Homebrew-epidemic

This is a private tap for Homebrew. Use it to distribute external tools required for development.

Using

Run the following commands to add this tap and install the epidemicsound toolchain.

brew tap epidemicsound/epidemicsound
brew install epidemicsound

To refresh the tap configuration force a brew update using HOMEBREW_AUTO_UPDATE_SECS. This is mainly needed during development of this tap.

HOMEBREW_AUTO_UPDATE_SECS=0 brew tap epidemicsound/epidemicsound

Adding more tools

  • Add the dependecy to Formula/e/epidemicsound.rb
  • Bump the revision to trigger upgrades without a new release
  • Force upgrade tap HOMEBREW_AUTO_UPDATE_SECS=0 brew tap epidemicsound/epidemicsound
  • Test the latest version brew upgrade epidemicsound
    • if it fails revert the PR to roll back to previous known state

Adding a missing Formula

If the tool you are using don' have a formula or cask then you can add one. In general you follow the homebrew guide but also pass --tap epidemicsound/epidemicsound to brew create.

Ex. protoc-gen-connect-go

  • brew create --go https://github.com/connectrpc/connect-go/archive/refs/tags/v1.16.2.tar.gz --tap epidemicsound/epidemicsound --set-name=protoc-gen-connect-go
    • the url refers to the source code release on github
    • --go emits a formula that builds go code
    • --set-name sets a name that matches the command
    • --tap epidemicsound/epidemicsound ouputs the formula in the epidemicsound tap
      • /opt/homebrew/Library/Taps/epidemicsound/homebrew-epidemicsound/Formula/protoc-gen-connect-go.rb
  • copy this formula into the Formula directory of this repo (with a corresponding prefix directory)
    • Formula/p/protoc-gen-connect-go
  • update the formula to build the cmd/protoc-gen-connect-go directory
  • add it as a depedency to the Formula/e/epidemicsound.rb and bump the revision
  • when a new version is released update the url of the formula
