我有一个日志文件正在写的另一个进程,我想观察变化。每次发生更改时,我都希望将新数据读入并对其进行一些处理。

最好的方法是什么?我希望在PyWin32库中有某种钩子。我找到了win32文件。函数FindNextChangeNotification,但不知道如何要求它监视特定的文件。

如果有人做过类似的事情,我真的很感激能听到…

[编辑]我应该提到我追求的是一种不需要轮询的解决方案。

[编辑]诅咒!这似乎不能在映射的网络驱动器上工作。我猜windows不会像在本地磁盘上那样“听到”任何对文件的更新。


当前回答

如果轮询对您来说足够好,我只观察“修改的时间”文件统计是否发生变化。阅读方法:

os.stat(filename).st_mtime

(还要注意,Windows本机更改事件解决方案并不在所有情况下都有效,例如在网络驱动器上。)

import os

class Monkey(object):
    def __init__(self):
        self._cached_stamp = 0
        self.filename = '/path/to/file'

    def ook(self):
        stamp = os.stat(self.filename).st_mtime
        if stamp != self._cached_stamp:
            self._cached_stamp = stamp
            # File has changed, so do something...

其他回答

看看我对类似问题的回答。您可以在Python中尝试相同的循环。本页建议:

import time

while 1:
    where = file.tell()
    line = file.readline()
    if not line:
        time.sleep(1)
        file.seek(where)
    else:
        print line, # already has newline

还可以使用Python查看文件中的问题tail()。

你试过用看门狗吗?

Python API库和shell实用程序来监视文件系统事件。 目录监视变得很容易 一个跨平台的API。 一个shell工具,用于在目录更改时运行命令。 用一个简单的例子开始快速入门…

                print(e)
                print('Unhandled error: %s' % sys.exc_info()[0])

# Call this function each time a change happens
def custom_action(text):

watch_files = ['/Users/mexekanez/my_file.txt', '/Users/mexekanez/my_file1.txt']

# watcher = Watcher(watch_file)  # simple



if __name__ == "__main__":
    watcher = Watcher(watch_files, custom_action, text='yes, changed')  # also call custom action function
    watcher.watch()  # start the watch going

watchfiles (https://github.com/samuelcolvin/watchfiles)是一个Python API和CLI,它使用了用Rust编写的Notify (https://github.com/notify-rs/notify)库。

rust实现目前(2022-10-09)支持:

Linux / Android: inotify macOS: FSEvents或kqueue,参见特性 Windows: ReadDirectoryChangesW FreeBSD / NetBSD / OpenBSD / DragonflyBSD: kqueue 所有平台:投票

可以在PyPI (https://pypi.org/project/watchfiles/)和conda-forge (https://github.com/conda-forge/watchfiles-feedstock)上获得二进制文件。
