features

• file watcher
• stop watch
• ring buffer matcher

examples

• file watcher: The file watch will detects if the file is changed or not, and execute a callback if it is changed.

    // In this example, the last-modified-time determines if a file is modified or not.
    // if you want to use the md5 sum of a file content as the *state*, you can create your own Monitor to detect if the file state is changed by implementing the UpdateModifer interface.

    w, err := NewWatcher(tmpfile.Name(), &LastModifiedMonitor{})
	assert.NoError(t, err)

	cnt := 0
	cb := func(path string) {
		cnt++
	}

    // file is not changed, cnt == 0
	err = w.Check(cb)
	assert.NoError(t, err)
	assert.Equal(t, 0, cnt)

	_, err = tmpfile.WriteString("add")
	assert.NoError(t, err)

    // file is changed, last modified time is updated, cnt == 1
	err = w.Check(cb)
	assert.NoError(t, err)
	assert.Equal(t, 1, cnt)

• stop watch: the stop watch sometimes can help developers to log the running time of functions, code blocks etc. See Example.

• ring buffer matcher: A RingBuffer that can be used to scan byte sequences for subsequences. This class implements an efficient naive search algorithm, which allows the user of the library to identify byte sequences in a stream on-the-fly so that the stream can be segmented without having to buffer the data.
