Summary
Congratulations on completing this detailed and informative chapter on working with system events in Go! This chapter has explored the crucial aspects of system events and signals, equipping you with the knowledge and skills required for effective management and response within Go programming.
We began by exploring the fundamental concepts of system events and signals. You learned about their various types and their significant role in software execution and inter-process communication.
Next, we looked at handling signals in Go using the os/signal package. You now understand the difference between synchronous and asynchronous signals and how they impact your Go applications.
You gained insights into task scheduling principles and practical implementation skills using Go’s goroutines and the time package.
Finally, we explored file monitoring with Inotify. You learned about this Linux kernel subsystem and how to implement it in Go to monitor filesystem events...
