Add Spotube to Homebrew
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Installation of Spotube on a Mac currently only is available by downloading the dmg from Github. It would be great to be able to use a package-manager (Homebrew) for this.
Describe the solution you'd like Add Spotube to Homebrew casks
Describe alternatives you've considered N/A
Additional context N/A
Literally have no idea about homebrew although have heard sometimes about it. Never been a user in the Apple Garden at all. So its kind of hard for me to deal with this. Also I don't own a Mac. So, kind of impossible I think since Apple has their so called "policy" of not even letting developers develop applications for their Platform without buying their products
I guess, it'd more viable if someone who owns a Mac maintains & publishes the homebrew stuff on behalf of this project
Hi there,
I wanted to add Spotube to Homebrew: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-cask/pull/145688 Unfortunately, the audit doesn't pass because of a missing signature. Is it possible to fix it?
audit for spotube: failed
- Signature verification failed:
/private/tmp/d20230423-3158-rup9bx/spotube.app: rejected
macOS on ARM requires software to be signed.
Please contact the upstream developer to let them know they should sign and notarize their software.
Error: 1 problem in 1 cask detected
Spotube macos is certainly missing signing. I'm unable to do that as it requirese access to XCode to generate certificates for the app

I have no experience with MacOS development but I suppose it should be possible to handle it in Github Action somehow, shouldn't it? It would also increase credibility of the whole Spotube in general.

And I can't issue a certificate without mac :'(
I might help in this step :) I will look at it
I've just added it into my tap https://github.com/homebrew-x/homebrew-x
Usage
brew install homebrew-x/x/spotube
@JounQin Thanks for taking action, although instead of making your own tap, it would be so much better if the signing issue could be solved.
@KRTirtho Who's building the binary and adding that to Github? The same person / process can sign the app for you.
it would be so much better if the signing issue could be solved.
Sure, but custom tap is much better for such non signed apps.
@KRTirtho can also host it as https://github.com/KRTirtho/homebrew-spotube for example, no signing required at all.
Here's an example of a Homebrew Cask tap hosted on GitHub.

@gmcinalli Didn't you see https://github.com/KRTirtho/spotube/issues/120#issuecomment-1876439571?
@JounQin Yes, sorry. Just wanted to help understand better with a very similar project.
I might help in this step :) I will look at it > [Feature] Install with brew #409
Sadly this is a Catch 22. Only someone @KRTirtho trusts should create the certificate so the private key stays secret. At the same time @KRTirtho does not have Mac.
The only solution I see is either: @KRTirtho adds a person he trusts to the project so they create the certificate for this app, or @KRTirtho gets his hands on some Mac.
btw. I found an article showing how to automate the signing process using GitHub Actions

Sounds like the best option to me, unless the certificate is created. btw. Thank you, @JounQin, for the Tap you've created.
@Kairixir don't worry pal. I can now create one since I've recently got a mac. I'll try to add it to homebrew and even get it notarized by Apple. I was just learning the new mac ecosystem for the past month. Otherwise, 3.4.1 would've been in homebrew 😄
TBH the new keyboard layout, it's killing me lol 🤣
Well I tried to create a Developer ID but unfortunately, Apple doesn't accept Bangladeshi developer account applications https://forums.developer.apple.com/forums/thread/127494 https://discussions.apple.com/thread/255363512
So I temporarily created a tap repository and everyone should be able to use it to install spotube through homebrew
$ brew tap krtirtho/apps
$ brew install --cask spotube
This issue can be closed, right?

Depends. Might still be open to track not needing a custom tap or other things
