我使用过的Linux命令之type - 显示命令的类型

用途说明

type命令用来显示指定命令的类型。一个命令的类型可以是如下之一

alias 别名
keyword 关键字，Shell保留字
function 函数，Shell函数
builtin 内建命令，Shell内建命令
file 文件，磁盘文件，外部命令
unfound 没有找到

它是Linux系统的一种自省机制，知道了是那种类型，我们就可以针对性的获取帮助。比如内建命令可以用help命令来获取帮助，外部命令用man或者info来获取帮助。

常用参数

type命令的基本使用方式就是直接跟上命令名字。

type -a可以显示所有可能的类型，比如有些命令如pwd是shell内建命令，也可以是外部命令。

type -p只返回外部命令的信息，相当于which命令。

type -f只返回shell函数的信息。

type -t 只返回指定类型的信息。

使用示例

示例一 type自己是什么类型的命令

[root@new55 ~]# type -a type
type is a shell builtin
[root@new55 ~]# help type
type: type [-afptP] name [name ...]
    For each NAME, indicate how it would be interpreted if used as a
    command name.

    If the -t option is used, `type' outputs a single word which is one of
    `alias', `keyword', `function', `builtin', `file' or `', if NAME is an
    alias, shell reserved word, shell function, shell builtin, disk file,
    or unfound, respectively.

    If the -p flag is used, `type' either returns the name of the disk
    file that would be executed, or nothing if `type -t NAME' would not
    return `file'.

    If the -a flag is used, `type' displays all of the places that contain
    an executable named `file'. This includes aliases, builtins, and
    functions, if and only if the -p flag is not also used.

    The -f flag suppresses shell function lookup.

    The -P flag forces a PATH search for each NAME, even if it is an alias,
    builtin, or function, and returns the name of the disk file that would
    be executed.
typeset: typeset [-afFirtx] [-p] name[=value] ...
    Obsolete. See `declare'.
