Homebrew install support
Imported from GitHub feature request. Source issue: #204 Support on Homebrew / brew.sh - macOS package manager — https://github.com/refactoringhq/tolaria/issues/204 Original context from GitHub: Get added as a Homebrew Cask - at brew.sh . We can follow instructions at https://docs.brew.sh/Adding-Software-to-Homebrew PR a .rb file into https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-cask/tree/main/Casks/t with with the GitHub URL of the released .dmg Additional context from comments: @prodrigues1912: Some context that might help whoever picks this up: Pre-release status. All current Tolaria releases are marked as pre-release (alpha builds, several per day). homebrew/homebrew-cask prefers stable releases, and homebrew-cask-versions — which used to host betas — was deprecated and archived in 2024. brew audit tends to flag alpha/pre-release artifacts, so a PR today would likely be rejected. Two paths that usually work better in this situation: Self-hosted tap (e.g. refactoringhq/homebrew-tolaria ). Users install with brew install --cask refactoringhq/tolaria/tolaria . Full control over alpha cadence, and easy to migrate to the official tap later without breaking existing installs. Wait for a stable release channel and submit that to homebrew/homebrew-cask . Asset format. The issue mentions a .dmg , but current releases ship Tolaria.app.tar.gz plus a Sparkle-style .sig . A cask can reference a .tar.gz directly, so that works — it's mostly a question of whether to add a .dmg build step or keep the tarball as the canonical asset. Sparkle. If the app ships Sparkle auto-update, Homebrew usually wants it either disabled in the cask build or noted in caveats , since users expect brew upgrade to be the update path. Would love to see this land too.
