Activate the environment: source env/bin/activate
Install dependencies: pip install -r requirements.txt

For development:

Run the program: python3 -m watcher

For production:

Copy config.ini.exampleto config.ini and set the proper parameters
Create an arec-watcher user
Install the systemd unit file: sudo cp arec-watcher.service /etc/systemd/system/
