These formulae provide binary installs for software that,
- Is not available in other package managers.
- Has a lot of dependencies thus is time-consuming when installing. E.g. mpv.
- Don't mess this up with homebrew's official homebrew-binary.
- This tap is for no-compiling fans like me. I really hate to install a bunch of dependencies just to compile one formula. Binaries are way cleaner for me.
brew install athrunsun/osxbinary/<formula>
Or brew tap athrunsun/osxbinary
and then brew install <formula>
.
Or install via URL (which will not receive updates):
brew install https://raw.githubusercontent.com/athrunsun/homebrew-osxbinary/master/Formula/<formula>.rb
brew help
, man brew
or check Homebrew's documentation.
