|
|
|

|
|
|
+> Waits for changes to one or more files.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+- Run a command when a file changes:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+`while inotifywait {{path/to/file}}; do {{command}}; done`
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+- Be quiet about watching for changes:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+`while inotifywait --quiet {{path/to/file}}; do {{command}}; done`
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+- Watch a directory recursively for changes:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+`while inotifywait --recursive {{path/to/directory}}; do {{command}}; done`
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+- Exclude files matching a regular expression:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+`while inotifywait --recursive {{path/to/directory}} --exlude '{{regex}}'; do {{command}}; done`
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+- Wait at most 30 seconds:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+`while inotifywait --timeout {{30}} {{path/to/file}}; do {{command}}; done`
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+- Only watch for file modification events:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+`while inotifywait --event {{modify}} {{path/to/file}}; do {{command}}; done`
