trapperkeeper-filesystem-watcher

This library includes a Trapperkeeper service which provides an API for watching paths on the filesystem for changes and doing something when they change.

Usage

Add the following dependency to your project.clj file:

Development

The service implementation in this repository is based on java.nio's WatchService. The default implementation of that interface varies drastically in behavior between certain platforms, especially Mac OSX and Linux. The Trapperkeeper service protocol in this repository is consciously written in a platform-agnostic way. When working on this code, it is often a good idea to run the tests on multiple platforms as part of development - say, if you write code on a Mac, run the tests on a Linux VM as well. This is can save you the pain of finding out that things don't work as expected due to platform-specific differences in the implementation of the JDK's WatchService once your new code gets into CI.
