Let's see if we can get the elegance, simplicity, and speed of Homebrew for the
|
|
installation and management GUI Mac applications like Google Chrome and Adium.
|
|
|
|
`brew-cask` provides a friendly homebrew-style CLI workflow for the
|
|
administration of Mac applications distributed as binaries.
|
|
|
|
It's implemented as a `homebrew` "[external
|
|
command](https://github.com/mxcl/homebrew/wiki/External-Commands)" called
|
|
`cask`.
|
|
|
|
## Let's try it!
|
|
```sh
|
|
$ brew tap phinze/homebrew-cask
|
|
$ brew install brew-cask
|
|
$ brew cask install google-chrome
|
|
=> Downloading https://dl.google.com/chrome/mac/stable/GGRO/googlechrome.dmg
|
|
=> Success! google-chrome installed to /opt/homebrew-cask/Caskroom/google-chrome/stable-channel
|
|
=> Linking Google Chrome.app to /Users/phinze/Applications/Google Chrome.app
|
|
```
|
|
And there we have it. Google Chrome installed with a few quick commands; no clicking, no dragging, no dropping.
|
|
```sh
|
|
open ~/Applications/"Google Chrome.app"
|
|
```
