关联数组名称替换和复制bash

Question

我有一个bash脚本，用于检查输入日期（$ 1）是否落入日期范围/范围内。用户输入日期和（a或b，即$ 2）。

#!/usr/bin/env bash 

today=$(date +"%Y%M%d") 
declare -A dict=$2_range 
a_range=(["20140602"]="20151222" ["20170201"]="$today") 
b_range=(["20140602"]="20150130") 

for key in ${!dict[@]}; do 
    if [[ $1 -le ${dict[$key]} ]] && [[ $1 -ge $key ]]; then 
    echo $1 falls in the range of $2 
    fi 
done 

我不知道如何将关联数组复制到dict变量。 样本用法

$ ./script.sh 20170707 a 

    20170707 falls in the range of a

您根本不需要复制任何东西;你只需要一个别名。

#!/usr/bin/env bash 

today=$(date +"%Y%M%d") 

# you need declare -A **before** data is given. 
# previously, these were sparse indexed arrays, not associative arrays at all. 
declare -A a_range=(["20140602"]="20151222" ["20170201"]="$today") 
declare -A b_range=(["20140602"]="20150130") 

# declare -n makes dict a reference to (not a copy of) your named range. 
declare -n dict="$2_range" 

for key in "${!dict[@]}"; do 
    if (($1 <= ${dict[$key]})) && (($1 >= key)); then 
    echo "$1 falls in the range of $2" 
    fi 
done 

declare -n是在bash（4.3+）的ksh93的特征nameref的版本;见http://wiki.bash-hackers.org/commands/builtin/declare#nameref
