README

👌 brew-install

A node script to improve the brew install experience and allow to install specific versions of packages.

Note this is a very naive implementation so it might not work all the time and it is meant for personal usage only.

Install

npm i -g brew-install

Usage

Install the latest version of a package

brew-install elixir

This is an alias for brew install.

Install a specific version of a package

brew-install elixir@1.7.1

List all* the avaliable version of a package

brew-install --ls elixir
  • brew-install looks at the git history and uses the commit messages to determine the available versions - I warned you that this is a very naive implementation.
