[Linux Basics] File and Directory Management

Overview


 

The management of files or directories mainly includes creation, deletion, query, and movement. mkdir, rm, mv

File query, mainly using the powerful find command. 

Create and delete


  •  Create a directory: mkdir
  • remove: rm
  • Remove non-empty directories: rm -rf
  • move/rename: mv
  • copy: cp
  • Copy directory: cp -r 

Directory switching


  • Find the file directory location: cd
  • Change to the last working directory: cd -
  • Change to home directory: cd or cd ~
  • Show current path: pwd 

list directory entries


  • Display the files of the current project: ls
  • Sorted by time, displayed as a list: ls -lrt
  • Add the id number in front of each file item: ls | cat -n

Generally, we will add aliases in .bashrc to simplify the use of commands. 

Find directories and files


  •  Find a file or directory: find ./ -name "test*"

find is a real-time search. If you need a faster query, you can try locate; locate will build an index database for the file system. If there is a file update, you need to periodically execute the update command to update the index database:

  • locate string
  • updatedb 

View the contents of a file


View file: cat vi head tail more

  • Display the line number at the same time: cat -n
  • Display list contents by page: ls -al | more
  • View the first 10 lines of the file: head -10 test.cc
  • View the last 5 lines of the file: tail -5 test.cc
  • See the difference between the two files: diff test.cc test_old.cc
  • Dynamically display the latest information in the text: tail -f desing.log    

Find the contents of a file


 Use grep egrep to query the contents of the file, the usage of grep is described in a separate article

grep 'main' test.cc 

Modifying file and directory permissions


  •  Modify the owner of the file: chown
  • Change the permissions of read, write, execute, etc. of the file: chmod
  • Recursive subdirectory modification: chown -R / chmod -R
  • Increase the executable permission of the file: chmod a+x test 

Add aliases to files, soft links/hard links


  • Hard link: ln test hlink
  • 软连接: ln -s test slink

管道


 

  • 批处理命令连接执行,管道使用 |
  • 串联使用: 分号 ;
  • 前面成功,则执行后面一条,否则不执行: &&
  • 前面失败,则执行后面一条: ||

重定向


  • 将标准输出和错误输出到一个文件:    ls test* > list 2>&1   等价于   ls test* &> list
  • 清空文件: > test
  • 重定向到文件末尾: echo “Hello world”  >> test
