Hello everyone!
How can I detect if a folder have changed (sync logic) than run a script if it's true? I found this script over the net, but I think it's such complicated for that simple thing...
#!/bin/bash
############### detectdir.sh by Jagbir Singh ################# # # script to detect changes in directory. # ###############################################################
# directory to watch DIR="/var/www/vhosts"
# store current statistics of dir OLD=`stat -t $DIR`
while true do
# take a new snapshot of stats NEW=`stat -t $DIR`
# compare it with old if [ "$NEW" != "$OLD" ]; then
echo "changed!" ## you may want to comment this
# take current listing of dir in a file. domains may be added or removed. ls $DIR --file-type | grep "/" | sed 's////' > /tmp/dir.list
# open file and you can now process entries in it exec 10 let count=0
while read LINE <&10; do
# currently printed on screen, can supply this as arg to rSync, discussed later echo $LINE/httpdocs/ echo ((count++)) done
# take snapshot again and store it in both old and new vars NEW=`stat -t $DIR` OLD=$NEW exec 10>&- fi
# i'm using 3 secs calm time, you should update this as per your environment sleep 3 done
