Homebrew Bundle Extensions

Homebrew Bundle Extensions adds command extensions to Homebrew that allow for easy modification of brew bundles.

Installation

Install Homebrew first if it isn't already installed, then run:

brew tap superatomic/bundle-extensions

Alternatively, you can add homebrew-bundle-extensions to your Brewfile by adding this line:

tap "superatomic/bundle-extensions"

Commands

• brew add [FORMULA/CASK...]

  Intelligently adds one or more provided formulae and/or casks to a Brewfile.

  You can specify multiple formulae and casks at once, just like the brew install command.

  To use single quotes instead of double quotes for Brewfile lines (e.g. brew 'bat' instead of brew "bat"), set the environment variable HOMEBREW_BUNDLE_QUOTE_TYPE to the value single.

  To add a descriptive comment above each line (like brew bundle dump --describe), use the --describe option. This is enabled by default if the environment variable HOMEBREW_BUNDLE_DUMP_DESCRIBE is set.

• brew drop [FORMULA/CASK...]

  Removes one or more provided formulae and/or casks from a Brewfile.

  You can specify multiple formulae and casks at once, just like the brew uninstall command.

• brew file

  Opens the Brewfile in the default editor (respects the chosen homebrew editor).

  Configure by setting $HOMEBREW_EDITOR or $EDITOR.

• brew view

  Displays the Brewfile. Uses bat instead of cat if $HOMEBREW_BAT is set.

All commands support specifying a Brewfile's location using --file, --global, or by setting the $HOMEBREW_BUNDLE_FILE environment variable.
