watchdog_exec

=============

Cross-platform command-line execute-on-fs-event tool.

## Install

Written+tested with Python 2.7, but would probably work unedited on Python 3:

    pip install https://github.com/SamuelMarks/watchdog_exec/archive/master.zip#egg=watchdog_exec

## Example runs

On fs event involving files and folders in current directory, run `echo $src $dst` command, unless it the fs event is modified, then run `python $src` command.

    python -m watchdog_exec . --execute echo --modified python

Using short arguments, and restricting to only execute when events involve "__main__.py":

    python -m watchdog_exec . -e echo -a echo -s __main__.py

## Usage

    usage: python -m watchdog_exec [-h] -e EXEC [-m MOVED] [-c CREATED] [-d DELETED]

                                   [-a MODIFIED] [-f] [-g] [-s SPECIFIC_FILE]

                                   directory
