我使用过的Linux命令之file - 检测并显示文件类型

用途说明

file命令是用来检测并显示文件类型（determine file type）。

常用参数

-b 　不显示文件名称，只显示文件类型。在shell脚本中时有用。

-i     显示MIME类别。

-L 　直接显示符号连接所指向的文件的类别。

-f namefile    指定名称文件(namefile)，该文件每一行为一个文件名，file命令将按每一行的文件名辨别该文件的类型

使用示例

示例一 显示文件类型

[[email protected] ~]# file install.log
install.log: UTF-8 Unicode text
[[email protected] ~]# file -b install.log      <== 不显示文件名称
UTF-8 Unicode text
[[email protected] ~]# file -i install.log      <== 显示MIME类别。
install.log: text/plain; charset=utf-8
[[email protected] ~]# file -b -i install.log
text/plain; charset=utf-8
[[email protected] ~]#

示例二 显示符号链接的文件类型

[[email protected] ~]# ls -l /var/mail
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 08-13 00:11 /var/mail -> spool/mail

[[email protected] ~]# file /var/mail
/var/mail: symbolic link to `spool/mail‘
[[email protected] ~]# file -L /var/mail
/var/mail: directory
[[email protected] ~]# file /var/spool/mail
/var/spool/mail: directory
[[email protected] ~]# file -L /var/spool/mail
/var/spool/mail: directory
[[email protected] ~]#

注：使用file命令显示出来的文件类型有些情况下不一定太准确，如上面黑体显示的.vox文件格式，应该是Dialogic VOX File格式的。

问题思考

1. 怎样自定义某种文件类型？
