|
|
.SH "NAME"
|
|
\fBhomebrew\-cask\fR \- A friendly binary installer for OS X
|
|
.
|
|
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
|
|
\fBbrew cask\fR command [options] [\fItoken\fR \.\.\.]
|
|
.
|
|
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
|
|
Homebrew\-cask is a tool for installing precompiled OS X binaries (such as Applications) from the command line\. The user is never required to use the graphical user interface\.
|
|
.
|
|
.SH "ALPHA\-QUALITY SOFTWARE"
|
|
Homebrew\-cask works robustly enough that we welcome new users, but the project is still in early development\. That means command names, option names, and other aspects of this manual are still subject to change\.
|
|
.
|
|
.SH "FREQUENTLY USED COMMANDS"
|
|
.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fBinstall [\-\-force]\fR \fItoken\fR [ \fItoken\fR \.\.\. ]
|
|
Install Cask identified by \fItoken\fR\.
|
|
.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fBuninstall [\-\-force]\fR \fItoken\fR [ \fItoken\fR \.\.\. ]
|
|
Uninstall Cask identified by \fItoken\fR\.
|
|
.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fBsearch\fR \fItext\fR | /\fIregexp\fR/
|
|
Perform a substring search of known Cask tokens for \fItext\fR\. If the text is delimited by slashes, it is interpreted as a Ruby regular expression\.
|
|
.
|
|
.IP
|
|
The tokens returned by \fBsearch\fR are suitable as arguments for most other commands, such as \fBinstall\fR or \fBuninstall\fR\.
|
|

|
|
.
|
|
.TP

|
|
.
|
|
.IP
|
|

|
.
|
|

|
|
\fBinfo\fR or \fBabv\fR \fItoken\fR [ \fItoken\fR \.\.\. ]

|
.
|
|
.TP

|
|
Install the given Cask\. With \fB\-\-force\fR, re\-install even if the Cask appears to be already present\.
|
|
.
|
|
.IP
|
|
\fItoken\fR is usually the ID of a Cask as returned by \fBbrew cask search\fR, but see \fIOTHER WAYS TO SPECIFY A CASK\fR for variations\.
|
|
.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fBlist\fR or \fBls\fR [\-1 | \-l] [ \fItoken\fR \.\.\. ]
|
|

|
|
.
|
|
.IP
|
|
Note that \fBuninstall \-\-force\fR is currently imperfect\. It will follow the \fBuninstall\fR instructions from \fInewest\fR Cask definition, even if the given Cask has changed since you installed it\. The result is that \fBuninstall \-\-force\fR will always succeed in removing relevant files under \fB/opt/homebrew\-cask\fR, but will sometimes fail to remove relevant installed files outside of \fB/opt/homebrew\-cask\fR\. This issue is being addressed\.
|
|
.
|
|
.IP
|
|
\fBuninstall\fR without \fB\-\-force\fR is also imperfect\. It may be unable to perform an \fBuninstall\fR operation if the given Cask has changed since you installed it\. This issue is being addressed\.

|
|
.TP
|
|
\fBzap\fR \fItoken\fR [ \fItoken\fR \.\.\. ]

.SH "INTERACTION WITH HOMEBREW"
|
|
Homebrew\-cask is implemented as a external command for Homebrew\. That means this project is entirely built upon the Homebrew infrastructure\. For example, upgrades to the Homebrew\-cask tool are received through Homebrew: brew update && brew upgrade brew\-cask && brew cleanup && brew cask cleanup
|
|
.
|
|
.P
|
|
And updates to individual Cask definitions are received whenever you issue the Homebrew command: brew update
|
|
.
|
|
.SH "OTHER WAYS TO SPECIFY A CASK"
|
|
Most homebrew\-cask commands can accept a Cask token as an argument\. As described above, the argument can take the form of:
|
|
.
|
|
.IP "\(bu" 4
|
|
A token as returned by \fBbrew cask search\fR, \fIeg\fR \fBgoogle\-chrome\fR
|
|
.
|
|
.IP "" 0
|
|
.
|
|
.P
|
|
Homebrew\-cask also accepts three other forms in place of plain tokens:
|
|
.
|
|
.IP "\(bu" 4
|
|
A fully\-qualified token which includes the Tap name, \fIeg\fR \fBcaskroom/fonts/font\-symbola\fR
|
|
.
|
|
.IP "\(bu" 4
|
|
A fully\-qualified pathname to a Cask file, \fIeg\fR \fB/usr/local/Cellar/brew\-cask/0\.25\.0/Casks/google\-chrome\.rb\fR
|
|
.
|
|
.IP "\(bu" 4
|
|
A \fBcurl\fR\-retrievable URI to a Cask file, \fIeg\fR \fBhttps://raw\.github\.com/caskroom/homebrew\-cask/f54bbfaae0f2fa7210484f46313a459cb8a14d2f/Casks/google\-chrome\.rb\fR
|
|
.
|
|
.IP "" 0
|
|
.
|
|
.SH "ENVIRONMENT"
|
|
Homebrew\-cask respects many of the environment variables used by the parent command \fBbrew\fR\. Please refer to the \fBbrew\fR(1) man page for more information\.
|
|
.
|
|
.P
|
|
Environment variables specific to homebrew\-cask:
|
|
.
|
|
.TP
|
|
HOMEBREW_CASK_OPTS
|
|
This variable may contain any arguments normally used as options on the command\-line\. This is partiularly useful to make options persistent\. For example, you might add to your \.bash_profile or \.zshenv something like: \fBexport HOMEBREW_CASK_OPTS=\'\-\-appdir=/Applications \-\-caskroom=/etc/Caskroom\'\fR\.
