Homebrew package for Mac #126

Open andmos opened 5 years ago

andmos commented 5 years ago

👋 Hi guys,

Would be cool if there was created a Homebrew package for macOS to make the installation easy as brew install dbxcli

Keep up the good work!

Not official, but this homebrew package worked pretty well for me.

Bumping this- please create an official homebrew package.

Another bump!

Thanks for posting my Homebrew tap. My question for you: what do you consider an "official" Homebrew formula?

  1. is it a custom tap maintained by Dropbox? (which is as easy as forking my tap)
  2. is it a submission to Homebrew core – where it would be maintained by the community

Take note that the latter has some requirements outlined on the Acceptable Formulae page. I'm not sure if dbxcli meets those requirements.

The software in question must:

  • ❌ be maintained (i.e. the last release wasn’t ages ago, it works without patching on all Homebrew-supported OS versions and has no outstanding, unpatched security vulnerabilities)
  • ❌ be stable (e.g. not declared “unstable” or “beta” by upstream)
  • ✅ be known (e.g. GitHub repositories should have >=30 forks, >=30 watchers or >=75 stars)
  • 🤔 be used
  • ❌ have a homepage

(Emojis added by myself)

And lastly: since this project unfortunately looks stale, you might be interested in using maestral-cli instead.
