简单了解Python下用于监视文件系统的pyinotify包
什么是inotify:
- Inotify是一个事件驱动的通知机制,Inotify 提供一个简单的API,使用最小的文件描述符,并且允许细粒度监控。与 inotify 的通信是通过系统调用实现。可用的函数如下所示:
- inotify_init 是用于创建一个inotify实例的系统调用,并返回一个指向该实例的文件描述符。
- inotify_init1 与inotify_init相似,并带有附加标志。如果这些附加标志没有指定,将采用与inotify_init相同的值。
- inotify_add_watch 增加对文件或者目录的监控,并指定需要监控哪些事件。标志用于控制是否将事件添加到已有的监控中,是否只有路径代表一个目录才进行监控,是否要追踪符号链接,是否进行一次性监控,当首次事件出现后就停止监控。
- inotify_rm_watch 从监控列表中移出监控项目。
- read 读取包含一个或者多个事件信息的缓存。
- close 关闭文件描述符,并且移除所有在该描述符上的所有监控。当关于某实例的所有文件描述符都关闭时,资源和下层对象都将释放,以供内核再次使用。
因此,典型的监控程序需要进行如下操作:
- 使用 inotify_init 打开一个文件描述符
- 添加一个或者多个监控
- 等待事件
- 处理事件,然后返回并等待更多事件
- 当监控不再活动时,或者接到某个信号之后,关闭文件描述符,清空,然后退出。
pyinotify包的安装
git clone https://github.com/seb-m/pyinotify.git cd pyinotify/ python setup.py install
Inotify 可以监视的文件系统事件包括:
IN_ACCESS,即文件被访问
IN_MODIFY,文件被write
IN_ATTRIB,文件属性被修改,如chmod、chown、touch等
IN_CLOSE_WRITE,可写文件被close
IN_CLOSE_NOWRITE,不可写文件被close
IN_OPEN,文件被open
IN_MOVED_FROM,文件被移走,如mv
IN_MOVED_TO,文件被移来,如mv、cp
IN_CREATE,创建新文件
IN_DELETE,文件被删除,如rm
IN_DELETE_SELF,自删除,即一个可执行文件在执行时删除自己
IN_MOVE_SELF,自移动,即一个可执行文件在执行时移动自己
IN_UNMOUNT,宿主文件系统被umount
IN_CLOSE,文件被关闭,等同于(IN_CLOSE_WRITE | IN_CLOSE_NOWRITE)
IN_MOVE,文件被移动,等同于(IN_MOVED_FROM | IN_MOVED_TO)
pyinotify使用例子
#!/usr/bin/env python # encoding:utf-8 import os from pyinotify import WatchManager, Notifier, \ ProcessEvent,IN_DELETE, IN_CREATE,IN_MODIFY class EventHandler(ProcessEvent): """事件处理""" def process_IN_CREATE(self, event): print "Create file: %s " % os.path.join(event.path,event.name) def process_IN_DELETE(self, event): print "Delete file: %s " % os.path.join(event.path,event.name) def process_IN_MODIFY(self, event): print "Modify file: %s " % os.path.join(event.path,event.name) def FSMonitor(path='.'): wm = WatchManager() mask = IN_DELETE | IN_CREATE |IN_MODIFY notifier = Notifier(wm, EventHandler()) wm.add_watch(path, mask,auto_add=True,rec=True) print 'now starting monitor %s'%(path) while True: try: notifier.process_events() if notifier.check_events(): notifier.read_events() except KeyboardInterrupt: notifier.stop() break if __name__ == "__main__": FSMonitor('/home/firefoxbug')

PHP is mainly procedural programming, but also supports object-oriented programming (OOP); Python supports a variety of paradigms, including OOP, functional and procedural programming. PHP is suitable for web development, and Python is suitable for a variety of applications such as data analysis and machine learning.

PHP is suitable for web development and rapid prototyping, and Python is suitable for data science and machine learning. 1.PHP is used for dynamic web development, with simple syntax and suitable for rapid development. 2. Python has concise syntax, is suitable for multiple fields, and has a strong library ecosystem.

To run Python code in Sublime Text, you need to install the Python plug-in first, then create a .py file and write the code, and finally press Ctrl B to run the code, and the output will be displayed in the console.

PHP originated in 1994 and was developed by RasmusLerdorf. It was originally used to track website visitors and gradually evolved into a server-side scripting language and was widely used in web development. Python was developed by Guidovan Rossum in the late 1980s and was first released in 1991. It emphasizes code readability and simplicity, and is suitable for scientific computing, data analysis and other fields.

Python is more suitable for beginners, with a smooth learning curve and concise syntax; JavaScript is suitable for front-end development, with a steep learning curve and flexible syntax. 1. Python syntax is intuitive and suitable for data science and back-end development. 2. JavaScript is flexible and widely used in front-end and server-side programming.

Golang is better than Python in terms of performance and scalability. 1) Golang's compilation-type characteristics and efficient concurrency model make it perform well in high concurrency scenarios. 2) Python, as an interpreted language, executes slowly, but can optimize performance through tools such as Cython.

Writing code in Visual Studio Code (VSCode) is simple and easy to use. Just install VSCode, create a project, select a language, create a file, write code, save and run it. The advantages of VSCode include cross-platform, free and open source, powerful features, rich extensions, and lightweight and fast.

Running Python code in Notepad requires the Python executable and NppExec plug-in to be installed. After installing Python and adding PATH to it, configure the command "python" and the parameter "{CURRENT_DIRECTORY}{FILE_NAME}" in the NppExec plug-in to run Python code in Notepad through the shortcut key "F6".
