Welcome to the documentation about **packaging HTTPie for Homebrew**.
- If you do not know HTTPie, have a look [here](https://httpie.io/cli).
- If you are looking for HTTPie installation or upgrade instructions on Homebrew, then you can find them on [that page](https://httpie.io/docs#homebrew) ([that one](https://httpie.io/docs#linuxbrew) for Linuxbrew).
- If you are looking for technical information about the HTTPie packaging on Homebrew, then you are in a good place.
## About
This document contains technical details, where we describe how to create a patch for the latest HTTPie version for Homebrew. They apply to Linuxbrew as well.
We will discuss setting up the environment, installing development tools, installing and testing changes before submitting a patch downstream.
## Overall process
:construction: Work in progress.
First, update the current Formula:
```bash
make brew-deps
# Copy-paste content into downstream/mac/brew/httpie.rb
git add downstream/mac/brew/httpie.rb
git commit -s -m 'Update brew formula to XXX'
```
That [GitHub workflow](https://github.com/httpie/httpie/actions/workflows/test-package-mac-brew.yml) will test the formula when `downstream/mac/brew/httpie.rb` is changed in a pull request.
