Homebrew Cookbook
This cookbook installs Homebrew and replaces MacPorts as the default package provider for the package resource on OS X systems.
This cookbook is now maintained by Opscode. The original author, maintainer and copyright holder is Graeme Mathieson. The cookbook remains licensed under the Apache License version 2.
Requirements
Prerequisites
In order for this recipe to work, your userid must own /usr/local
. This is outside the scope of the cookbook because it's anticipated that you'll run the cookbook as your own user, not root and you'd have to be root to take ownership of the directory. Easiest way to get started:
sudo chown -R `whoami`:staff /usr/local
Bear in mind that this will take ownership of the entire folder and its contents, so if you've already got stuff in there (eg MySQL owned by a mysql
user) you'll need to be a touch more careful. This is a recommendation from Homebrew.
Platform
- Mac OS X (10.6+)
The only platform supported by Homebrew itself at the time of this writing is Mac OS X. It should work fine on Server edition as well, and on platforms that Homebrew supports in the future.
Attributes
-
node['homebrew']['owner']
- The user that will own the Homebrew installation and packages. Setting this will override the default behavior which is to use the non-privileged user that has invoked the Chef run (or theSUDO_USER
if invoked with sudo). The default isnil
. -
node['homebrew']['auto-update']
- Whether the default recipe should automatically update homebrew each run or not. The default istrue
to maintain compatibility. Set to false or nil to disable. Note that disabling this feature may cause formula to not work. -
node['homebrew']['formulas']
- An Array of formula that should be installed using homebrew by default, used only in thehomebrew::install_formulas
recipe. -
node['homebrew']['casks']
- An Array of casks that should be installed using brew cask by default, used only in thehomebrew::install_casks
recipe.
Resources and Providers
package / homebrew_package
This cookbook provides a package provider called homebrew_package
which will install/remove packages using Homebrew. This becomes the default provider for package
if your platform is Mac OS X.
As this extends the built-in package resource/provider in Chef, it has all the resource attributes and actions available to the package resource. However, a couple notes:
- Homebrew itself doesn't have a notion of "upgrade" per se. The "upgrade" action will simply perform an install, and if the Homebrew Formula for the package is newer, it will upgrade.
- Likewise, Homebrew doesn't have a purge, but the "purge" action will act like "remove".
Examples
package 'mysql' do action :install end homebrew_package 'mysql' package 'mysql' do provider Chef::Provider::Package::Homebrew end
homebrew_tap
LWRP for brew tap
, a Homebrew command used to add additional formula repositories. From the brew
man page:
tap [tap] Tap a new formula repository from GitHub, or list existing taps. tap is of the form user/repo, e.g. brew tap homebrew/dupes.
Default action is :tap
which enables the repository. Use :untap
to disable a tapped repository.
Examples
homebrew_tap 'homebrew/dupes' homebrew_tap 'homebrew/dupes' do action :untap end
homebrew_cask
LWRP for brew cask
, a Homebrew-style CLI workflow for the administration
of Mac applications distributed as binaries. It's implemented as a homebrew
"external command" called cask.
Prerequisites
You must have the homebrew-cask repository tapped.
homebrew_tap 'caskroom/cask'
And then install the homebrew cask package before using this LWRP.
package "brew-cask" do
action :install
end
You can include the homebrew::cask
recipe to do this.
Examples
homebrew_cask "google-chrome"
homebrew_cask "google-chrome" do
action :uncask
end
Default action is :cask
which installs the Application binary . Use :uncask
to
uninstall a an Application.

Usage
We strongly recommend that you put "recipe[homebrew]" in your node's run list, to ensure that it is available on the system and that Homebrew itself gets installed. Putting an explicit dependency in the metadata will cause the cookbook to be downloaded and the library loaded, thus resulting in changing the package provider on Mac OS X, so if you have systems you want to use the default (Mac Ports), they would be changed to Homebrew.
The default itself ensures that Homebrew is installed and up to date.
