Neovim-qt: Homebrew formula

Created on 5 Jun 2016 · 10Comments · Source: equalsraf/neovim-qt

Hey there, just want to let you guys know that I wrote a Homebrew formula for Neovim-Qt.

It's located at https://github.com/gwerbin/homebrew-tap/blob/master/Formula/neovim-qt.rb, and you can install it as follows:

brew tap gwerbin/tap
brew install --HEAD gwerbin/tap/neovim-qt

@gwerbin just a suggestion, perhaps you could put it in https://github.com/neovim/homebrew-neovim if the neovim maints agree, then it could be installed from the same tap as neovim itself.

If not then perhaps @equalsraf could create a neovim-qt github org.

In any case, a note in the README.md with install instructions would be good.

And yeah I haven't forgotten about creating an .app bundle at least entirely, I've been doing random other stuff and life has been difficult, sorry.

FYI: there is now a versioned installation: brew install gwerbin/tap/neovim-qt will install the latest tagged release (v0.2.0 as of right now).

I can't guarantee I'll be able to keep it up to date but I will gladly accept pull requests for version bumps. And if someone else wants to copy the formula and take ownership, let me know so I can take mine down.

@gwerbin many thanks for this

I'm struggling with this on macOS Sierra.

==> Caveats
We agreed to the Qt opensource license for you.
If this is unacceptable you should uninstall.

This formula is keg-only, which means it was not symlinked into /usr/local.

Qt 5 conflicts Qt 4

Generally there are no consequences of this for you. If you build your
own software and it requires this formula, you'll need to add to your
build variables:

    LDFLAGS:  -L/usr/local/opt/qt5/lib
    CPPFLAGS: -I/usr/local/opt/qt5/include
    PKG_CONFIG_PATH: /usr/local/opt/qt5/lib/pkgconfig


.app bundles were installed.
Run `brew linkapps qt5` to symlink these to /Applications.
