Arguments

:: Int	minimum lapse between polling actions
-> Configuration	notifier configuration
-> IO Notifier	the polling notifier

make a polling notifier , given an interval in seconds

data Configuration Source

Configuration for notifiers. Minimal configuration to build a notifier.

Constructors

Configuration
Fields top :: FilePath directory at the top of the hierarchy under control silence :: Int64 minimum time lapse in seconds where nothing changes before a difference is released select :: FilePath -> Bool filter for file paths, positive must be included

data DifferenceP a Source

Difference datatype containing a difference as three sets of paths. This datatype is the core content of a notification of changes in a hierarchy.

Constructors

DifferenceP
Fields created :: [a] Files appeared deleted :: [a] Files disappeared modified :: [a] Files modified

Instances

Functor DifferenceP
Eq a => Eq (DifferenceP a)
Show a => Show (DifferenceP a)
Eq a => Monoid (DifferenceP a)

type Difference = DifferenceP FilePath Source

data Notifier Source

Abstract notifiers. A Notifier is an object controlling a hierarchy.

Its difference method will block until a Difference is available and at least a time of peace has elapsed.

Reading a difference must result internally in deleting the difference and updating the list of paths. The list of paths read together with the difference is always the list of paths to which the difference will be applied.

Constructors

Notifier
Fields difference :: IO (Difference, [FilePath]) block until next difference stop :: IO () stop the notification daemon
