### File system events
|
||
|
|
||
|
To poll for file system events:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```ts
|
||
|
const watcher = Deno.watchFs("/");
|
||
|
for await (const event of watcher) {
|
||
|
console.log(">>>> event", event);
|
||
|
// { kind: "create", paths: [ "/foo.txt" ] }
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Note that the exact ordering of the events can vary between operating systems.
|
||
|
This feature uses different syscalls depending on the platform:
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Linux: inotify
|
||
|
- macOS: FSEvents
|
||
|
- Windows: ReadDirectoryChangesW
