A babashka pod for watching files.

Implemented using the Go fsnotify library.

Experimental.

Load the pod:

(require '[babashka.pods :as pods])
(pods/load-pod 'org.babashka/fswatcher "0.0.2")

(require '[pod.babashka.fswatcher :as fw])

Watchers can be created with fw/watch:

(def watcher (fw/watch "src" (fn [event] (prn event))))

You can create multiple watchers that run concurrently, even on the same directory.

The watch function returns a value which can be passed to unwatch which stops and cleans up the watcher:

(fw/unwatch watcher)

See test/script.clj for an example test script.

By default watchers do not watch recursively. Pass {:recursive true} in the options map to enable it.

(fw/watch "src" (fn [event] (prn event)) {:recursive true})

• Go 1.15+ should be installed.
• Clone this repo.
• Run go build -o pod-babashka-fswatcher main.go to compile the binary.
