Add support for `watching` a directory for changes

Open chriscz opened this issue 9 years ago • 2 comments

Add support for monitoring a directory for changes, and applying the pysorter rule to it when they are detected.

It is important here to ensure that there is a quiet period before pysorter starts organizing, else a partial view might be sorted. For example during a directory copy operation.

Something like watchdog could be utilized for this. https://github.com/gorakhargosh/watchdog
