如何用C实现自己的基本unix shell ?

时间:2020-12-23 20:46:43

I'm a newbie to process and thread management. My Shell should understand PATH environment variable. It can be set and modified. It runs in two ways -interactive & batch mode. Shell is capable of taking more than one job like ls;ps;wc file;cal. I want to get my hands dirty on signals too. So I should handle ^K , ^c as well.

我是处理和线程管理的新手。我的Shell应该理解路径环境变量。它可以被设置和修改。它以两种方式运行——交互和批处理模式。Shell可以执行多个任务,如ls;ps;wc文件;cal。我也想把我的手弄脏信号。所以我应该处理^ K、c ^。

I know I will have to use execs, forks and pipes but just can't get started.

我知道我将不得不使用高级管理人员、餐叉和管道,但就是不能开始。

All the unix shells are open-source - so a good place to start may be to read the code.

所有的unix shell都是开源的——所以最好的开始是阅读代码。

If you're looking for a good starter article on the subject try Writing Your Own Shell from the Linux Gazette.

如果你想找一篇关于这个主题的好文章,试着在Linux公报上写你自己的Shell。

Another good starting point is to take a look at the source code of mini-shell just because its one of the smallest to get your head round.

另一个好的起点是看一下mini-shell的源代码,因为它是最小的代码之一。

Your main loop is:

你的主循环:

  • read a line (use fgets(3) for a simple shell, readline(3) for a fancy one)
  • 读一行(使用fgets(3)为一个简单的shell, readline(3)为一个花哨的)
  • parse the command
  • 解析命令
  • fork and execute the pipelines
  • 分叉并执行管道

To parse the command, there are two common choices. Write a recursive descent parser or use yacc(1) to generate one. It's a lot easier to bang out an initial parser using yacc, but you can totally get stuck debugging it and it really wants to be context-free. I prefer recursive descent but just about everyone else in the world prefers using yacc. (Technically, bison.) If the shell is really really simple, like a homework shell, yacc may be overkill.

要解析该命令,有两个常见的选项。编写递归下降解析器或使用yacc(1)生成一个递归下降解析器。使用yacc进行初始解析器会更容易,但是您完全可以调试它,而且它真的想要上下文无关。我更喜欢递归的血统,但是世界上其他的人都喜欢使用yacc。(从技术上讲,野牛。)如果shell真的很简单,比如一个家庭作业shell, yacc可能有点过头了。

To do the lexical analysis you can also roll your own or use flex.

要进行词法分析,您还可以卷自己的或使用flex。

You won't need to use any threads.

您不需要使用任何线程。

Many of the Unix books that describe the main system calls also implement a shell to illustrate how and why you might use the various calls. Stevens and Rochkind are two such books:

描述主系统调用的许多Unix书籍还实现了一个shell,以说明如何以及为什么使用各种调用。Stevens和Rochkind是两本这样的书:
