make rbbedit available via homebrew

Open pascalpp opened this issue 10 years ago • 3 comments

Have you considered making rbbedit available via homebrew? I'm not sure what's involved, but homebrew is a popular tool for installing cmd-line utilities on OS X these days.

http://brew.sh/

Nope, hadn't thought about it, nor do I know what is involved to include it. Yes, I know homebrew and think it would be a good idea.

Are you offering to help? ;-)

I could try. I've never created a homebrew formula before, but let me put these links here for later reference: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/wiki/Formula-Cookbook https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/blob/master/Library/Formula/git.rb

I had a brief look at those. I'm certainly not against submitting a homebrew formula, but I doubt I'll have to tuits for it myself. None of the machine I want rbbedit for are osx.

I install using the command:

wget -O /usr/local/bin/rbbedit https://github.com/cngarrison/rbbedit/raw/master/rbbedit && \
chmod 755 /usr/local/bin/rbbedit

I also create an .rbbedit file:

echo 'bbedit_ssh_user="osx_username"' >> ~/.rbbedit

Please feel free to fork this repo, create the homebrew formula, and submit a pull request.
