Automation with Fsniper
May 21st, 2009
Fsniper is a great, easy-to-use tool to automatically watch over your folders/files and perform a given action every time there is new file in the folder or a change is made to any of the files. For example, I develop some websites locally, but I also test them on a remote test server. To make sure my local machine and remote server are always in sync I simply have fsniper watch over my web directory and have it run rsync every time a change in this directory occurs. This is just one simple example, fsniper is actually so flexible that only your imagination sets limit to what you can do. Read more to see how to get started using fsniper…
