I'm not allowed to publish my company's code, but the logic if very easy
to understand (you will have to "invent" your own solution, below code
is bare bone):
class MainThread implements Runnable {
private boolean keepRunning = true;
public void run() {
while(keepRunning) {
try {
executeFiles();
Thread.sleep(30000); // sleep 30 seconds
} catch(Exception ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
private void executeFiles() {
File monitorDir = new File("/var/mydatafolder/");
File processingDir = new File("/var/myprocessingfolder/");
// I'll import only files with names like "data20120621.csv":
FileFilter fileFilter = new FileFilter() {
public boolean accept(File file) {
boolean isfile = file.isFile() && !file.isHidden() &&
!file.isDirectory();
if(!isfile) return false;
String fname = file.getName();
return fname.startsWith("data") &&
(file.getName().endsWith("csv"));
}
};
List<File> forProcessing = monitorDir.listFiles(fileFilter);
for(File fileFound : forProcessing) {
// FileUtil is a utility class, you will have to create
your own... your move method will vary according your Operating System
FileUtil.move(fileFound, processingDir);
// ProcessFile is a class that implements Runnable, and do
your stuff there...
Thread t = new Thread(new ProcessFile(processingDir,
fileFound.getName()));
t.start();
}
}
/** Use this method to stop the thread from another place in your
complex system! */
public void synchronized stopWorker() {
keepRunning = false;
}
public static void main(String [] args) {
Thread t = new Thread(new MainThread());
t.start();
}
}
