Watch for files being written and queue them when they are ready.
When a file is written in the folder of your choosing, a string containing the filename will be sent on a channel.
// The channel 'c' will receive the full filenames of the files that have been written.
ctx := context.Background()
c := make(chan string, 5)
go func() {
for {
file := <-c
fmt.Println("Got:", file)
}
}()
fmt.Println("Starting file watcher")
err := WatchForIncomingFiles(ctx, "/tmp", ".log", c)
if err != nil {
log.Println(err)
}This was cobbled together really quickly to solve a problem I had. It works and does the job it has to do for me. YMMV. Improvements are definitely possible and are encouraged, but for me personally this is fine the way it is now.
