如果您正在使用窗口，请创建此POLL。CMD文件

@echo off
:top
xcopy /m /y %1 %2 | find /v "File(s) copied"
timeout /T 1 > nul
goto :top

然后您可以输入“poll dir1 dir2”，它将从dir1复制所有文件到dir2，并每秒检查一次更新。

“find”是可选的，只是为了减少控制台的噪音。

这不是递归的。也许你可以在xcopy中使用/e使它成为递归。

这是对Tim Goldan脚本的另一种修改，它运行在unix类型上，并通过使用dict (file=>time)为文件修改添加了一个简单的监控器。

用法:whatvername .py path_to_dir_to_watch

#!/usr/bin/env python

import os, sys, time

def files_to_timestamp(path):
    files = [os.path.join(path, f) for f in os.listdir(path)]
    return dict ([(f, os.path.getmtime(f)) for f in files])

if __name__ == "__main__":

    path_to_watch = sys.argv[1]
    print('Watching {}..'.format(path_to_watch))

    before = files_to_timestamp(path_to_watch)

    while 1:
        time.sleep (2)
        after = files_to_timestamp(path_to_watch)

        added = [f for f in after.keys() if not f in before.keys()]
        removed = [f for f in before.keys() if not f in after.keys()]
        modified = []

        for f in before.keys():
            if not f in removed:
                if os.path.getmtime(f) != before.get(f):
                    modified.append(f)

        if added: print('Added: {}'.format(', '.join(added)))
        if removed: print('Removed: {}'.format(', '.join(removed)))
        if modified: print('Modified: {}'.format(', '.join(modified)))

        before = after

我不知道任何Windows特有的函数。您可以尝试每秒钟/分钟/小时获取文件的MD5哈希值(取决于您需要它的速度)，并将其与最后的哈希值进行比较。当它不同时，您知道文件已被更改，并读取最新的行。

import inotify.adapters
from datetime import datetime


LOG_FILE='/var/log/mysql/server_audit.log'


def main():
    start_time = datetime.now()
    while True:
        i = inotify.adapters.Inotify()
        i.add_watch(LOG_FILE)
        for event in i.event_gen(yield_nones=False):
            break
        del i

        with open(LOG_FILE, 'r') as f:
            for line in f:
                entry = line.split(',')
                entry_time = datetime.strptime(entry[0],
                                               '%Y%m%d %H:%M:%S')
                if entry_time > start_time:
                    start_time = entry_time
                    print(entry)


if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()

我会尝试这样的方法。

    try:
            f = open(filePath)
    except IOError:
            print "No such file: %s" % filePath
            raw_input("Press Enter to close window")
    try:
            lines = f.readlines()
            while True:
                    line = f.readline()
                    try:
                            if not line:
                                    time.sleep(1)
                            else:
                                    functionThatAnalisesTheLine(line)
                    except Exception, e:
                            # handle the exception somehow (for example, log the trace) and raise the same exception again
                            raw_input("Press Enter to close window")
                            raise e
    finally:
            f.close()

循环检查自上次读取文件以来是否有新的行——如果有，则将其读取并传递给functionThatAnalisesTheLine函数。如果不是，脚本等待1秒并重试该进程。
