Pinterest Homebrew Tap

This is a Homebrew tap for formulae for software developed by Pinterest

Setup

Using these formulae requires Homebrew, which in turn requires Xcode. If you have not yet installed Homebrew, a quick summary is at the end of this document.

Once homebrew is installed, simply run:

brew tap pinterest/tap

Use

To install software, just use brew install with the name of the formula. You may wish to run brew update before hand to get the latest version of the formulae. For example, to install the latest version of plank:

brew update
brew install plank

To upgrade software:

brew update
brew upgrade    # upgrade all software installed with Homebrew
brew upgrade plank # update just the plank formula

Contributing

Please file bug reports and feature requests as GitHub issues against the individual project, not this repository - however, we do accept pull requests here.

To do development on these formulae, first fork the repository on GitHub. Add your fork as a remote to your local clone:

cd $(brew --prefix)/Library/Taps/Pinterest/homebrew-tap
git remote add me git@github.com:YOUR_GITHUB_USERNAME/homebrew-tap.git
git fetch me

To propose changes, push to your fork (e.g. with git push me +master) and submit pull request on GitHub.

We follow Homebrew's standard coding style.

Appendix: overview of installing Homebrew

The Homebrew developers suggest installing Homebrew at /usr/local to maximize compatibility with existing software. To do so, follow the instructions on their website.

This author prefers /opt/homebrew, finding that it works well enough in practice and keeps a cleaner separation between other software which might use /usr/local. To install at /opt/homebrew, you can use:

sudo mkdir /opt/homebrew
sudo chown `whoami` /opt/homebrew
curl -sSLf -o homebrew-installer https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install
perl -pi -e s,/usr/local,/opt/homebrew, homebrew-installer
ruby homebrew-installer
rm homebrew-installer
echo '$PATH="/opt/homebrew/bin:/opt/homebrew/sbin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bashrc
