Yarn: Homebrew latest version is still 1.7.0

[vfonic]

brew info yarn outputs this:

yarn: stable 1.7.0
JavaScript package manager
https://yarnpkg.com/
Conflicts with:
hadoop (because both install yarn binaries)
/usr/local/Cellar/yarn/1.7.0 (14 files, 4.2MB)
Built from source on 2018-07-03 at 15:08:58
From: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/master/Formula/yarn.rb

From what I can see in this repo, latest stable yarn release is 1.8.0.
The official docs for macOS suggest to use brew (as first option) to install yarn:
https://yarnpkg.com/en/docs/install#mac-stable

Would be good to keep that installation method up-to-date.

Thanks! <3

Hi!
As you can see here v1.8.0 is only _pre-release_. Also v1.8.0 has at least one bug that at least make it's unusable for our project. Just wait for v1.8.1 or v1.9.0! Also https://yarnpkg.com/ says the latest version is 1.7.0.

Ah, I had no idea v1.8.0 is a pre-release.

I'm not used to minor version increases to be pre-releases. I guess it
makes sense.

Yeah, currently we don't push RC/prerelease versions to Homebrew. You can install RC versions using the instructions on the site.

Hello!! According to Yarn's official website, 1.9.2 is the latest stable version.
I think it's time to update homebrew's formulae 🙂

[vivekchauhan]

@abdelkrimdev The formula is updated in brew with version 1.9.2

I had to do a reinstall of yarn to get it to reflect the latest version (macOS).

I ran npm uninstall -g yarn and brew uninstall yarn (didn't remember how I installed it). Then ran brew install yarn.

@kapoko So weird, even after npm uninstall -g yarn and brew uninstall yarn it still says i have yarn version 1.3.2 on yarn -version. Do you have any advice?

[Daniel15]

@mesqueeb Try whereis yarn and see which version of Yarn is being used. Perhaps you installed it both via the installation script and via Homebrew.

[mesqueeb]

@Daniel15 Thanks! I found the problem.
I had it installed 1 time via Homebrew and one time via npm -g i hahaha

@kapoko you are a life-saver!!!
I ran brew uninstall --force yarn, brew uninstall --force node, nvm uninstall yarn and nvm uninstall node
Then I installed node and yarn using nvm.
create-react-app is working perfectly now 🤩
