglevel 7
./cli-5.sh --loglevel=8
./cli-5.sh -l9
./cli-5.sh --toc FALSE --loglevel=77
./cli-5.sh --toc=FALSE --loglevel=77
./cli-5.sh -l99 -t yyy
./cli-5.sh -l 99 -t yyy
Here is example output of the error-checking on user intpu
$ ./cli-5.sh --toc --loglevel=77
ERROR: toc value must not have dash at beginning
$ ./cli-5.sh --toc= --loglevel=77
ERROR: value for toc undefined
You should consider turning on -v, because it prints out internals of OPTIND and OPTARG

Here you can find a few different approaches for complex option parsing in bash: http://mywiki.wooledge.org/ComplexOptionParsing
I did create the following one, and I think it's a good one, because it's minimal code and both long and short options work. A long option can also have multiple arguments with this approach.
#!/bin/bash
# Uses bash extensions. Not portable as written.
declare -A longoptspec
longoptspec=( [loglevel]=1 ) #use associative array to declare how many arguments a long option expects, in this case we declare that loglevel expects/has one argument, long options that aren't listed i n this way will have zero arguments by default
optspec=":h-:"
while getopts "$optspec" opt; do
while true; do
case "${opt}" in
-) #OPTARG is name-of-long-option or name-of-long-option=value
if [[ "${OPTARG}" =~ .*=.* ]] #with this --key=value format only one argument is possible
then
opt=${OPTARG/=*/}
OPTARG=${OPTARG#*=}
((OPTIND--))
else #with this --key value1 value2 format multiple arguments are possible
opt="$OPTARG"
OPTARG=(${@:OPTIND:$((longoptspec[$opt]))})
fi
((OPTIND+=longoptspec[$opt]))
continue #now that opt/OPTARG are set we can process them as if getopts would've given us long options

The accepted answer does a very nice job of pointing out all the shortcomings of bash built-in getopts. The answer ends with:
So while it is possible to write more code to work around the lack of support for long options, this is a lot more work and partially defeats the purpose of using a getopt parser to simplify your code.
And even though I agree in principle with that statement, I feel that the number of times we all implemented this feature in various scripts justifies putting a bit of effort into creating a "standardised", well tested solution.
As such, I've "upgraded" bash built in getopts by implementing getopts_long in pure bash, with no external dependencies. The usage of the function is 100% compatible with the built-in getopts.
By including getopts_long (which is hosted on GitHub at https://github.com/UmkaDK/getopts_long) in a script, the answer to the original question can be implemented as simply as:
source "${PATH_TO}/getopts_long.bash"
while getopts_long ':c: copyfile:' OPTKEY; do
case ${OPTKEY} in
'c'|'copyfile')
echo 'file supplied -- ${OPTARG}'
;;
'?')
echo "INVALID OPTION -- ${OPTARG}" >&2
exit 1
;;
':')
echo "MISSING ARGUMENT for option -- ${OPTARG}" >&2
exit 1
;;
*)
echo "Misconfigured OPTSPEC or uncaught option -- ${OPTKEY}" >&2
exit 1

esac

I wanted something without external dependencies, with strict bash support (-u), and I needed it to work on even the older bash versions. This handles various types of params:
- short bools (-h)
- short options (-i "image.jpg")
- long bools (--help)
- equals options (--file="filename.ext")
- space options (--file "filename.ext")
- concatinated bools (-hvm)
Just insert the following at the top of your script:
# Check if a list of params contains a specific param
# usage: if _param_variant "h|?|help p|path f|file long-thing t|test-thing" "file" ; then ...
# the global variable $key is updated to the long notation (last entry in the pipe delineated list, if applicable)
_param_variant() {
for param in $1 ; do
local variants=${param//\|/ }
for variant in $variants ; do
if [[ "$variant" = "$2" ]] ; then
# Update the key to match the long version
local arr=(${param//\|/ })
let last=${#arr[@]}-1
key="${arr[$last]}"
return 0

done
done

# Get input parameters in short or long notation, with no dependencies beyond bash

# param_image_lossy=true
# # Define allowed parameters
# allowed_params="h|?|help p|path f|file i|image image-lossy"
# # Get parameters from the arguments provided
# _get_params $*
#
# Parameters will be converted into safe variable names like:
# param_help,
# param_path,
# param_file,
# param_image,
# param_image_lossy
#
# Parameters without a value like "-h" or "--help" will be treated as

# Parameters can accept values in the various typical ways:
# -i "path/goes/here"
# --image "path/goes/here"

In order to stay cross-platform compatible, and avoid the reliance on external executables, I ported some code from another language.
I find it very easy to use, here is an example:
ArgParser::addArg "[h]elp" false "This list"
ArgParser::addArg "[q]uiet" false "Supress output"
ArgParser::addArg "[s]leep" 1 "Seconds to sleep"
ArgParser::addArg "v" 1 "Verbose mode"
ArgParser::parse "$@"
ArgParser::isset help && ArgParser::showArgs
ArgParser::isset "quiet" \
&& echo "Quiet!" \
|| echo "Noisy!"
local __sleep
ArgParser::tryAndGetArg sleep into __sleep \
&& echo "Sleep for $__sleep seconds" \
|| echo "No value passed for sleep"
# This way is often more convienient, but is a little slower
echo "Sleep set to: $( ArgParser::getArg sleep )"

回答25:
If all your long options have unique, and matching, first characters as the short options, so for example
./slamm --chaos 23 --plenty test -quiet
Is the same as
./slamm -c 23 -p test -q
You can use this before getopts to rewrite $args:
# change long options to short options
for arg; do
[[ "${arg:0:1}" == "-" ]] && delim="" || delim="\""
if [ "${arg:0:2}" == "--" ];
then args="${args} -${arg:2:1}"
else args="${args} ${delim}${arg}${delim}"
fi
done
# reset the incoming args
eval set -- $args
# proceed as usual
while getopts ":b:la:h" OPTION; do
.....
Thanks for mtvee for the inspiration ;-)
回答26:
if simply this is how you want to call the script
myscript.sh --input1 "ABC" --input2 "PQR" --input2 "XYZ"
then you can follow this simplest way to achieve it with the help of getopt and --longoptions
try this , hope this is useful
# Read command line options
ARGUMENT_LIST=(
"input1"
"input2"
"input3"
)
# read arguments
opts=$(getopt \
--longoptions "$(printf "%s:," "${ARGUMENT_LIST[@]}")" \
--name "$(basename "$0")" \
--options "" \
-- "$@"
)
echo $opts
eval set --$opts
while true; do
case "$1" in
--input1)
shift
empId=$1
;;
--input2)
shift
fromDate=$1
;;
--input3)
shift
toDate=$1
;;
--)
shift
break

esac

getopts "could be used" for parsing long options as long as you don't expect them to have arguments...
Here's how to:
$ cat > longopt
while getopts 'e:-:' OPT; do
case $OPT in
e) echo echo: $OPTARG;;
-) #long option
case $OPTARG in
long-option) echo long option;;
*) echo long option: $OPTARG;;
esac;;
esac
done
$ bash longopt -e asd --long-option --long1 --long2 -e test
echo: asd
long option
long option: long1
long option: long2
echo: test
If you try to use OPTIND for getting a parameter for the long option, getopts will treat it as the first no optional positional parameter and will stop parsing any other parameters. In such a case you'll be better off handling it manually with a simple case statement.
This will "always" work:
$ cat >longopt2
while (($#)); do
OPT=$1
shift
case $OPT in
--*) case ${OPT:2} in
long1) echo long1 option;;
complex) echo comples with argument $1; shift;;
esac;;
-*) case ${OPT:1} in
a) echo short option a;;
b) echo short option b with parameter $1; shift;;
esac;;
esac
done
$ bash longopt2 --complex abc -a --long -b test
comples with argument abc
short option a
short option b with parameter test
Albeit is not as flexible as getopts and you have to do much of the error checking code yourself within the case instances...
But it is an option.
回答28:
Builtin getopts only parse short options (except in ksh93),
but you can still add few lines of scripting to make getopts handles long options.
Here is a part of code found in http://www.uxora.com/unix/shell-script/22-handle-long-options-with-getopts
#== set short options ==#
SCRIPT_OPTS=':fbF:B:-:h'
#== set long options associated with short one ==#
typeset -A ARRAY_OPTS
ARRAY_OPTS=(
[foo]=f
[bar]=b
[foobar]=F
[barfoo]=B
[help]=h
[man]=h
)
#== parse options ==#
while getopts ${SCRIPT_OPTS} OPTION ; do
#== translate long options to short ==#
if [[ "x$OPTION" == "x-" ]]; then
LONG_OPTION=$OPTARG
LONG_OPTARG=$(echo $LONG_OPTION | grep "=" | cut -d'=' -f2)
LONG_OPTIND=-1
[[ "x$LONG_OPTARG" = "x" ]] && LONG_OPTIND=$OPTIND || LONG_OPTION=$(echo $OPTARG | cut -d'=' -f1)
[[ $LONG_OPTIND -ne -1 ]] && eval LONG_OPTARG="\$$LONG_OPTIND"
OPTION=${ARRAY_OPTS[$LONG_OPTION]}
[[ "x$OPTION" = "x" ]] && OPTION="?" OPTARG="-$LONG_OPTION"
if [[ $( echo "${SCRIPT_OPTS}" | grep -c "${OPTION}:" ) -eq 1 ]]; then
if [[ "x${LONG_OPTARG}" = "x" ]] || [[ "${LONG_OPTARG}" = -* ]]; then
OPTION=":" OPTARG="-$LONG_OPTION"
else
OPTARG="$LONG_OPTARG";
if [[ $LONG_OPTIND -ne -1 ]]; then
[[ $OPTIND -le $Optnum ]] && OPTIND=$(( $OPTIND+1 ))
shift $OPTIND
OPTIND=1
fi
fi
fi
fi
#== options follow by another option instead of argument ==#
if [[ "x${OPTION}" != "x:" ]] && [[ "x${OPTION}" != "x?" ]] && [[ "${OPTARG}" = -* ]]; then
OPTARG="$OPTION" OPTION=":"
fi
#== manage options ==#
case "$OPTION" in
f ) foo=1 bar=0 ;;
b ) foo=0 bar=1 ;;
B ) barfoo=${OPTARG} ;;
F ) foobar=1 && foobar_name=${OPTARG} ;;
h ) usagefull && exit 0 ;;
: ) echo "${SCRIPT_NAME}: -$OPTARG: option requires an argument" >&2 && usage >&2 && exit 99 ;;
? ) echo "${SCRIPT_NAME}: -$OPTARG: unknown option" >&2 && usage >&2 && exit 99 ;;
esac
done
shift $((${OPTIND} - 1))
Here is a test:
# Short options test
$ ./foobar_any_getopts.sh -bF "Hello world" -B 6 file1 file2
foo=0 bar=1
barfoo=6
foobar=1 foobar_name=Hello world
files=file1 file2
# Long and short options test
$ ./foobar_any_getopts.sh --bar -F Hello --barfoo 6 file1 file2
foo=0 bar=1
barfoo=6
foobar=1 foobar_name=Hello
files=file1 file2
Otherwise in recent Korn Shell ksh93, getopts can naturally parse long options and even display a man page alike. (See http://www.uxora.com/unix/shell-script/20-getopts-with-man-page-and-long-options)
回答29:
Th built-in OS X (BSD) getopt does not support long options, but the GNU version does: brew install gnu-getopt. Then, something similar to: cp /usr/local/Cellar/gnu-getopt/1.1.6/bin/getopt /usr/local/bin/gnu-getopt.
回答30:
EasyOptions handles short and long options:
## Options:
## --verbose, -v Verbose mode
## --logfile=NAME Log filename
source easyoptions || exit
if test -n "${verbose}"; then
echo "log file: ${logfile}"
echo "arguments: ${arguments[@]}"
fi
