# File system notifications for Go
[![GoDoc](https://godoc.org/github.com/fsnotify/fsnotify?status.svg)](https://godoc.org/github.com/fsnotify/fsnotify) [![Go Report Card](https://goreportcard.com/badge/github.com/fsnotify/fsnotify)](https://goreportcard.com/report/github.com/fsnotify/fsnotify)
fsnotify utilizes [golang.org/x/sys](https://godoc.org/golang.org/x/sys) rather than `syscall` from the standard library. Ensure you have the latest version installed by running:
```console
go get -u golang.org/x/sys/...
```
Cross platform: Windows, Linux, BSD and macOS.

## API stability
fsnotify is a fork of [howeyc/fsnotify](https://godoc.org/github.com/howeyc/fsnotify) with a new API as of v1.0. The API is based on [this design document](http://goo.gl/MrYxyA).
All [releases](https://github.com/fsnotify/fsnotify/releases) are tagged based on [Semantic Versioning](http://semver.org/). Further API changes are [planned](https://github.com/fsnotify/fsnotify/milestones), and will be tagged with a new major revision number.
Go 1.6 supports dependencies located in the `vendor/` folder. Unless you are creating a library, it is recommended that you copy fsnotify into `vendor/github.com/fsnotify/fsnotify` within your project, and likewise for `golang.org/x/sys`.
