**Rewriting an NLP tool from C++ to Zig** Guillaume Wenzek ## Overview FastBPE is a [C++ implementation](https://github.com/glample/fastBPE) of the Bytes Pair Encoding (BPE) algorithm from [Sennrich]. Goals: * learn Zig on a small performance-oriented project. * check for myself the "Zig is faster than C" [#Sennrich]: Sennrich, Rico, Barry Haddow, and Alexandra Birch. [Neural Machine Translation of Rare Words with Subword Units](https://arxiv.org/abs/1508.07909) (2015) # What's BPE ? ## "Words" * for NLP we want to split text into "words" * learning from "words" is easier than learning from characters * "word" isn't a well defined concept * "word" is language specific * `isn't` -> 1 word * `qu'il` -> 2 word * some languages don't really have words ## Traditional regex tokenizer * lot of language specific rules * assumes you know the language of the text * very large vocabulary * scaling problem for language models * you always find words outside of your vocabulary * or rare words that aren't correctly handled by your model ## BPE solution * splitting the text in frequent chuncks of characters. * `I'm eating some apples.` -> `I'm eat ing some appl es.` * Compromise between * linguistic * speed * vocabulary size * Not state of the art anymore, see: [sentence piece](https://github.com/google/sentencepiece) ## Outline of the algorithm * At train time, use some basic tokenization (on spaces, newlines, ...) * Compute the frequency of all n-grams * At inference time: 1. reuse the same basic tokenization 2. Treat each character of the word as a token 3. Merge recursively the tokens, prioritizing those with the highest score: * `e a t i n g` * `ea t i n g` * `ea t i ng` * `ea t ing` * `eat ing` * The algorithm is mostly linear but quadratic in the length of your words. # The Zig rewrite ## C++ implementation * C++ implementation was doing a lot of: * vector creation * to store the list of tokens at each step * string concatenation * to store in the token list ## Zig implementation * In Zig string memory allocation is painfull * vectors are preallocated, only need two at a time * string aren't concatenated, but re-sliced from the original text * Decided what to do with pathological edge case * if a "word" is greater than 4096, it is skipped * TODO split the word in arbitrary 4096 chunks ## Benchmark * Evaluated the "applyBPE" * Corpus is 800k words from French Wikipedia * All implementations produce the exact same files * For C++ there are two implementations: * `apply` loads a whole file in memory and treat it with 4 threads * `apply_stream` read from stdin and process lines one by one in a single thread. * Zig implementation is only single threaded ## Benchmark results | Implementation | Time | Word / s | |:---------------|------:|---------:| | C++ (batch) | 0.47s | 1702k/s | | C++ | 2.92s | 274k/s | | Zig | 0.97s | 825k/s | # Python wrapper ## The different options | Tool | API language | Static | Fast | |:--------:|:-------------|:--------|:-----| | Cython | Python-like | static | fast | | pybind11 | C++ | static | fast | | cffi | Python | dynamic | slow | | ctypes | Python | dynamic | slow | [#Behnel]: [Cython, pybind11, cffi – which tool should you choose?](http://blog.behnel.de/posts/cython-pybind11-cffi-which-tool-to-choose.html) - Stefan Behnel ## Benchmark ```py import fastBPE, sys, time def apply(file: str, codes: str) -> None: start = time.time() f = sys.stdin if file == "-" else open(file, mode="r") bpe = fastBPE.fastBPE(codes, "") for i, line in enumerate(f): s = bpe.apply([line[:-1]])[0] print(s) delay = time.time() - start print(f"Computed BPE on {i} sentences in {delay:.2f}s, using cython wrapper around cpp implementation", file=sys.stderr) ``` ## Benchmark Results | Implementation | Time | Word / s | Overhead | |:---------------|------:|---------:|:---------| | C++ | 2.92s | 274/s | 1× (ref) | | C++ - Cython | 2.79s | 287/s | 0.95× | | Zig | 1.06s | 755/s | 1× (ref) | | Zig - Ctypes | 1.07s | 748/s | 1.01× | ## Flame graph C++ + Cython ![C++ - Cython](./test/cpp_cython.svg) * messed up * mostly inside `unordered_map::find` * ~10% inside `vec::push_back` Made with [py-spy](https://www.benfrederickson.com/profiling-native-python-extensions-with-py-spy/) ## Flame graph Zig + Ctypes ![Zig - Ctypes](./test/zig_ctypes.svg) * 25% in `HashMap.ensureCapacityExact` called during loading * 14% copying back results from zig to python. * `PyCFuncPtrCall` that cost 6%. * reading the file from python seems faster than from Zig/C++ 🤔 ## The Zig side ```zig export fn ctypes_apply_sentence( bpe: *BPEApplyer, sentence: [*]const u8, sentence_len: usize, out: [*]u8 ) usize { ... } ``` ## The Python side ```py import ctypes zig = ctypes.CDLL(str(root / "zig-cache/lib/libfastBPE_apply.so")) zig.ctypes_apply_sentence.argtypes = [ ctypes.c_void_p, ctypes.POINTER(ctypes.c_char), ctypes.c_size_t, ctypes.POINTER(ctypes.c_char), ] _buff = ctypes.create_string_buffer(b"_" * 4096) def bpe_sent(bpe, sentence: bytes) -> bytes: i = zig.ctypes_apply_sentence(bpe, sentence, len(sentence), _buff) return bytes(_buff.value[:i]) ``` # Conclusion ## TODOs * Implement multi-threading with async/await * Figure out what's the right level of synchronization ## Painpoints * need to think about memory allocation ALL the time * eg: resolving a file path * not used to this level of error handling * private members / functions ? * the Zig / Python interface is a bit verbose * generate c-like function with Zig comptime reflection * allow Zig to export function with slices ? * provide a `zigtypes` module ? ## Conclusion * Zig is fun * Zig source code is your friend * Helps finding the API * Helps learning the language * Thanks for listening !

USERHELPER
Section: Maintenance Commands (8)Updated: January 8 2008
Index Return to Main Contents
NAME
userhelper - A helper interface to PAM.SYNOPSIS
userhelper [ -t ] [ -w prog args ] [ -c ] [ -f full-name ] [ -o office ] [ -p office-phone ] [ -h home-phone ] [ -s shell ] [ username ]DESCRIPTION
NOTE this program is NOT intended to be run interactively. If you want to change this information on the command line use passwd(1), chfn(1), or chsh(1).This program provides a basic interface to change a user's password, gecos information, and shell. The main difference between this program and its traditional equivalents is that prompts are written to standard out to make it easy for a GUI wrapper to interface to it as a child process.
The output is in the form of:
- <number> <string>
Where the number is the type of prompt returned from libpam, and the string is the prompt to give the user.
The prompt numbers are as follows:
- 1
- Prompt with visible input.
- 2
- Prompt with invisible input.
- 3
- Suggested answer for the current prompt.
- 4
- Informational message.
- 5
- Error message.
- 6
- Count of messages sent in this block so far.
- 7
- The name of the service being used.
- 8
- Whether or not the command will be executed as the user if authentication fails.
- 9
-
The name of the user being authenticated.
OPTIONS
- -t
- Use text mode authentication instead of the numbered message types just described; only used with -w.
- -w
- Specify a program name to be run and arguments to be passed to it. userhelper will look in the file /etc/security/console.apps/programname for the name of a user to authenticate, the path of the binary to be run, and other settings described below. userhelper will then attempt to authenticate the user using PAM, specifying programname as the PAM service name. If authentication succeeds, the binary will be run with superuser privileges. If the configuration file specifies that PAM session management should be performed, userhelper will also open a PAM session before starting the program, and close the session when the program terminates. If authentication fails, userhelper can be configured run the program with the user's privileges instead.
- -c
- Change the current user's password. Note that this option cannot be used with any of the other options. This is due to the limitation in the interface to libpam.
- -f
- Specify a new Full Name.
- -o
- Specify a new Office.
- -p
- Specify a new Office Phone.
- -h
- Specify a new Home Phone.
- -s
- Specify a new shell.
WRAPPER CONFIGURATION
The wrapper configuration file used with -w contains variable assignments and file inclusions.A file inclusion line has the following form:
- . path
A variable assignment line has the following form:
- name=value
The following variables are recognized:
- USER
-
The name of the user userhelper should attempt to authenticate the invoking
user as. Typically this is root. The special value <user> (which
is also the default) indicates that userhelper should authenticate the invoking
user.
The special value <none> indicates that access should be denied; when used in conjunction with UGROUPS, members of the given groups can authenticate but all others are given an Insufficient Rights message.
- UGROUPS
- A comma-separated list of groups whose members will be authenticated as if USER were set to the special value <user>. If the invoking user is not a member of one of these groups, the name defined in USER will be used as normal. For example, setting UGROUPS to wheel and USER to root allows members of wheel (traditionally used for administrative privileges) to authenticate with their own credentials and requires other users to provide the root password.
- PROGRAM
- The name of the binary to execute if authentication succeeds. This should always be specified as an absolute path. If not specified, userhelper will attempt to run /sbin/programname first, and failing that, it will attempt to run /usr/sbin/programname.
- SESSION
- Specifies whether or not userhelper should perform PAM session management when running the program. Typically this is needed if the PAM configuration uses a module such as pam_xauth.so to forward X11 authentication tokens for use by the program. Valid values are yes and no, with the default being no.
- KEEP_ENV_VARS
- A comma-separated list of names of environment variables that should be kept in the environment of the wrapped program. The environment is cleared by default and only a few selected variables are kept in the environment if they do not contain any potentially dangerous substrings.
- RETRY
- Specifies the number of times userhelper should attempt to authenticate the user if the initial attempt fails. The default value is 2, which causes userhelper to attempt to authenticate the user a total of 3 times.
- FALLBACK
- Specifies whether or not the specified binary should be run with the invoking user's privileges if authentication fails. This option is useful for running applications which gain additional abilities when run with superuser privileges, but which are still useful when run without them.
- NOXOPTION
- The name of an option which, if passed to userhelper as an argument for the program it will run, will cause userhelper to behave as if the -t flag had been passed to it.
- GUI
- Specifies whether or not userhelper should use consolehelper to present graphical dialog boxes when prompting the user for information. This is the inverse of the -t option. Valid values are yes and no, with the default being yes.
- BANNER
- Specifies specific text which userhelper should present to the user when userhelper prompts for information. The default is a generic message based on the PAM service name.
- BANNER_DOMAIN
- Specifies the text domain in which translations of the banner are stored. This setting is deprecated in favor of the DOMAIN setting.
- DOMAIN
- Specifies the text domain in which translations of strings are stored. If this setting is specified, it overrides any setting for BANNER_DOMAIN which may also be set.
- STARTUP_NOTIFICATION_NAME
- Specifies the startup notification name used for startup notification.
- STARTUP_NOTIFICATION_DESCRIPTION
- Specifies the startup notification name used for startup notification.
- STARTUP_NOTIFICATION_WORKSPACE
- Specifies the startup notification workspace used for startup notification.
- STARTUP_NOTIFICATION_WMCLASS
- Specifies the startup notification binary wmclass used for startup notification.
- STARTUP_NOTIFICATION_BINARY_NAME
- Specifies the startup notification binary name used for startup notification.
- STARTUP_NOTIFICATION_ICON_NAME
-
Specifies the startup notification icon name used for startup notification.
EXIT STATUS
A non-zero exit status indicates an error occurred. Those errors are:- 1
- The authentication passwords was incorrect.
- 2
- One or more of the GECOS fields is invalid. This occurs when there is a colon supplied in one of the fields.
- 3
- Password resetting error.
- 4
- Some system files are locked.
- 5
- User unknown.
- 6
- Insufficient rights.
- 7
- Invalid call to this program.
- 8
- The shell provided is not valid (i.e., does not exist in /etc/shells).
- 9
- Ran out of memory.
- 10
- Could not find the program.
- 11
- exec failed even though program exists.
- 12
- the user canceled the operation.
- 255
- Unknown error.
FILES
- /etc/passwd
- The gecos and shell information is stored in this file.
- /etc/shells
- This file is checked to see if the new shell supplied is valid.
- /etc/security/console.apps/prog
- This file contains the values which will be used for the variables when userhelper is used with the -w flag.
- /etc/pam.d/prog
- This file contains the PAM configuration used when userhelper is used with the -w flag.

Paltrow, Affleck bounce...but not very high
Bounce A film review by Michael Redman Copyright 2000 by Michael Redman
**1/2 (out of ****)
A majority of people probably begin affairs with little white lies. Their personal history ("I've never done this before") and current status ("Of course they're real") are exaggerated slightly to create a more positive face. Praise ("You're the best I've ever been with") tends towards the hyperbolic.
Some falsehoods are more serious ("That was someone else with the same name in the newspaper") and some downright dangerous ("No, I'm not psychotic").
If the relationship progresses there comes a time when the honesty must out and intense back-peddling takes place ("Well, yes, I am sorta married, but I'm getting divorced soon, I promise"). The more monumental the deception, the higher the level of guilt and the greater the risk in both telling the truth and keeping the secret. Explaining that "I'm the man who caused your husband's death and I've been lying to you ever since we met" is probably a potential deal-breaker.
Buddy (Ben Affleck) faces such a dilemma when he falls for the widow of the man he unintentionally doomed.
In a snowed-in airport bar, the ad exec sits with two strangers awaiting news of their delayed flights. Greg (Tony Goldwyn) wants to get home to his family. Buddy wants to score a homer with Mimi (Natasha Henstridge), their attractive companion. When Mimi hints heavily that she wouldn't be opposed to sharing her hotel room, Buddy gives his rescheduled flight ticket to Greg.
Sex with a perfect stranger saves Buddy's life. The plane crashes with no survivors.
Understandably shaken by his close brush, Buddy hits the bottle for a year. As part of the 12-step recovery program, he has to make amends to people he has wronged and looks up Greg's widow Abby (Gwyneth Paltrow).

Ignoring all the danger signs (guilt-ridden man wants to rescue wounded woman so he can make himself feel better) and this being a movie, their lies lead to -- you guessed it -- true love. The film follows the tried but true formula. He falls for her and can't bring himself to confess because it would destroy their relationship. Does she find out? Do they break up? Can they get back together? You've seen this all before.
It takes forever for Abby learn the truth. Since you know it's going to happen, every scene poses the question. Is he going to tell her now? How about now? Maybe now? Better to get it done with and on with the story.
Just because the outcome of every plot element is known after the first five minutes doesn't necessarily mean you won't enjoy the film. But it does mean that characterization and chemistry have to work overtime. Here there is good news and bad news.
 Affleck's journey from wise-cracking rogue to caring lover and father figure by way of demon rum and AA is an interesting premise but not very convincing. His character is too over-romanticized to be very believable.
The sparks between them are the linchpin of the film but there is no blazing fire. The audience's investment in Abby's decision whether she can spend the rest of her life with a man who reminds her of her dead husband every time she looks at him requires that we understand her overwhelming desire to do so. That passion is never on the screen. The two feel shielded from letting us see any deep emotions.
A different relationship that gets very little screen time is much more engaging. Buddy's caustic gay assistant and fellow AA member (Johnny Galecki) is the liveliest character in the film and has the best lines. A more interesting story would have been about those two. Instead they go from enemies to friends invisibly.
Director Don Roos scored a major hit with his quirky "The Opposite Of Sex" but this mainstream attempt is just so-so. The final few minutes are absolutely atrocious.
My biggest gripe with this film is product placement. A couple of IMacs in the background are acceptable, but six-foot tall Coke cans (regular, diet, caffeine-free -- take your choice) repeatedly shoved in our faces is an insult. One also has to wonder how much Paltrow's breasts paid for their prominent screen placement.

Android MIDI
[Update 2023-04-28: The Sound Assistant app provides individual app volume control, AKA mixing, as well as other useful features]
Note: In this post I was deliberately pushing the envelope to see how well Android might perform at running a synth with external MIDI controller and audio out. In general iOS has many more MIDI music apps than Android, perhaps due to the complexities of supporting the hardware and software fragmentation of Android. Plus I picked a pretty complex configuration rather than a simpler audio mixer for the output of phone and keyboard say.
Back in the mid 1980s Atari STs met our MIDI needs by having built in MIDI ports. Later on, PC soundcards included MIDI adaptor sockets and now PCs and Macs support MIDI via USB. Better, there’s now loads of MIDI software for desktop including DAWs and even web browsers support Web MIDI.
But what about Android phones (I have no interest in or knowledge of iPhones)? They are easily more powerful than those original Atari boxes. And much more portable, if you can live with a touch interface on a small screen. Though of course there are also larger tablets and keyboards.
It turns out MIDI can work on Android though there are two main issues:
- Apps that support midi
- Connectivity
I thought I’d try a really simple MIDI setup to support my ear training using a MIDI keyboard triggering sounds on the phone. I need to sing along to audio files from the Improvise for Real (IFR) website (they can also be downloaded but I have a random selection web app) The setup is:
- Samsung Galaxy S22+
- AKAI MPK mini keyboard with USB-C to A adapter
- Mini Piano Pro app
- Audio tracks played with Firefox, my default browser
Not surprisingly, few apps in the Play store mention MIDI but the Mini Piano Pro app supports MIDI in. On receiving MIDI note messages it plays the selected sound and highlights the key on a virtual piano. That just works but, there’s no support for General Midi drum sounds for the pads even though the AKAI sends them on channel 10 as usual.
A couple of issues here:
- Phone is acting as USB host and powering the AKAI USB device, but is not powered itself
- Phone sound is rubbish
- No audio mixer for app levels, or volume controls on piano app or Firefox
I’ve yet to sort out a mixer but the sounds levels are just OK, fortunately.
For the power and sound, chucking some hardware at the problem should work:
- Headphones or powered speaker with wired aux for decent sound with low latency
- Anker 8195 USB-C to 3.5mm stereo adapter
- Hub providing power pass though to phone and USB ports for audio adapter and keybvoard
This works, mostly.
In practice this suffers from intermittent lack of sound until replugging leads brings it back.
The root cause appears to be the fact that like many phone manufacturers Samsung have ditched the 3.5mm analog audio jack, forcing us to use the single USB-C connector for audio, power and MIDI in.
I guess this is largely due to USB-C audio being a mess with many options including analog and digital audio and different versions of the specs. When you buy headphones or an USB-C to audio adapter you don’t know which options are available or being used and have no control over what’s going on.
With the Anker 8346 hub in the middle working sound is hit and miss. Perhaps as either the hub or the phone can be the USB host, depending on power to the hub, adding another level of complexity. I expect the audio is digital to the 3.5mm adapter in this config, which is preferable as the USB-C analog audio is probably low quality.
I found unplugging and plugging in leads from the hub or phone is required more often than not to get any sound out. For example plug in the audio adapter and phone to the hub and you get sound, until you plug in the power adapter to the hub. It seems pretty indeterminate to be honest. At least I’ve not found a sequence of connections that always works. It’s possible the phone is the problem by not expecting power in and audio out the same connector. Or perhaps having the hub in the middle breaks whatever detection is used for audio output. Or else it could be the switch from phone to hub as USB host.
I even updated my cheap-o USB-C audio adapter to an Anker one but it only improved things a little, maybe not at all given the intermittent nature of the issue.
This is manageable, if annoying. At some time I’ll try to dig into the USB-C spec and find tools to give some visibility on just what’s going on. For now I just swear a lot!
And this is only MIDI in. Having full bidirectional MIDI is probably going to be fun. I have ideas for a simple Web app to record MIDI.
PS. One good point is I tried this Web Midi test page in Chrome and it saw the incoming MIDI messages. Firefox still doesn’t work.

Overview
With Managed Monitoring as a Service, our Cloud Operations team monitors your devices, receiving and reacting to any abnormal events, only escalating those events that genuinely require your attention.
When we first provision the service, unless you specify otherwise in your initial request, we set the service up with default thresholds for the devices you've selected to monitor. At any time, you can raise a Service Request, via the My Calls section of the UKCloud Portal, to change these thresholds and other service configuration details.
This article shows you how to change your Managed Monitoring as a Service configuration.
Changing your service configuration
To make any changes to Managed Monitoring as a Service, log a Service Request via the My Calls section of the UKCloud Portal. For general information about raising a Service Request, see How to use My Calls in the UKCloud Portal.
To make changes, you'll need to fill in the appropriate details in the Managed IT Operations - Add or Remove Device spreadsheet (UKC-FRM-303) spreadsheet, which enables us to automate your requested changes. This is the same spreadsheet as the one you used to originally set up your service. The Service Request template includes a link to download the spreadsheet. When filling out the spreadsheet, ensure that you follow the instructions provided.

Defining the monitoring method
You can request to change the monitoring method used for any of your monitored devices.
The UKCloud monitoring system is capable of using either snmpv2c
or snmpv3
to perform the basic, standard template checks against an device. Alternatively, if the only checks required are performed remotely (such as ping, port checks, HTTP content checks and so on), you can use remote-only
.
Note
Do not select the monitoring-agent
method unless previously discussed and agreed with UKCloud.
In My Calls, raise a ticket using the Managed IT Operations - Make changes to my managed devices template.

The baseline subtraction function allows you to offset individual episodes so that the mean value over a specified window is zero. Consequently, it only affects the data of one channel, which must be selected in the dialogue box. Following this dialogue box, a vertical cursor will appear and you must indicate the region for baseline subtraction using two left mouse clicks. There are other ‘experimental’ baselining options, such as using two windows or subtracting fits to single or double exponentials fitted over specified regions; look carefully at the results to make sure that the program have achieved what you intended.

--- layout: posts title: Salary negotiation script example subhead: An example script for negotiating starting salary excerpt: Use this salary negotiation script example to plan for your salary negotiation. categories: - negotiate tags: - recommended - popular - blogFeatured date: 2017-04-30 author: josh published: true ---
Once you've responded to your job offer with a counter offer, the company will probably respond with something between your job offer and your counteroffer. That's your negotiation window. Your goal is to maximize your salary within that window.
Here's a salary negotiation counteroffer calculator you can use to determine your counter offer: Salary negotiation script and counter offer calculator
In this example the company has made an offer of $50,000, and you have countered at $56,000. Your negotiation window is now $50,000–$56,000. This sample salary negotiation script is your plan for hashing out the final details of your compensation package in the Final Discussion by first maximizing your base salary and then negotiating for additional benefits.
(Your Minimum Acceptable Salary is the underlined row.)
The company will discuss your counter internally and determine how much they can pay you. Then you will often have a quick phone call with the recruiter or hiring manager to determine your final salary and other benefits.
When the company responds to your counter, use this script to maximize your starting salary and benefits. For each step, if they accept your proposal, then you're finished. If they don't accept your proposal, go to the next step.
If they do not accept your first response, take the current salary as your base and request your highest-priority benefit. In this example, if the company comes back with $53,000, then you say "If you can do $54,000, I'm on board!"
If they stick with $53,000, then you would say, "I understand the best you can do is $53,000 and you can't come up to $54,000. If you can do $53,000 and offer an extra week of paid vacation each year, then I'm on board."
Regardless of whether they accept your response, then you're finished. You have maximized your base salary and maximized your benefits as well.
What's next once you've prepared your salary negotiation script?
I've changed the names and numbers, but this salary negotiation script example is based on a real script I used to negotiate starting salary.
Here are the steps I took after receiving a verbal job offer from the hiring manager:

Avoid placing the validation procedures only on the client side. All input should be validated server side.
Client-side validation is executed by the client and can be easily bypassed. Client-side validation is a major design problem when it appears in web applications. It places trust in the browser, an entity that should never be trusted.
If your application accepts input from the client, always validate for length, range and type on the server.
Client-side validation should only be used to improve user experience, never for security purposes. A client-side input validation check can improve application performance by catching malformed input on the client and, therefore, saving a roundtrip to the server. However, client side validation can be easily bypassed and should never be used for security purposes. Always use server-side validation to protect your application from malicious attacks.
Use the following steps when developing client side validation:
Never trust the browser. Because the browser is running on the user's machine, it can be fully controlled by the user. Therefore, any client-side validation code can be controlled and bypassed by an attacker.
Use JavaScript only to enhance your pages. JavaScript is useful for enhancing your application's presentation. However, it has no mechanism to protect the integrity of its code. Do not rely on JavaScript to enforce security decisions.
Place a server-side validator for all input. Input validation should be executed on the server side. Use the following steps to properly set the validation routines:
Identify input. Determine the data that is to be passed from the client to your application. Input can take the following forms on the client-side:
Understand the input. Understand the use and constraints associated with each input. Be clear how each input is used. Define the format and type of each input. Build a server-side validator for each format and type of expected input.
Create a set of validators. Build a validator for each type of input. Place the set of validators on the server-side of your application. If there are validators on the client-side, make sure the same validators are implemented on the server-side as well. Once developed, it is important to place the validation routines at your application's trust boundary. Because your application's trust boundary extends only to your application's process space, the user's browser should not be considered a part of your application's trust boundary.

To implement this functionality, called file change notification, a program must be able to detect what is happening to the relevant directory on the file system. One way to do so is to poll the file system looking for changes, but this approach is inefficient. It does not scale to applications that have hundreds of open files or directories to monitor.
The java.nio.file
package provides a file change notification API,
called the Watch Service API. This API enables you to register
a directory (or directories) with the watch service. When
registering, you tell the service which types of events you are
interested in: file creation, file deletion, or file modification.
When the service detects an event of interest, it is forwarded to the
registered process. The registered process has a thread (or a pool of
threads) dedicated to watching for any events it has registered for.
When an event comes in, it is handled as needed.
This section covers the following:
The WatchService
API is fairly low level, allowing you
to customize it. You can use it as is, or you can choose to create a
high-level API on top of this mechanism so that it is
suited to your particular needs.
Here are the basic steps required to implement a watch service:
WatchService
"watcher" for the file system.
WatchKey
instance for each directory that you register.
closed
method).
WatchKeys
are thread-safe and can be used with the
java.nio.concurrent
package.
You can dedicate a
thread pool to this effort.
Because this API is more advanced, try it out before proceeding. Save the
example to your computer, and compile it.
Create a WatchDir
test
directory that will be passed to the example.
WatchDir
uses a single thread to process all events,
so it blocks keyboard input while waiting for events.
Either run the program in a separate window, or in the background,
as follows:
java WatchDir test &
Play with creating, deleting, and editing files in the test
directory. When any of these events occurs, a message is printed to the console.
When you have finished, delete the test
directory and
WatchDir
exits. Or, if you prefer, you can manually kill the process.
You can also watch an entire file tree by specifying
the -r
option. When you specify -r
, WatchDir
walks the file tree, registering each directory with the watch service.
The first step is to create a new
WatchService
by using the
newWatchService
method in the FileSystem
class, as follows:
WatchService watcher = FileSystems.getDefault().newWatchService();
Next, register one or more objects with the watch service.
Any object that implements the
Watchable
interface can be registered.
The Path
class implements the Watchable
interface,
so each directory to be monitored is registered as a Path
object.
As with any Watchable
, the Path
class implements
two register
methods.
This page uses the two-argument version,
register(WatchService, WatchEvent.Kind<?>...)
.
(The three-argument version takes a WatchEvent.Modifier
,
which is not currently implemented.)
When registering an object with the watch service, you
specify the types of events that you want to monitor. The supported
StandardWatchEventKind
event types follow:
ENTRY_CREATE
– A directory entry is created.
ENTRY_DELETE
– A directory entry is deleted.
ENTRY_MODIFY
– A directory entry is modified.
OVERFLOW
– Indicates that events might have been lost or discarded.
You do not have to register for the OVERFLOW
event to receive it.
The following code snippet shows how to register a Path
instance for all three event types:
import static java.nio.file.StandardWatchEventKind.*; Path dir = ...; try { WatchKey key = dir.register(watcher, ENTRY_CREATE, ENTRY_DELETE, ENTRY_MODIFY); } catch (IOException x) { System.err.println(x); }
The order of events in an event processing loop follow:
poll
– Returns a queued key, if available.
Returns immediately with a null
value, if unavailable.
poll(long, TimeUnit)
– Returns a queued key, if one is available.
If a queued key is not immediately available,
the program waits until the specified time. The TimeUnit
argument determines whether the specified time is nanoseconds, milliseconds,
or some other unit of time.
take
– Returns a queued key.
If no queued key is available, this method waits.
List
of
WatchEvents
from the
pollEvents
method.
kind
method. No matter what events the key has registered for,
it is possible to receive an OVERFLOW
event.
You can choose to handle the overflow or ignore it,
but you should test for it.
context
method is used to retrieve it.
ready
state by invoking
reset
. If this method returns false
, the key is no longer valid and
the loop can exit.
This step is very important. If you fail to
invoke reset
, this key will not receive any further events.
A watch key has a state. At any given time, its state might be one of the following:
Ready
indicates that the key is ready to accept events.
When first created, a key is in the ready state.
Signaled
indicates that one or more events are
queued. Once the key has been signaled, it is no longer in the ready
state until the
reset
method is invoked.
Invalid
indicates that the key is no longer
active. This state happens when one of the following events occurs:
Here is an example of an event processing loop. It is taken from the
example, which watches a directory, waiting for new files to appear.
When a new file becomes available,
it is examined to determine if it is a Email
text/plain
file by using the
probeContentType(Path)
method. The intention is that text/plain
files will be emailed to
an alias, but that implementation detail is left to the reader.
The methods specific to the watch service API are shown in bold:
for (;;) { //wait for key to be signaled WatchKey key; try { key = watcher.take(); } catch (InterruptedException x) { return; } for (WatchEvent<?> event: key.pollEvents()) { WatchEvent.Kind<?> kind = event.kind(); //This key is registered only for ENTRY_CREATE events, //but an OVERFLOW event can occur regardless if events are //lost or discarded. if (kind == OVERFLOW) { continue; } //The filename is the context of the event. WatchEvent<Path> ev = (WatchEvent<Path>)event; Path filename = ev.context(); //Verify that the new file is a text file. try { //Resolve the filename against the directory. //If the filename is "test" and the directory is "foo", //the resolved name is "test/foo". Path child = dir.resolve(filename); if (!Files.probeContentType(child).equals("text/plain")) { System.err.format("New file '%s' is not a plain text file.%n", filename); continue; } } catch (IOException x) { System.err.println(x); continue; } //Email the file to the specified email alias. System.out.format("Emailing file %s%n", filename); //Details left to reader.... } //Reset the key -- this step is critical if you want to receive //further watch events. If the key is no longer valid, the directory //is inaccessible so exit the loop. boolean valid = key.reset(); if (!valid) { break; } }
The file name is retrieved from the event context. The
example retrieves the file name with this code:
Email
WatchEvent<Path> ev = (WatchEvent<Path>)event; Path filename = ev.context();
When you compile the Email
example, it generates the
following error:
Note: Email.java uses unchecked or unsafe operations. Note: Recompile with -Xlint:unchecked for details.
This error is a result of the line of code that casts the
WatchEvent<T>
to a WatchEvent<Path>
.
The
example avoids this error by creating a utility WatchDir
cast
method
that suppresses the unchecked warning, as follows:
@SuppressWarnings("unchecked") static <T> WatchEvent<T> cast(WatchEvent<?> event) { return (WatchEvent<Path>)event; }
@SuppressWarnings
syntax, see
Annotations.
The Watch Service API is designed for applications that need to be
notified about file change events.
It is well suited for any application, like an editor or IDE, that
potentially has many open files and needs to ensure that the files
are synchronized with the file system. It is also well suited for an
application server that watches a directory, perhaps waiting for .jsp
or .jar
files to drop, in order to deploy them.
This API is not designed for indexing a hard drive. Most file system implementations have native support for file change notification. The Watch Service API takes advantage of this support where available. However, when a file system does not support this mechanism, the Watch Service will poll the file system, waiting for events.
