The linux mkdir command is used to create a directory with a specified name. The user who creates the directory is required to have write permissions in the current directory, and the specified directory name cannot be an existing directory in the current directory.
1. Command format:
mkdir [option] Directory...
2. Command function:
The mkdir command can be used to create a folder or directory named DirName (specified file name) at the specified location. The user who creates a folder or directory must have write permissions on the parent folder of the folder being created. Moreover, the created folder (directory) cannot have the same name as the file name in its parent directory (that is, the parent folder), that is, there cannot be a file with the same name in the same directory (case-sensitive).
3. Command parameters:
-m, --mode=mode, set permissions
-p, --parents It can be a path name. At this time, if some directories in the path do not yet exist, after adding this option, the system will automatically create those directories that do not yet exist, that is, multiple directories can be created at one time;
-v, --verbose Create new ones each time Information is displayed in all directories
. Command example:
Example 1: Create an empty directory
mkdir test1
Output:
[root@localhost soft]# cd test [root@localhost test]# mkdir test1 [root@localhost test]# ll 总计 4drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 10-25 17:42 test1 [root@localhost test]#
Output:

Example 4: Create a new directory and all information is displayed
Command:
Output :
[root@localhost test]# mkdir -v test4 mkdir: 已创建目录 “test4” [root@localhost test]# mkdir -vp test5/test5-1 mkdir: 已创建目录 “test5” mkdir: 已创建目录 “test5/test5-1” [root@localhost test]#
mkdir -vp scf/{ lib/,bin/,doc/{info,product},logs/{info,product},service/deploy/{info,product}}
Output:
[root@localhost test]# mkdir -vp scf/{lib/,bin/,doc/{info,product},logs/{info,product},service/deploy/{info,product}} mkdir: 已创建目录 “scf” mkdir: 已创建目录 “scf/lib” mkdir: 已创建目录 “scf/bin” mkdir: 已创建目录 “scf/doc” mkdir: 已创建目录 “scf/doc/info” mkdir: 已创建目录 “scf/doc/product” mkdir: 已创建目录 “scf/logs” mkdir: 已创建目录 “scf/logs/info” mkdir: 已创建目录 “scf/logs/product” mkdir: 已创建目录 “scf/service” mkdir: 已创建目录 “scf/service/deploy” mkdir: 已创建目录 “scf/service/deploy/info” mkdir: 已创建目录 “scf/service/deploy/product” [root@localhost test]# tree scf/ scf/ |-- bin |-- doc | |-- info | `-- product |-- lib |-- logs | |-- info | `-- product `-- service `-- deploy |-- info `-- product 12 directories, 0 files [root@localhost test]#
