rsdns

Would you consider making this available via homebrew, or allowing someone to contribute the formula to do so?

Good idea 👍

I'm a homebrew user but have never submitted; formula suggestion/contribution welcomed. I'll have a read of their documentation to see if there are any standards/prerequ's rsdns needs to meet.

One thing that concerns me is that I have never finished the output and the raw JSON is messy for publication to an audience as wide as homebrew; I'll create an issue to nag myself to do it.

Homebrew dependencies:

• [x] #29 47165cf40c7cfcadeb29da580a6848ff9fd175a2
• [X] #30 Unit Tests! ee1d9c758176f6dc20e794332a97d26f21482b43

Version 4.0 tagged, IMHO this is good enough for packaging/distribution.

I had some fun last night playing with my first homebrew formula, and put this up this morning:

Thanks for your efforts 👍 🆒

Do you have any suggestions/ideas for making rsdns easier to package?

The only feedback I can give is what I said in the pull request to homebrew, it's a web of shell scripts that all make assumptions about their relative location to each other, and such assumptions aren't always safe to make one distro to another. It works out fine for a mildly savvy human downloading and using the rsdns, but packaging in any distro expects things to conform to some (usually UNIX based) philosophies.
