Kind: Homebrew formula

[vincepri]

After kind is released it'd be great to have a homebrew formula for macOS users to use to install kind. Definitely a nice to have :)

SGTM, cc @munnerz 👍

We definitely need to think more about releases and versioning, this would be great to have when we figure that out.

[BenTheElder]

We do have a minimal test release out, so this might actually be viable in the not incredibly distant future. :-)

Things that need to be done

• [ ] release binaries in zips, Homebrew is picky... see here
• [ ] writing formulae
• [ ] testing formulae
• [ ] Document usage

[alisondy]

Forked homebrew, you can find the cask I'm working on here

[zegl]

@alisondy Isn't "casks" only used for applications that are installed into /Applications? Binary applications can go into homebrew-core.

didn't know that, thank you for pointing that out, will check that out

[kaleocheng]

@alisondy you can follow the kubectl release in https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/master/Formula/kubernetes-cli.rb

[cblecker]

@alisondy Are you still working on this? If you're not, I can snap it up.

[alisondy]

Go for it 👍✨ @cblecker

[cblecker]

Okay, so the one issue I ran into as I'm going down the checklist is that kind isn't "stable". There's no green tagged, latest release; they're all pre-release.

So we can't quite submit a Formula yet for inclusion in homebrew-core.

I do have a tap with the Formula I made though: https://github.com/cblecker/homebrew-tap/blob/master/Formula/kind.rb

To install:

brew install cblecker/tap/kind

To view:

brew info cblecker/tap/kind
brew cat cblecker/tap/kind

Once we have a green, stable version, then we can submit it upstream to homebrew-core.

[cblecker]

@BenTheElder I updated this for 0.5.1.. is it the plan to keep releasing versions as "pre-release" for the time being?

[BenTheElder]

Sorry about that @cblecker, I will not mark v0.6 as prelease. I'm also trying to ensure we think about and finish landing obvious breaking changes before that drops this week.

[cblecker]

Sounds good. Please ping here when v0.6 drops and I can help submit my formula upstream to Homebrew.

[BenTheElder]

Thanks! Aiming for ASAP this week, just closing out some things in the
milestone :-)
