I am watching a directory for new files in Bash.
When a file is created, the file name will be output to the pipe (-> /tmp/directory/filename.ext) and exit.
$ inotifywait /tmp/directory/
How can I submit this to eggdrop so it will output the filename in a channel? Anybody have an idea?

inotify directory
I guess the listen with script as argument would be your best bet.
user (a forum member, sadly no longer active) created a socket api - nonblocking tcp made easy that is worth checking.
Haven't played with this feature and not sure what arguments and how you can pass them to the proc that's listening for your connection.
Code: Select all
listen <port> script <proc> [flag]
Description: accepts connections which are immediately routed to a proc. The proc is called with one parameter: the idx of the new connection. Flag may currently only be 'pub', which makes the bot allow anyone to connect and not perform an ident lookup. Returns: port number
