/etc/hotplug/usb/usb-storage
That runs a script in my home directory, the fetching parts of which are:
mount /mnt/camera/
TODAY=$(date +%Y%m%d)
mkdir ~/photos/$TODAY
if cp -va $(find /mnt/camera/ -type f -name "*pg") ~/photos/$TODAY/; then
rm -rf /mnt/camera/*
echo "Fetch completed, camera flushed"
# spawn indexing script here
else
echo "Fetch failed, maybe partial results in ~/photos/$TODAY/"
# pop up error dialog here, `wall' would do
fi
umount /mnt/camera
Of course, the echoes are only useful if it's run by hand. I suppose I could
pop up a dialog on error. /etc/fstab says of /mnt/camera:
/dev/sda1 /mnt/camera vfat user,noexec,nodev,noauto 0 0
The only mention in /etc/modules.conf is a passing one defining my USB
controller, the rest is automagically sorted out by the USB service:
alias usb-interface usb-ohci
