YouTubeMonitorAndUpload

YouTubeMonitor.sh

#!/bin/sh
# Uses 'inoticoming' to efficiently monitor a directory and call an upload script.
#
# Usage:
# Remember to set the variables at the top of the script files.
# Can be run directly or at startup by adding lines to /etc/rc.local (Debian) example:
# sudo -b -u www-data /path/to/YouTubeMonitor.sh MONITOR_DIR COMPLETE_DIR [PLAYLIST_ID]
# Add one monitor line per directory/playlist.
# Now simply drop files into the monitored directory and they will be uploaded, named, tagged and playlisted.
#
# MONITOR_DIR might be an ftp, webdav or any directory.
#
# Depends on:
# - http://code.google.com/p/youtube-upload/ (download)
# - python-gdata (apt-get install)
# - inoticoming (apt-get install)
# - YouTubeUpload.sh (supplied)

## Set these variables.

I saw that there is no real Google Drive Sync for linux (except proprietary) , I really need to sync a folder. I installed and configured rclone, and I was wondering if I can use inoticoming to trigger sync events.
I already use inoticoming to print (lpr) Pdf files, that my wife needs for her business. She saves them as pdf in a watched folder, and that triggers the print command.
^Nice Code !
