Filesys::Notify::Simple is a simple but unified interface to get
|
|
notifications of changes to a given filesystem path. It utilizes
|
|
inotify2 on Linux and fsevents on OS X if they're installed, with a
|
|
fallback to the full directory scan if they're not available.
|
|
|
|
There are some limitations in this module. If you don't like it, use
|
|
File::ChangeNotify.
|
|
|
|
* There is no file name based filter. Do it in your own code.
|
|
* You can not get types of events (created, updated, deleted).
|
|
* Currently wait method blocks.
|
|
|
|
In return, this module doesn't depend on any non-core modules. Platform
|
|
specific optimizations with Linux::Inotify2 and Mac::FSEvents are truely
|
|
optional.
