bash - mv brace expansion with globbing in script

Question

I'm trying to move photos to a different directory. It works great when I run mv from the command line (in bash and zsh):

mv './DSC_{2385..2387}.NEF*' ./new/STACK_2385-2387

I wrote this bash script that moves a series of photos to a different directory.

But not if I run it from a script:

#/bin/bash
set -x
read START
read END
PREFIX="STACK"
DIRNAME=$PREFIX\_$START-$END
mkdir ./new/$DIRNAME
mv ./DSC_{$START..$END}.NEF* ./new/$DIRNAME

.

$./script.sh
mv ./DSC_{$START..$END}.NEF* ./new/$DIRNAME
+ mkdir ./new/STACK_2385-2387
+ mv './DSC_{2385..2387}.NEF*' ./new/STACK_2385-2387
mv: cannot stat './DSC_{2385..2387}.NEF*': No such file or directory

./new/STACK_2385-2387 is being created. The relevant *.NEF raws and *.NEF.xmp sidecar files also exist, including 2385, 2386, and 2387, so it's not an issue there.

Answer 1

eval如本例所示，您只能使用 evil 进行变量大括号扩展

$ a=1; b=10; eval echo {$a..$b}
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

所以你需要将mv命令更改为

$ eval mv ./DSC_{$START..$END}.NEF* ./new/"$DIRNAME"

也许双引号变量也是如此。
