[outline] Update CI to bump Homebrew formula about bob

[MordechaiHadad]

I'll setup those just for the sake of learning and future projects, ig,

[MordechaiHadad]

🤔 so how should i go about doing this, since i dont really have access to getting those hashes from a formula

I'm pretty sure brew bump-formulae <url> will attempt to auto-determine the sha256 (which is the only one you need) of the given URL. So for example, you might call it from within a github action after the release has been published, at which point you could pass the URL of the newly-tagged release's .tar.gz. Then (within the workflow) brew bump-formulae would presumably download that .tar.gz, calculate the sha256 for you, then auto-commit and make the pull request to homebrew-core for you (i'm a bit fuzzy on the last step as i've never done it myself)

Oh this is cool

[MordechaiHadad]

@Amar1729 review #167 if it seems fine to you

[MordechaiHadad]

Oh shit epic contributors, I'd still try the other bump formula next release.

[MordechaiHadad]

Oh that's cool, tbh I didn't even bother with GH releases maybe I should now

[Amar1729]

FWIW i think homebrew generally prefers to install things from Github releases, so could be good to at least push tags for releases.

As far as the CI, might not actually be worth it to you to automate the whole thing if releases are relatively infrequent (relevant xkcd)

What exactly is this part in bump-formulae:

    formulae: |
      FORMULA-1
      FORMULA-2
      FORMULA-3

[Amar1729]

That's a constraint on which specific formulae to bump. so you could write just bob

[MordechaiHadad]

so just:

formulae: bob

?

[MordechaiHadad]

@Amar1729 So basically all i have to put in this is just:

- name: Bump formulae
  uses: Homebrew/actions/bump-formulae@master
  with:
    # Custom GitHub access token with only the 'public_repo' scope enabled
    token: ${{secrets.TOKEN}}
    # Bump only these formulae if outdated
    formulae: bob

This is either too easy or the docs kinda suck

[Amar1729]

@MordechaiHadad lol, I think so? but you'll also want a thing right before that that creates the release of you didn't do that already

[MordechaiHadad]

Ye working on that, want to make sure the release CD I am gonna make is sync so first it uploads release and then it runs the bump formulae thing

Currently its already past 10 minutes 🤣

[MordechaiHadad]

2 hours now jesus

[Amar1729]

Huh ... well that's not good, lmao

[Amar1729]

Alternatively, could remove the homebrew step; the maintainers + top contributors to homebrew-core are usually pretty quick about updating the formulae in core already Homebrew/homebrew-core#155610
