### Watches
A watch connects the *path* to an *event_map*. Automatically add a watch on each sub-directories in *path* if *rec* is set to True. If *auto_add* is True, a watch will be added automatically on newly created sub-directories in *path*.
A watch connects the *path* to an *event_map*. Automatically add a watch on each sub-directories in *path* if *rec* is set to True. If *auto_add* is True, a watch will be added automatically on newly created sub-directories in *path*. All events for paths matching one of the regular expressions in *exclude_filter* are ignored. If the value of *exclude_filter* is a string, it is assumed to be a path to a file from which the list of regular expressions will be read.
```python
# Add a watch directly to Pyinotifyd.
pyinotifyd.add_watch(
path="/src_path",
event_map=event_map,
rec=False,
auto_add=False)
auto_add=False,
exclude_filter=["^/src_path/subpath$"])
# Or instantiate and add it
w = Watch(
path="/src_path",
event_map=event_map,
rec=False,
auto_add=False)
auto_add=False,
exclude_filter=["^/src_path/subpath$"])
pyinotifyd.add_watch(watch=w)
