如何在期望中转义方括号?

How to escape square brackets in expect?

我无法在 expect 脚本中转义方括号,示例如下,

我有一个 question.sh 脚本如下,

#!/bin/bash
echo "Would you like to specify inputs and execute the script? [Y/n]"
read $REPLY

echo "Deleted Item with ID: 50 and do cleanup? [Y/n]"
read $REPLY

echo "Deleted Item with ID: 51 and do cleanup? [Y/n]"
read $REPLY

echo "Deleted Item with ID: 52 and do cleanup? [Y/n]"
read $REPLY

对于上面的 question.sh 我有下面的 answer.exp,并用 'expect answer.exp 51' 命令执行相同的命令,

#!/usr/bin/expect -f

set timeout -1

spawn ./question.sh

set item "Deleted Item with ID: "
append item [lindex $argv 0]
append item " and do cleanup? \[Y/n\]"

expect "Would you like to specify inputs and execute the script? \[Y/n\]"
send -- "Y\r"

expect {

      $item {
            send "Y\r"
            exp_continue
      }
      " and do cleanup? \[Y/n\]" {
            send "n\r"
            exp_continue
      }
}

每当我使用方括号时,expect 都不匹配并且不会发送回答案 (Y/N)。

同样,当我从问题中删除方括号并且答案脚本正常工作时,更改后的问题和答案脚本如下。

question.sh:

 #!/bin/bash
echo "Would you like to specify inputs and execute the script? Y/n"
read $REPLY

echo "Deleted Item with ID: 50 and do cleanup? Y/n"
read $REPLY

echo "Deleted Item with ID: 51 and do cleanup? Y/n"
read $REPLY

echo "Deleted Item with ID: 52 and do cleanup? Y/n"
read $REPLY

answer.exp:

#!/usr/bin/expect -f

set timeout -1

spawn ./question.sh

set item "Deleted Item with ID: "
append item [lindex $argv 0]
append item " and do cleanup? Y/n"

expect "Would you like to specify inputs and execute the script? Y/n"
send -- "Y\r"

expect {

      $item {
            send "Y\r"
            exp_continue
      }
      " and do cleanup? Y/n" {
            send "n\r"
            exp_continue
      }
}

expect 命令默认匹配 tcl string match style wildcard patterns,因此 [Y/n] 试图匹配字符 Y、正斜杠或 n 之一。

解决方案:

  1. 添加更多反斜杠:
append item " and do cleanup? \\[Y/n\\]"

所以变成了\[Y/N\].

  1. 改用大括号:
append item { and do cleanup? \[Y/n\]}

防止替换反斜杠。

  1. 通过在每个模式前使用 -ex 选项告诉 expect 进行精确匹配:
#!/usr/bin/expect -f

set timeout -1

spawn ./question.sh

set item "Deleted Item with ID: "
append item [lindex $argv 0]
append item " and do cleanup? \[Y/n\]"

expect -ex "Would you like to specify inputs and execute the script? \[Y/n\]"
send -- "Y\r"

expect {

      -ex $item {
            send "Y\r"
            exp_continue
      }
      -ex " and do cleanup? \[Y/n\]" {
            send "n\r"
            exp_continue
      }
}
