Homebrew formulae for installing Skycoin projects and dependencies on OS X.

Use the following commands to Tap the Homebrew repository

brew tap skycoin/homebrew-skycoin

Then install any of available Formulae. For instance execute this to install Skycoin CX to your system.

brew install skycoin-cx

The following process can be used to test changes made to formula:

1. Ensure the target formula has already been installed on your system. I will use skycoin-cx to demonstrate.
2. Fork this repo on Github and clone it locally to your machine.
3. Create a new branch for your changes.
4. Make your changes to the target formula and commit them.
5. Change directory into the skycoin-cx Homebrew

cd $(brew --repo skycoin/homebrew-skycoin)/Formula

6. Unlink the currently installed version of the formula with the following command:

brew unlink skycoin-cx

6. Copy your updated formula into the skycoin/homebrew-skycoin/Formula folder - replacing the exiting version
7. Test download of the new package from the Formula URL

brew fetch skycoin-cx

8. Test the installation using the new Formula (with verbose mode and based on the locally updated file)

brew install -vsd --git skycoin-cx

All going well, you should have just installed the updated version based on the new formula. If that is the case, submit a PR with your changes to the team for further review. If you encounter issue, repeat the process above until you are able to successfully install the based on the udpated version.
