json - Run upload and delete file on inotifywait notification -

i have looping script uploads file server , upon completion returns json object terminal on success assorted information file/upload.

is there way can have 2nd script running watches confirmation of upload can delete file locally?

edit: context looping script:

#monitor directory new files inotifywait -m -q -r -e moved_to --format '%f' /var/www/html/uploads/ | while read file #when new file detected, upload website curl -u <user:pass> -t /var/www/html/uploads/$file https://www.website.com done 

response on successful upload:

{ "meta": {     "code": 200 }, "results": {     "id": 122,     "sha1sum": "3fcdbdb04baa29ce695ff36af81eaac496364e82",     "status": "b" } } 

while ifs= read -r file;   curl \     --fail \     -u "$user:$pass" \     -t "/var/www/html/uploads/$file" \     https://www.website.com \     && rm -f "/var/www/html/uploads/$file" done < <(inotifywait -m -q -r -e moved_to --format '%f' /var/www/html/uploads/) 

key points:

• use curl --fail return successful exit status if upload accepted remote server; long exit status given in http header, opposed in meta section, there's no need parse json response.
• use && run rm command if curl exited successful status.
• quote expansions: $file should in double quotes, especially on curl command line, or else user can run arbitrary curl commands on server putting whitespace inside filenames.
• this still little broken, because inotifywait format uses newline delimiters, newlines valid inside filenames. unfortunately, hard avoid due design flaw in inotifywait, doesn't allow nul delimiters. other stackoverflow questions exist on subject, if want workaround secure against uploaded filenames literal newlines. see this reddit post example of attack using spoofed filename.
