CDO in Homebrew

Added by Carlos Moffat about 5 years ago

Hi,

CDO used to be available through the brewsci/homebrew-science tap in homebrew. That tap is now deprecated, and although a number of formulas have been migrated to the 'core' homebrew repository, CDO has not. I've forked the CDO formula and updated it to use the latest CDO version. These are the steps to install CDO v1.9.5 using homebrew:

brew tap moffat/sciencebits
brew install cdo

I'll continue to update this formula with new stable releases of CDO.

Best,
Carlos

Hi Ralf

Maybe worth updating the documentation here?

Hi Ralf,

I'm happy to report that CDO is back in the main homebrew repository so the instructions can be changed to simply

brew install cdo

Hi Ralf,

Yes you can update the instructions to what I posted earlier. There's no need for a maintainer other than the homebrew crew.

In Brew? Nice!

I will say that if you don't see things updating in brew when a new version is released, brew does have a subcommand that automatically makes a PR:

brew bump-formula-pr

subcommand (see https://github.com/Linuxbrew/brew/blob/master/docs/How-To-Open-a-Homebrew-Pull-Request.md#submit-a-new-version-of-an-existing-formula).

I used the cask variant recently to request an update to the Panoply cask to a new version:

brew bump-cask-pr --version 4.12.2 panoply

It was very slick and painless and I assume the formula version is just as simple to use.
