In computing, redirection is a form of interprocess communication, and is a function common to most command-line interpreters, including the various Unix shells that can redirect standard streams to user-specified locations.

在计算机领域，重定向是大多数命令行解释器所具有的功能，包括各种可以将标准流重定向用户规定目的地的 Unix shells。

1. Standard I/O streams

In Unix shells derived from the original Bourne shell, the first two actions can be further modified by placing a number (the file descriptor) immediately before the character; this will affect which stream is used for the redirection.

源自 Bourne shell 的许多 Unix shell，可以将一个数字 (文件描述符) 放在重定向符号前，这样可以影响用于重定向的数据流。

The Unix standard I/O streams are:

File Descriptor	Name	Description	操作符
0	stdin	standard input (标准输入)	<, <<
1	stdout	standard output (标准输出)	>, >>, 1>, 1>>
2	stderr	standard error (标准错误输出)	2>, 2>>

**文件描述符 (File Descriptor) 是进程对其所打开文件的索引，形式上是个非负整数。**Linux 会为每个运行的进程都分配这三个文件。

stdin 默认输入源是 Keyboard，stdout 和 stderr 默认输出目的地是 Text Terminal。

默认情况下，command > file 将 stdout 重定向到 file，command < file 将 stdin 重定向到 file。

使用 > 或 >> 时，默认为 stdout (标准输出) 重定向，> 就是 1>，1 与 > 之间不能有空格。File Descriptor 0, 1, 2 与它后面的操作符 >, >>, <, << 是一个整体。

ls -a -l > yongqiang.txt 等同于 ls -a -l 1> yongqiang.txt。

2. Redirecting to and from the standard file handles (标准文件句柄的重定向)

2.1. command > file

将 command 命令的 stdout 重定向到文件 file 中。如果 file 已经存在，则清空原有文件。

command > file executes command, placing the output in file, as opposed to displaying it at the terminal, which is the usual destination for standard output. This will clobber any existing data in file.
command > file 命令执行 command，然后将 stdout 的内容存入 file。注意任何 file 内的已经存在的内容将被清空，然后写入新内容。

clobber [ˈklɒbə(r)]：vt. 使受到 (严重经济损失)，狠揍，猛打，惩罚，彻底战胜 (或击败)，狠击，极大地打击 n. 衣服，随身物品

echo "yongqiangcheng" > file.txt 命令清空文件的内容，然后将 "yongqiangcheng" 写入 file.txt。

(base) yongqiang@yongqiang:~/software$ echo `date` > yongqiang.txt
(base) yongqiang@yongqiang:~/software$ cat yongqiang.txt
Sun Jun 16 20:33:49 CST 2024
(base) yongqiang@yongqiang:~/software$

Note: 使用的是反引号 `, 而不是单引号 '。

2.2. command >> file

将 command 命令的 stdout 重定向到文件 file 中。如果 file 已经存在，则把信息加在原有文件后面。

To append output to the end of the file, rather than clobbering it, the >> operator is used: command1 >> file.
command1 >> file 将 stdout 追加到文件末尾，使用 >> 操作符。

echo "yongqiangcheng" > file.txt 命令将 "yongqiangcheng" 追加到 file.txt 的后面。

2.3. command 2> file

For example, command 2> file executes command, directing the standard error stream to file.

执行 command，然后将标准错误 stderr 输出重定向到文件 file，清空文件中已有内容，然后写入新内容。

2.4. command 2>> file

执行 command，然后将标准错误 stderr 输出重定向追加到文件 file 末尾。

2.5. command < file

本来需要从键盘获取输入的命令会转移到文件读取内容。

Using command < file executes command, with file as the source of input, as opposed to the keyboard, which is the usual source for standard input.

执行 command，使用 file 作为用来替代键盘的输入源。

2.6. command < infile > outfile

command < infile > outfile combines the two capabilities: command reads from infile and writes to outfile.

同时替换输入和输出，执行 command，从文件 infile 读取内容，然后将 stdout 写入到 outfile 中。

2.7. command > file 2>&1

To write both stderr and stdout to file, the order should be reversed. stdout would first be redirected to the file, then stderr would additionally be redirected to the stdout handle that has already been changed to point at the file: command > file 2>&1.

首先将 stdout 重定向到 file，然后 stderr 将重定向到已经更改为指向 file 的 stdout 句柄。

In shells derived from csh (the C shell), the syntax instead appends the & (ampersand) character to the redirect characters, thus achieving a similar result. The reason for this is to distinguish between a file named 1 and stdout, i.e. cat file 2>1 vs cat file 2>&1. In the first case, stderr is redirected to a file named 1 and in the second, stderr is redirected to stdout.
2>&1 将 stderr 重定向到 stdout。2 和 1 分别是 stderr 和 stdout 的文件描述符。**为了区别普通文件，当将 stderr 和 stdout 作为重定向目的地时，需要在文件描述符前加上 &。**为了将 stdout 与文件名为 1 的文件区分开来。例如对于 cat file 2>1 和 cat file 2>&1，前者会将 stderr 重定向至叫做 1 的文件，后者则将其重定向至 stdout 。

A simplified but non-POSIX conforming form of the command, command > file 2>&1 is: command &>file or command >&file.

2.8. command 2>&1 > file

It is possible to use 2>&1 before > but the result is commonly misunderstood. The rule is that any redirection sets the handle to the output stream independently. So 2>&1 sets handle 2 to whatever handle 1 points to, which at that point usually is stdout. Then > redirects handle 1 to something else, e.g. a file, but it does not change handle 2, which still points to stdout.

可以将 2>&1 放置在 > 前，但是这样并不能达到我们想要的效果。

In the following example, stdout is written to file, but stderr is redirected from stderr to stdout, i.e. sent to the screen: command 2>&1 > file.
