问题
I want to watch a directory for file changes. And I used WatchService in java.nio. I can successfully listen for file created event. But I can\'t listen for file modify event. I checked official java tutorial, but still struggling.
Here is the source code.
import static java.nio.file.LinkOption.NOFOLLOW_LINKS;
import static java.nio.file.StandardWatchEventKinds.ENTRY_CREATE;
import static java.nio.file.StandardWatchEventKinds.OVERFLOW;
import static java.nio.file.StandardWatchEventKinds.ENTRY_DELETE;
import static java.nio.file.StandardWatchEventKinds.ENTRY_MODIFY;
import java.io.File;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.nio.file.FileSystem;
import java.nio.file.Files;
import java.nio.file.Path;
import java.nio.file.WatchEvent;
import java.nio.file.WatchEvent.Kind;
import java.nio.file.WatchKey;
import java.nio.file.WatchService;
public class MainWatch {
public static void watchDirectoryPath(Path path) {
// Sanity check - Check if path is a folder
try {
Boolean isFolder = (Boolean) Files.getAttribute(path,
\"basic:isDirectory\", NOFOLLOW_LINKS);
if (!isFolder) {
throw new IllegalArgumentException(\"Path: \" + path
+ \" is not a folder\");
}
} catch (IOException ioe) {
// Folder does not exists
ioe.printStackTrace();
}
System.out.println(\"Watching path: \" + path);
// We obtain the file system of the Path
FileSystem fs = path.getFileSystem();
// We create the new WatchService using the new try() block
try (WatchService service = fs.newWatchService()) {
// We register the path to the service
// We watch for creation events
path.register(service, ENTRY_CREATE);
path.register(service, ENTRY_MODIFY);
path.register(service, ENTRY_DELETE);
// Start the infinite polling loop
WatchKey key = null;
while (true) {
key = service.take();
// Dequeueing events
Kind<?> kind = null;
for (WatchEvent<?> watchEvent : key.pollEvents()) {
// Get the type of the event
kind = watchEvent.kind();
if (OVERFLOW == kind) {
continue; // loop
} else if (ENTRY_CREATE == kind) {
// A new Path was created
Path newPath = ((WatchEvent<Path>) watchEvent)
.context();
// Output
System.out.println(\"New path created: \" + newPath);
} else if (ENTRY_MODIFY == kind) {
// modified
Path newPath = ((WatchEvent<Path>) watchEvent)
.context();
// Output
System.out.println(\"New path modified: \" + newPath);
}
}
if (!key.reset()) {
break; // loop
}
}
} catch (IOException ioe) {
ioe.printStackTrace();
} catch (InterruptedException ie) {
ie.printStackTrace();
}
}
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException,
InterruptedException {
// Folder we are going to watch
// Path folder =
// Paths.get(System.getProperty(\"C:\\\\Users\\\\Isuru\\\\Downloads\"));
File dir = new File(\"C:\\\\Users\\\\Isuru\\\\Downloads\");
watchDirectoryPath(dir.toPath());
}
}
回答1:
Actually you have incorrectly subscribed to events. Only last listener has been registered with ENTRY_DELETE events type.
To register for all kind of events at once you should use:
path.register(service, ENTRY_CREATE, ENTRY_MODIFY, ENTRY_DELETE);
回答2:
Warning! Shameless self promotion!
I have created a wrapper around Java 1.7's WatchService that allows registering a directory and any number of glob patterns. This class will take care of the filtering and only emit events you are interested in.
DirectoryWatchService watchService = new SimpleDirectoryWatchService(); // May throw
watchService.register( // May throw
new DirectoryWatchService.OnFileChangeListener() {
@Override
public void onFileCreate(String filePath) {
// File created
}
@Override
public void onFileModify(String filePath) {
// File modified
}
@Override
public void onFileDelete(String filePath) {
// File deleted
}
},
<directory>, // Directory to watch
<file-glob-pattern-1>, // E.g. "*.log"
<file-glob-pattern-2>, // E.g. "input-?.txt"
... // As many patterns as you like
);
watchService.start();
Complete code is in this repo.

Check this Code...
https://github.com/omkar9999/FileWatcherHandler
This project allows watching files for different file events like create, modify & delete and then act on these events in a generic way.
How to Use?
Create a Path object representing the directory to monitor for file events.
Path path = Paths.get("/home/omkar/test");
Implement the FileHandler interface to perform an action detected by file event registered.
public class FileHandlerTest implements FileHandler {
private static final Logger LOGGER = Logger.getLogger(FileHandlerTest.class.getName());
/*
* This implemented method will delete the file
*
* @see com.io.util.FileHandler#handle(java.io.File,
* java.nio.file.WatchEvent.Kind)
*/
public void handle(File file, Kind<?> fileEvent) {
LOGGER.log(Level.INFO,"Handler is triggered for file {0}",file.getPath());
if(fileEvent == StandardWatchEventKinds.ENTRY_CREATE) {
try {
boolean deleted = Files.deleteIfExists(Paths.get(file.getPath()));
assertTrue(deleted);
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
}
Create an instance of an Implemented FileHandler
FileHandlerTest fileHandlerTest = new FileHandlerTest();
Create an instance of a FileWatcher by passing path, an instance of an Implemented FileHandler, and types of file events that you want to monitor separated by commas.
FileWatcher fileWatcher = new FileWatcher(path, fileHandlerTest, StandardWatchEventKinds.ENTRY_CREATE);
Now Create and start a new Thread.
Thread watcherThread = new Thread(fileWatcher);
watcherThread.start();
This thread will start polling for your registered file events and will invoke your custom handle method once any of the registered events are detected.
