FileWatcher | Monitoring file system changes in macOS | Monitoring library

Looking to create a Hot Custom hot reload feature. I need to create an Event They should be able to listen to the Save command. Assume there are two projects in the same solution. Solution: Project A Class test Project B When I change something inside the project A class test and after I used Ctrl+s it should trigger a method inside Project B. I want to listen to the File save the event in the project A Test Class. is there is any way to do this.

I was tried out the Both scenario

Try method 1:-

I am very new to coding (3 days in) and working on a project using FileSystemWatcher.

My current project is monitoring file changes to trigger an action.

I have it working correctly where it is monitoring a folder, with currently a single .txt file in it, and using OnChanged (looking at lastwrite) it triggers the action as expected. This is all fine and works perfectly, so I'm happy that I understand and can implement a basic FSW with an OnChanged event and trigger the appropriate action (go me, this is only after 3 days of learning C#).

However, I am unsure how to scale this up to multiple .txt files in the same folder, with each file triggering it's own specific action.

Example: A.txt, B.txt, and C.txt live in the same folder, using FSW whenever the files are changed I want to trigger an action specific to that file - so when OnChanged A.txt would trigger action a , and B.txt would trigger action b.

I imagine I will need to use queue's, possibly with BlockingCollection(?), however I do not understand how I can get the FSW to add to a queue in a way that it identifies WHICH file has been changed and then how to link that to the specific action for that file.

Any ideas how to mix FSW with queueing to trigger a set action?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have added my base code below (showing the FSW and OnChanged with an example action) - apologies if messy as I'm still learning.

I'm using the VS code extension: Live Sass Compiler with Live Server and when I save other scss files than my style.scss it doesn't compile my style.scss file. Is there a setting I missed to do this?

Since I did not find any setting for this, I thought I want to use a filewatcher so if any scss file is saved, I want to force a save on my style.scss to trigger the live sass compile.

So I added the extension File Watcher and now I wonder what cmd to use to force a save on my style.scss file. In File Watcher extension I get the echo everytime I save a .scss file using this:

I have a question regarding the EF in our ASP.NET Web Application. For our specific use-case we have to listen to a directory for added XML files. This works correctly using System.IO.FileSystemWatcher. Everything is wrapped within a class, which looks like this.

I am encountering a problem where I get the error TypeError: Cannot read property 'doFileHasCorrectFileExtension' of undefined when I create an file or an folder. I expect my application to be able to use the method doFileHasCorrectFileExtension without having it being undefined.

As an attempt to solve my problem I created an variable that hold the object created by the class.

I am creating a Filewatcher in the loop below. I would like to know if there are any performance or reference issues, since my reference variable is the same in the loop?

I have a small Dotnet core program (3.1.8), with some FileWatchers. They watch folders on a network drive. With some load (200 - 250 files maximum here), the program crashes unexpectedly. These files come at the same time, moved by another process on another server thanks to a Biztalk app, I don't think it's relevant here but I wanted to mention it.

The filewatchers initialization:

I am using GIT remote extensions of Visual Studio code in my local laptop and when I connect to remote host via SSH I am seeing lot of unknown changes synced to GIT and waiting to stage or discard or commit . most of them coming from .vscode-server hidden directory from my remote machine . I tried to exclude it with all patterns in fileWatcher and couldn't help even if after reload . I did same patterns to exclude showing those files in User , Remote and workspace all areas but no luck . Any thoughts ?

Image is below and left hand side is almost 1K files which I have no idea why it came and some of the files I stage but it keep coming .

I am trying to run a typescript express.js in a docker container. After running the docker I get the following error:
