Introducing the execution_checker gem

require 'execution_checker'

ec = ExecutionChecker.new '/home/james/execution_checker.xml'
ec.check 'dashboard'

The above example opens the Dynarex file execution_checker.xml, then checks the last modified date for a filepath associated with the tag called dashboard. If the last modified date is today's date then an SPS message is published to indicate success.

Here's how I created the Dynarex file for testing the above code:

require 'dynarex'

dx = Dynarex.new("entries[title, tags]/entry(tag, filepath, occurrence, success, failure)")

dx.create tag: 'dashboard', filepath: '/home/james/jamesrobertson.eu/dandelion_s1/yaml/dashboard.yaml'
dx.create tag: 'run', filepath: 'simple something'
dx.save '/home/james/execution_checker.xml'

I of course ensured that the dashboard.yaml file existed and was last modified today.
