kanshi is a simple tool like Monit for monitoring file timestamp.
Japanese kanshi(็ฃ่ฆ)
means monitoring
.
use kanshi_rs::kanshi::Kanshi;
use kanshi_rs::script;
fn main() {
let kanshi = Kanshi::new("/your/target/monitored/file.pid");
kanshi.every(3).lazy_exec(|| script("/your/execution/command"));
}
if timestamp of target file is changed, execute some script.
In the above program, the target file is monitored every 3 seconds.
And then, you can get log in /var/log/kanshi.log
like the following.
$ tail -f /var/log/kanshi.log
