FSNIPER(5)

NAME
$HOME/.config/fsniper/config - user configuration file for fsniper

DESCRIPTION

This file is read by fsniper(1) when launched. It is a C-style configuration file.

It begins with a watch section.

Then, each subsection is a directory to watch.

Under that, each subsection is a filter for file to apply a rule. There are 2 types of filters:

MIME-Type filters
    image/* will apply the rule only on images image/png will apply the rule only on png images

Name filters

    Wildcards
        *name* Match on name with regular wildcard. Or on extension (*.jpg for example)

    Regular Expressions
        /regex/ Match on name with the regex given.

The last section is the start of the rule, and its format is:
    handler = command to apply

    The command can be any shell command. To get the file name, use %%

    Example:
        handler = echo %%
