|
||
<p>Please note that these are direct, low-level bindings to C functions that
|
||
form the inotify C API. Unless you have a specific reason to use this crate,
|
||
<a href="https://crates.io/crates/inotify">inotify-rs</a>, which is an idiomatic wrapper, is a much better choice.</p>
|
||
<h3 id="usage"><a class="doc-anchor" href="#usage">§</a>Usage</h3>
|
||
<p>In general, inotify usage follows the following pattern:</p>
|
||
<ol>
|
||
<li>Create an inotify instance using <a href="fn.inotify_init.html"><code>inotify_init</code></a> or <a href="fn.inotify_init1.html"><code>inotify_init1</code></a>.</li>
|
||
<li>Manage watches with <a href="fn.inotify_add_watch.html"><code>inotify_add_watch</code></a> and <a href="fn.inotify_rm_watch.html"><code>inotify_rm_watch</code></a>.</li>
|
||
<li>Read event using <a href="fn.read.html"><code>read</code></a>.</li>
|
||
<li>Close the inotify instance using <a href="fn.close.html"><code>close</code></a>, once you’re done.</li>
|
||
</ol>
|
||
<p>Please refer to the <a href="http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man7/inotify.7.html">inotify man page</a> and the rest of this documentation
|
||
for full details.</p>
