File::ChangeNotify(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation File::ChangeNotify(3pm) NAME
File::ChangeNotify - Watch for changes to files, cross-platform style VERSION
version 0.22 SYNOPSIS
use File::ChangeNotify; my $watcher = File::ChangeNotify->instantiate_watcher ( directories => [ '/my/path', '/my/other' ], filter => qr/.(?:pm|conf|yml)$/, ); if ( my @events = $watcher->new_events() ) { ... } # blocking while ( my @events = $watcher->wait_for_events() ) { ... } DESCRIPTION
This module provides an API for creating a File::ChangeNotify::Watcher subclass that will work on your platform. Most of the documentation for this distro is in File::ChangeNotify::Watcher. METHODS
This class provides the following methods: File::ChangeNotify->instantiate_watcher(...) This method looks at each available subclass of File::ChangeNotify::Watcher and instantiates the first one it can load, using the arguments you provided. It always tries to use the File::ChangeNotify::Watcher::Default class last, on the assumption that any other class that is available is a better option. File::ChangeNotify->usable_classes() Returns a list of all the loadable File::ChangeNotify::Watcher subclasses. BUGS
Please report any bugs or feature requests to "bug-file-changenotify@rt.cpan.org", or through the web interface at <http://rt.cpan.org>. I will be notified, and then you'll automatically be notified of progress on your bug as I make changes. DONATIONS
If you'd like to thank me for the work I've done on this module, please consider making a "donation" to me via PayPal. I spend a lot of free time creating free software, and would appreciate any support you'd care to offer. Please note that I am not suggesting that you must do this in order for me to continue working on this particular software. I will continue to do so, inasmuch as I have in the past, for as long as it interests me. Similarly, a donation made in this way will probably not make me work on this software much more, unless I get so many donations that I can consider working on free software full time, which seems unlikely at best.
