Enum WatchEvent 

pub enum WatchEvent {
    Create,
    Delete,
    Update,
    DebugWatch,
}

Type of file system event.

These events correspond to inotify events, but are simplified into three categories that cover most use cases.

Variants

Create

File or directory was created.

Also triggered when a file/directory is moved into a watched directory.

Delete

File or directory was deleted.

Also triggered when a file/directory is moved out of a watched directory.

Update

File content was modified.

Triggered on IN_MODIFY (content changed) or IN_CLOSE_WRITE (file opened for writing was closed). Directory content changes (files added/removed) are reported as Create/Delete instead.

DebugWatch

Debug event: a watch was added on this directory.

Only emitted when WatchBuilder::debug_watches is enabled. Useful for understanding which directories are being watched based on your patterns.

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for WatchEvent

fn clone(&self) -> WatchEvent

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for WatchEvent

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl PartialEq for WatchEvent

fn eq(&self, other: &WatchEvent) -> bool

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.
