This article will explain in detail about the use of linux's mktemp command to create temporary files. The editor thinks it is very practical, so I share it for you as a reference. I hope you can get something after reading this article.

Mktemp is used to create staging files, and the temporary files that are created are unique for use by shell.

By default, mktemp creates a temporary file in the local current directory. When you create a temporary file, you only need to create a template file, which can contain any file name, and you can add n Xs at the end of the file as needed.

Syntax format: mktemp [parameters] [file]

Common parameters:

-Q if an error occurs during execution, no information will be displayed-u staging files will be deleted before the end of mktemp

Reference example:

To generate a temporary file, the file name parameter should be given in the form of "file name .XXXX":

[root@linuxcool ~] # mktemp tmp.xxxx

Generate a temporary directory:

[root@linuxcool ~] # mktemp-d

Generate temporary files in the specified directory:

[root@linuxcool] # mktemp-d-tmpdir=/home abc.XXX

Customize the file template and generate it in the system directory:

[root@linuxcool] # mktemp-t abc.XXXXXX

Customize the file template and generate it in the system directory. If an error occurs during execution, no information will be displayed:

[root@linuxcool] # mktemp-t-Q abc.XXXXXX about using the mktemp command of linux to create temporary files is shared here. I hope the above content can be helpful to you and learn more knowledge. If you think the article is good, you can share it for more people to see.
