对我来说，最简单的解决方法就是使用看门狗的工具watchmedo

从https://pypi.python.org/pypi/watchdog我现在有一个进程，在一个目录中查找sql文件，并在必要时执行它们。

watchmedo shell-command \
--patterns="*.sql" \
--recursive \
--command='~/Desktop/load_files_into_mysql_database.sh' \
.

看看pyinotify。

Inotify在新的linux中取代了dnotify(从以前的答案)，并允许文件级而不是目录级监控。

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。
