inotifymask
===========
This tool sets up Linux kernel `inotify` hooks on a set of directories to apply
a bit mask to their permissions on file creation within or movement into the
watched directories, logging each permission change. This can be used as a way
to enforce permissions for uncooperative applications that don't allow
specifying permissions or masking.
Install
-------
You need Perl v5.10.1 or newer.
$ cpanm Const::Fast File::stat Linux::Inotify2
$ perl Makefile.PL
$ make
$ sudo make install
Use
---
$ inotifymask 0177 ~/.cache/private ~/.cache/private/templates
Works well as a user-level systemd service; see included `inotifymask.service`
template.
$ mkdir -p ~/.config/systemd/user
$ cp inotifymask.service ~/.config/systemd/user
$ vi ~/.config/systemd/user/inotifymask.service # Change command line to specify your paths
$ systemctl --user enable inotifymask.service
$ systemctl --user start inotifymask.service
$ systemctl --user status inotifymask.service
