DirFileWatcher

This repository contains a simple Go application that monitors changes in multiple directories using the fsnotify library. Monitored events are output to the console and simultaneously logged to a file called log.log and to the SQLite database events.db.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

Go (at least version 1.16)
fsnotify

Installing

Clone the repository to your local machine:

git clone https://github.com/KentaGoto/DirFileWatcher

Navigate to the project directory:

cd DirFileWatcher

Usage

Open main.go and modify the directories slice with the paths to the directories you want to monitor:

directories := []string{
    "/path/to/your/directory1",
    "/path/to/your/directory2",
    // You can add more directories here
}

Run the program:

go run main.go

Monitored events are logged to the console, to the log.log file, and to the SQLite database.

Database

The application uses a SQLite database named events.db. This database contains a table named events, where each event is stored as a new record. The table has the following three columns:

id: A unique ID for the event. This is an integer that auto-increments.
event: The type of event that occurred, such as file creation, modification, or deletion.
file: The name of the file where the event occurred.

Log File

The log.log file contains logs of all file change events. Whenever a new event occurs, its information is appended to this file.
