Can't install via Brewfile #147

Closed cmer closed 3 years ago

cmer commented 3 years ago

As you know, Homebrew expects the Github repo to be called username/homebrew-package. To around this, you advise to tap as such: brew tap cantino/mcfly https://github.com/cantino/mcfly.

However, in Brewfile, we cannot specify a URL for taps, which makes it impossible to automate the installation of McFly with a Brewfile.

I have created a separate repo that solves this problem. Would you consider "adopting" my repo as the official way to install McFly with Homebrew?

Hey @cmer, thanks, I didn't realize this. Are you okay if I copy the pattern to my username?

cmer commented 3 years ago

Of course. Steal the whole thing!

cmer commented 3 years ago

Which, I stole from you, by the way. 😂

cantino commented 3 years ago

Thanks!

What does the Brewfile line look like for the repo named cantino/homebrew-mcfly?

cmer commented 3 years ago 
tap 'cantino/mcfly'
brew 'mcfly'
cantino commented 3 years ago

So tap 'cantino/mcfly' implies a request to cantino/homebrew-mcfly, I gather.

cmer commented 3 years ago

Correct.

cantino commented 3 years ago

Okay, this is done! I'm keeping it in both places so the old style of install works too.
