+# cocli example collections
+
+This is a collection of real-world cocli use cases.
+
+## Examples
+
+1. `watch-and-upload`: Watch a given folder and anytime a given file is moved or created in the folder, it will automatically upload the files to a given record split by hours.

+# Watch and upload
+
+Watch a given folder and anytime a new file is created(moved), it will be uploaded to a generated record based on hourly basis.
+
+The script will look up the local `.RECORD_LOGS` and try to find an existing record that has the following name convention. If nothing is found, it will
+create a new record and append the record id to the `.RECORD_LOGS` file
+
+```text
+auto-upload-$MM-$DD-$HH
+```
+
+Files that have already been uploaded will be saved to the `.UPLOAD_LOGS` with its corresponding hash. When we try to upload the file it will then
+look up the `.UPLOAD_LOGS` and skip if it already exists.
+
+## Prerequisite
+
+- Have cocli ready, refer to https://docs.coscene.cn/docs/cli/install
+- Have [fswatch](https://github.com/emcrisostomo/fswatch) ready for monitoring file changes
+
+## Usage
+
+```bash
+./watch-and-upload.sh -h # for help
+./watch-and-upload.sh /PATH/TO/THE/FOLDER # monitor the given folder
+./watch-and-upload.sh # monitor the current folder
+```
+
+## Improvements
+
+- [ ] Maybe look up for the cloud files for pre-uploaded files
+- [ ] Generate a report table
