# Wait for

A small utility that waits for a file to exist, optionally with some permissions.

## Building

Either via Docker:

```console

$ git submodule update --init --recursive

$ docker build -t zeit/wait-for .

```

or using CMake (requires Linux)

```console

$ git submodule update --init --recursive

$ mkdir build && cd build

$ cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release

$ cmake --build .

```

## Usage

```

Wait_for [--help] [-rwx] [-dfps] [-U ] 

Wait for a file to exist and optionally have one or modes

-h, --help          Shows this help message

-x, --execute       Wait for the path to become executable

-r, --read          Wait for the path to become readable

-w, --write         Wait for the path to become writable

-p, --pipe          Wait for the path to be a pipe (FIFO)

-s, --socket        Wait for the path to be a socket

-f, --file          Wait for the path to be a regular file

-d, --directory     Wait for the path to be a directory

-U, --username      The username to run access checks for (NOT the user ID)

If multiple modes are specified, wait-for waits for all of them to become available.

If multiple file types are specified, wait-for waits for the file to be any one of the specified types.
