模拟mv命令的动作

我正在移动一些文件，并且我想确保mv在继续运行之前输入的命令是正确的。

如果使用apt-get，则可以使用该-s标志执行实际上可以执行任何操作的模拟。

是否mv具有类似的功能，可以模拟文件的移动，但实际上不执行任何操作？

这个脚本应该可以解决问题。它也可以处理多个源文件/目录。以与mv- 相同的方式使用它mvsim source... dest。请注意，它不注意选项，也不过滤掉它们（仅将它们视为文件名），并且可能不适用于符号链接。

#!/bin/bash

if [ $# -lt 2 ]; then
    echo "Too few arguments given; at least 2 arguments are needed."
    exit 1
fi

lastArg="${@:$#}"

i=1
for param in "$@"; do
    if [ ! -e "$param" -a $i -lt $# ]; then
        echo "Error: $param does not exist."
        exit 1
    elif [ "$param" = "$lastArg" -a $i -lt $# ]; then
        echo "Error: $param is the same file/directory as the destination."
        exit 1
    fi
    ((i++))
done

if [ $# -eq 2 ]; then # special case for 2 arguments to make output look better
    if [ -d "$1" ]; then
        if [ -d "$2" ]; then
            echo "Moves directory $1 (and anything inside it) into directory $2"
            exit 0
        elif [ ! -e "$2" ]; then
            echo "Renames directory $1 to $2"
            exit 0
        else
            echo "Error: $2 is not a directory; mv cannot overwrite a non-directory with a directory."
            exit 1
        fi
    else
        if [ -d "$2" ]; then
            echo "Moves file $1 into directory $2"
        elif [ -e "$2" ]; then
            echo "Renames file $1 to $2, replacing file $2"
        else
            echo "Renames file $1 to $2"
        fi
        exit 0
    fi
elif [ ! -e "$lastArg" ]; then
    echo "Error: $lastArg does not exist."
    exit 1
elif [ ! -d "$lastArg" ]; then
    echo "Error: $lastArg is not a directory; mv cannot merge multiple files into one."
    exit 1
fi

argsLeft=$#
echo "Moves..."
for param in  "$@"; do
    if [ $argsLeft -eq 1 ]; then
        echo "...Into the directory $param" # has to be a directory because -f $lastArg was dealt with earlier
        exit 0
    fi
    if [ -d "$param" ]; then
        if [ ! -d "$lastArg" ]; then
            echo "Error: $lastArg is not a directory; mv cannot overwrite a non-directory with a directory."
            exit 1
        fi
        if [ $argsLeft -eq $# ]; then
            echo "The directory ${param} (and anything inside it)..."
        else
            echo "And the directory ${param} (and anything inside it)..."
        fi
    else
        if [ $argsLeft -eq $# ]; then
            echo "The file ${param}..."
        else
            echo "And the file ${param}..."
        fi
    fi
    ((argsLeft--))
done

一些例子：

$ ls
dir1  dir2  file1  file2  file3  mvsim
$ ./mvsim file1 file2
Renames file file1 to file2, replacing file file2
$ ./mvsim file1 newfile
Renames file file1 to newfile
$ ./mvsim file1 dir1
Moves file file1 into the directory dir1
$ ./mvsim file1 file2 file3 dir1
Moves...
The file file1...
And the file file2...
And the file file3...
...Into the directory dir1
$ ./mvsim file1 file2 dir1 dir2
Moves...
The file file1...
And the file file2...
And the directory dir1 (and anything inside it)...
...Into the directory dir2
$ ./mvsim file1 file2 file3 # error - file3 isn't a directory
Error: file3 is not a directory; mv cannot merge multiple files into one.
$ ./mvsim -f -i file1 dir1 # options aren't parsed or filtered out
Error: -f does not exist.

以下功能用于详细检查mv语法。请注意，它仅适用于2个参数SOURCE和DESTINATION，并且不检查-t标志。

该函数将放置在中~/.bashrc。要立即使用它，请打开新终端或运行source ~/.bashrc

mv_check()
{
    # Function for checking syntax of mv command 
    # sort of verbose dry run
    # NOTE !!! this doesn't support the -t flag
    # maybe it will in future (?)

    # check number of arguments  
    if [ $# -ne 2   ]; then
        echo "<<< ERROR: must have 2 arguments , but $# given "
        return 1
    fi

    # check if source item exist
    if ! readlink -e "$1" > /dev/null 
    then
        echo "<<< ERROR: " "$item" " doesn't exist"
        return 1
    fi

    # check where file goes

    if [ -d "$2"  ]
    then
        echo "Moving " "$1" " into " "$2" " directory"
    else
        echo "Renaming "  "$1" " to " "$2" 
    fi

}

这是一些测试运行：

$> mv_check  TEST_FILE1  bin/python

$> mv_check  TEST_FILE1                                                                                                  
<<< ERROR: must have 2 arguments , but 1 given 

github上有一个程序，也许叫做“ mayk” 。

根据他们的项目描述， maybe

...允许您运行命令并查看其对文件的作用，而无需实际执行！在查看了列出的操作之后，您可以决定是否确实希望发生这些事情。

因此，它不仅向您显示其他程序还将对您的文件执行什么操作mv。

maybe需要Python才能运行，但这应该不是问题。使用Python的软件包管理器pip可以轻松安装或构建它。

程序的安装过程和用法均在项目的主页上进行了描述。不幸的是，目前我无法访问Linux系统，因此无法为您提供有关程序使用情况的任何示例。
