Implement an intelligent scanner for Linux #21

Open larroy opened 10 years ago

larroy commented 10 years ago

The scanner should be triggered on file changes using the platforms file notification mechanism

Anyone working on this? Is there a "dumb" scanner implemented?

larroy commented 10 years ago

Yes, we have just the dumb scanner.

It would be good to explore something better with inotify or whatever is the state of the art today for the given platform.

Looks like libuv has basic support for file change events, so I'll start there.

Good point. Thanks, I didn't know this. Should make things easier if it works correctly. On Mar 28, 2014 10:34 PM, "Alex Chamberlain" notifications@github.com wrote:
