If I understood your code well enough, then you just need to pass the
files found by fswatch to the following (untested) shellscript:
-------<shellscript.sh>-------------
#!/bin/bash
filename="$(basename "$1")"
terminal-notifier -message "s3cmd Upload '$filename' started"
s3cmd put "$1" s3://bucket/ 2>&1 \
| tee /path/to/logfile \
| >(mail -s "Upload '$filename'" [email protected]) \
&& terminal-notifier -message "s3cmd Upload of '$filename' done"
-------</shellscript.sh>----------
I also removed the redundant invocation of the 2nd tee(1) in the above.
Then you could the following command into another schell script
which you could then pass on the "script -dmS ...."
$ fswatch -0 -Ie '.*\.*$' -i '.*\.mp4$' /path/to/folder \
| xargs -0 -n 1 /path/to/shellscript.sh
Of course, "set -x" and "xargs -t" are your friends here, too. ;-)
Have a nice day,
Berny
