在Linux上通過身份跟蹤文件

Question

在OS X上，有一個API為磁盤上的給定文件創建一個“書簽”，即使移動或重命名該文件，它也會跟蹤其目標。 然后，OS X應用程序可以序列化書簽，以所需的任何方式存儲它，並在以后的某個日期（可能是在退出並重新啟動后）對書簽進行反序列化並從中解析文件路徑。

Linux是否有可比的東西？

我想inotify是您想要的。 使用inotify，您可以監視文件的以下事件：

IN_ACCESS - read of the file
IN_MODIFY - last modification
IN_ATTRIB - attributes of file change
IN_OPEN - open of file
IN_CLOSE_WRITE - sent when a file opened for writing is closed
IN_CLOSE_NOWRITE - sent when a file opened not for writing is closed
IN_MOVED_FROM and IN_MOVED_TO - when the file is moved or renamed
IN_DELETE - a file/directory deleted
IN_CREATE - a file in a watched directory is created
IN_DELETE_SELF - file monitored is deleted
