Welcome to my pourhouse! This is my tap for some casks I wanted to automate the installation of. So far, I just have a hand-full completed and they're all from Howard Oakley over at Eclectic Light Co. in the Downloads section. There is a list below of the currently enabled applications and it’s corresponding token.

First you need Homebrew installed if you don’t already. To install open Terminal and paste the following:

/usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"

Verify everything installed correctly by running brew doctor then you can add my tap by running:

brew tap sticklerm3/pourhouse

This creates a shallow clone of sticklerm3/pourhouse to $(brew --repo)/Library/Taps/sticklerm3/pourhouse.

Then, you can continue to use brew cask install <formula> for anything unless for some reason theres another cask with the same name, simply identify the tap before the formula: brew cask install sticklerm3/pourhouse/<formula>

Or install via URL (which will not receive updates):

brew cask install https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Sticklerm3/homebrew-pourhouse/master/Casks/<formula>.rb

I’m still newer at writing formula/Ruby so bear with me here. The following are CLI utilities that are installed using brew cask as their binaries are already compiled. Use the same syntax to install as above (brew cask install alisma)

Update homebrew with brew update. Upgrade any updated formula and casks with brew cask upgrade.

If you frequently use the command line, it may be useful to create an alias for brew cask. Add the following to your .bashrc, .profile, .zshrc or wherever you keep your aliases for your shell:

alias cask='brew cask'

I have my own plugin for zsh of useful brew and brew cask aliases which can be found at sticklerm3/alehouse. See the projects Readme for installation and usage.

For more information on using the brew command run brew help or man brew or check Homebrew's documentation.

If you notice an error, have a contribution or an update, feel free to fork the repo & submit a pull request! If creating/updating a cask formula be sure it’s properly filled out and passes the tests. I created this tap as a place for awesome MacOS software that wasn’t included in the core cask repository, if you have any awesome MacOS applications that you think I should include, don’t be afraid to suggest it, or even better: fork me and create a pull request!
