HTTPie on Homebrew, and Linuxbrew

Welcome to the documentation about packaging HTTPie for Homebrew.

  • If you do not know HTTPie, have a look here.
  • If you are looking for HTTPie installation or upgrade instructions on Homebrew, then you can find them on that page (that one 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

🚧 Work in progress.

First, update the current Formula:

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 will test the formula when downstream/mac/brew/httpie.rb is changed in a pull request.

Then, open a pull request with those changes to the downstream file.

Hacking

🚧 Work in progress.
