使用“plocate”时排除目录？

Question

因此，在 Linux Mint 上多次使用locate命令后，我遇到了每个查询都在 /timeshift/ 目录中返回一行又一行结果的问题 - Linux Mint 使用该目录作为操作系统保存点。

如果我使用，比如说，locate anaconda activate.sh我可能会得到的是：

/home/user/.anaconda3/lib/python3.9/site-packages/spyder/plugins/ipythonconsole/scripts
/conda-activate.sh
/home/user/.anaconda3/pkgs/conda-4.12.0-py39h06a4308_0/info/test/tests/test-recipes/activate_deactivate_package/src/etc/conda/activate.d/activate.sh

只有前三个结果是相关的，那么如何排除目录呢？

Answer 1

使用 grep 手动排除目录

您可以使用 -v 选项让 grep 输出与提供的正则表达式不匹配的所有元素，如下所示：

locate anaconda activate.sh | grep -v "/timeshift/"

这将仅打印不包含字符串的路径/timeshift/

永久排除目录

由于时移目录的问题经常重复出现，因此您可能希望将其从所有 plocate 查询中永久排除。

根据updatedb文档，您可以添加/timeshift到. 运行后，所有查询现在都应排除该目录。PRUNEPATHS=/etc/updatedb.confupdatedbplocate/timeshift
