[Feature Request] Verbose output for daemon #86

Closed mgutt closed 3 years ago

mgutt commented 3 years ago

I like to see what the daemon is doing, but this command returns nothing: vmtouch -v -d -l -p 0M-60M "/mnt/disk1/Movie/OP"

I like to see following things:

what has been crawled
how many data of each file has been crawled
when it finished to crawl

Or is this something that is not possible because I choosed the daemon mode?

Yeah daemon was really only intended to keep the lock active. I think actually adding daemon mode to vmtouch wasn't a good idea, and it's sort of deprecated.
