linux命令详解之ls命令

ls命令概述ls命令用于显示文件目录列表，和Windows系统下DOS命令dir类似。当执行ls命令时，默认显示的只有非隐藏文件的文件名、以文件名进行排序及文件名代表的颜色显示。当不加参数时，默认列出当前目录的列表信息。ls命令使用频率非常高，参数也非常多，多达四五十个，本文只介绍一部分常用的参数，其他参数可以通过man命令查看帮助手册。说明：在linux下，文件名以点.开头表示该文件为隐藏文件，

ls命令概述

ls命令用于显示文件目录列表，和Windows系统下DOS命令dir类似。当执行ls命令时，默认显示的只有非隐藏文件的文件名、以文件名进行排序及文件名代表的颜色显示。当不加参数时，默认列出当前目录的列表信息。ls命令使用频率非常高，参数也非常多，多达四五十个，本文只介绍一部分常用的参数，其他参数可以通过man命令查看帮助手册。

说明：在linux下，文件名以点.开头表示该文件为隐藏文件，如.bashrc。

ls命令语法

ls [选项] [目录或文件名]
参数：
-a：--all的缩写，显示所有的文件，包括隐藏文件(以.开头的文件)，参考示例1。(常用)
-A：--almost-all的缩写，显示所有的文件，包括隐藏文件，但不包括表示当前目录.和上级目录..这两个文件，参考示例2。
-c：和-lt一起使用：显示列表并且以ctime(文件状态最后改变时间)排序。和-l一起使用：显示ctime并且以文件名排序。其他情况，以ctime排序。参考示例3。
-d：--directory的缩写，仅列出目录本身，而不是列出目录里的内容列表，参考示例4。(常用)
-f：直接列出结果，而不进行排序(ls默认会以文件名排序)
--color[=WHEN]：是否根据文件类型显示颜色，WHEN可以为never、always或者auto
--full-time：以完整的实际模式显示(包含年月日时分)，类似与ls -l --time-style=full-iso，参考示例5。
-g：列表显示结果，和-l类似，但是不显示文件所属者。
-h：将文件内容大小以GB、KB等易读的方式显示，参考示例6。
-i：结合-l参数，列出每个文件的inode，参考示例7。
-l：列出长数据串，显示出文件的属性与权限等数据信息(常用)
-n：和-l类似，只是显示的所属用户和组不是名称而是对应的id，参考示例8。
-r：--reverse，将排序结果以倒序方式显示，参考示例9。
-S：以文件大小排序，参考示例9。
-t：以修改时间排序
--help：显示帮助信息

ls命令示例

示例1：列出所有文件(注意和-A参数的区别，结果里面包括表示当前目录.和上级目录..这两个文件)。

[root@localhost ~]# ls -a    #列出所有文件
.  ..  .bash_history  .bash_logout  .bash_profile  .bashrc   install.log  install.log.syslog
[root@localhost ~]# ls --all
.  ..  .bash_history  .bash_logout  .bash_profile  .bashrc   install.log  install.log.syslog

示例2：列出所有的文件，但不包括表示当前目录.和上级目录..这两个文件。

[root@localhost ~]# ls -A
.bash_history  .bash_logout  .bash_profile  .bashrc  install.log  install.log.syslog  
[root@localhost ~]# ls --almost-all
.bash_history  .bash_logout  .bash_profile  .bashrc  install.log  install.log.syslog

示例3：显示列表并且以ctime排序

[root@localhost /]# ls -clt   #和 -lt参数一起使用，以时间排序
