This script looks for changes in Dropbox folder. Upon any change, waits for the status to be Up to date. When it's fully synced, starts a build process (/app/build.bin).
#!/bin/sh
uptodate () {
# returns 1 if up to date, 0 otherwise.
python /root/dropbox.py status | grep "Up to date" |wc -l
}
build_after_uptodate() {
while [ "$(uptodate)" != "1" ]; do
sleep 1
done
echo "Build now!"
/app/build.bin
}
while true #run indefinitely
do
if [ -d "/root/Dropbox" ]; then
inotifywait -r -e modify,attrib,close_write,move,create,delete ~/Dropbox && build_after_uptodate
fi
done
