前言
最近項目中遇到一個用於監控日志文件的Python包pyinotify,結合自己的項目經驗和網上的一些資料總結一下,總的原理是利用pyinotify模塊監控日志文件夾,當日志到來的情況下,觸發相應的函數進行處理,處理完畢后刪除日志文件的過程,下面就着重介紹下pyinotify
pyinotify
Pyinotify是一個Python模塊,用來監測文件系統的變化。 Pyinotify依賴於Linux內核的功能—inotify(內核2.6.13合並)。 inotify的是一個事件驅動的通知器,其通知接口通過三個系統調用從內核空間到用戶空間。pyinotify結合這些系統調用,並提供一個頂級的抽象和一個通用的方式來處理這些功能。
- pyinotify 說百了就是通過 調用系統的inotify來實現通知的
- inotify 既可以監視文件,也可以監視目錄
- Inotify 使用系統調用而非 SIGIO 來通知文件系統事件。
Inotify 可以監視的文件系統事件包括:
Event Name | Is an Event | Description |
IN_ACCESS | Yes | file was accessed. |
IN_ATTRIB | Yes | metadata changed. |
IN_CLOSE_NOWRITE | Yes | unwrittable file was closed. |
IN_CLOSE_WRITE | Yes | writtable file was closed. |
IN_CREATE | Yes | file/dir was created in watched directory. |
IN_DELETE | Yes | file/dir was deleted in watched directory. |
IN_DELETE_SELF | Yes | 自刪除,即一個可執行文件在執行時刪除自己 |
IN_DONT_FOLLOW | No | don't follow a symlink (lk 2.6.15). |
IN_IGNORED | Yes | raised on watched item removing. Probably useless for you, prefer instead IN_DELETE*. |
IN_ISDIR | No | event occurred against directory. It is always piggybacked to an event. The Event structure automatically provide this information (via .is_dir) |
IN_MASK_ADD | No | to update a mask without overwriting the previous value (lk 2.6.14). Useful when updating a watch. |
IN_MODIFY | Yes | file was modified. |
IN_MOVE_SELF | Yes | 自移動,即一個可執行文件在執行時移動自己 |
IN_MOVED_FROM | Yes | file/dir in a watched dir was moved from X. Can trace the full move of an item when IN_MOVED_TO is available too, in this case if the moved item is itself watched, its path will be updated (see IN_MOVE_SELF). |
IN_MOVED_TO | Yes | file/dir was moved to Y in a watched dir (see IN_MOVE_FROM). |
IN_ONLYDIR | No | only watch the path if it is a directory (lk 2.6.15). Usable when calling .add_watch. |
IN_OPEN | Yes | file was opened. |
IN_Q_OVERFLOW | Yes | event queued overflowed. This event doesn't belongs to any particular watch. |
IN_UNMOUNT | Yes | 宿主文件系統被 umount |
IN_ACCESS,即文件被訪問 IN_MODIFY,文件被write IN_ATTRIB,文件屬性被修改,如chmod、chown、touch等 IN_CLOSE_WRITE,可寫文件被close IN_CLOSE_NOWRITE,不可寫文件被close IN_OPEN,文件被open IN_MOVED_FROM,文件被移走,如mv IN_MOVED_TO,文件被移來,如mv、cp IN_CREATE,創建新文件 IN_DELETE,文件被刪除,如rm IN_DELETE_SELF,自刪除,即一個可執行文件在執行時刪除自己 IN_MOVE_SELF,自移動,即一個可執行文件在執行時移動自己 IN_UNMOUNT,宿主文件系統被umount IN_CLOSE,文件被關閉,等同於(IN_CLOSE_WRITE | IN_CLOSE_NOWRITE) IN_MOVE,文件被移動,等同於(IN_MOVED_FROM | IN_MOVED_TO)
pyinotify使用例子
