brew-pkg's Introduction

brew-pkg

brew-pkg is a Homebrew external command that builds an OS X installer package from a formula. The formula must first already be installed on the system.

Usage

Assuming nginx is already installed:

brew pkg nginx

==> Creating package staging root using Homebrew prefix /usr/local
==> Staging formula nginx
==> Plist found at homebrew.mxcl.nginx, staging for /Library/LaunchDaemons/homebrew.mxcl.nginx.plist
==> Building package nginx-1.2.6.pkg

It can also automatically include the formula's dependencies:

brew pkg --with-deps --without-kegs ffmpeg

==> Creating package staging root using Homebrew prefix /usr/local
==> Staging formula ffmpeg
==> Staging formula pkg-config
==> Staging formula texi2html
==> Staging formula yasm
==> Staging formula x264
==> Staging formula faac
==> Staging formula lame
==> Staging formula xvid
==> Building package ffmpeg-1.1.pkg

By default behaviour brew pkg include all package kegs located in /usr/local/Cellar/packagename. If you need to exclude it, specify option --without-kegs

Installing it

brew-pkg is available from my formulae tap. Add the tap:

brew tap timsutton/formulae

Then install as any other formula:

brew install brew-pkg

Extras

If a formula has defined a launchd plist, brew-pkg will also install this to the package's root in /Library/LaunchDaemons.

You can also define a custom identifier prefix in the reverse-domain convention with the --identifier-prefix option, ie. brew pkg --identifier-prefix org.nagios nrpe. If there is a launchd plist defined, this same prefix is currently not applied to the plist.

You can set the path to custom preinstall and postinstall scripts with the --scripts option which is just literally passed through to the pkgbuild command.
For more information refer to man pkgbuild which explains that --scripts scripts_path archive the entire contents of scripts-path as the package scripts. If this directory contains scripts named preinstall and/or postinstall, these will be run as the top-level scripts of the package [...].

"Calling bottle "unneeded is deprecated!" when tapping formulae

When installing brew-pkg, I got this message on Terminal:

Warning: Calling bottle :unneeded is deprecated! There is no replacement.
Please report this issue to the timsutton/formulae tap (not Homebrew/brew or Homebrew/core):
  /usr/local/Homebrew/Library/Taps/timsutton/homebrew-formulae/pngout.rb:7

Couldnt see an issue previously reported / closed & its more for visibility than show stopping.

Missing or wrong installation of dependencies

I'm trying to build a package for ClamAV. Here is what I do for building:

$ brew pkg --with-deps clamav
==> Creating package staging root using Homebrew prefix /usr/local
==> Staging formula clamav
==> Staging directory /usr/local/Cellar/clamav/0.103.0
==> Staging formula pkg-config
==> Staging directory /usr/local/Cellar/pkg-config/0.29.2_3
==> Staging formula gdbm
==> Staging directory /usr/local/Cellar/gdbm/1.18.1_1
==> Staging formula [email protected]
==> Staging formula readline
==> Staging directory /usr/local/Cellar/readline/8.0.4
==> Staging formula sqlite
==> Staging directory /usr/local/Cellar/sqlite/3.33.0
==> Staging formula xz
==> Staging directory /usr/local/Cellar/xz/5.2.5
==> Staging formula [email protected]
==> Staging formula sphinx-doc
==> Staging formula cmake
==> Staging formula json-c
==> Staging directory /usr/local/Cellar/json-c/0.15
==> Staging formula libiconv
==> Staging directory /usr/local/Cellar/libiconv/1.16
==> Staging formula libtool
==> Staging directory /usr/local/Cellar/libtool/2.4.6_2
==> Staging formula pcre2
==> Staging directory /usr/local/Cellar/pcre2/10.35
==> Staging formula autoconf
==> Staging directory /usr/local/Cellar/autoconf/2.69
==> Staging formula automake
==> Staging directory /usr/local/Cellar/automake/1.16.2_1
==> Staging formula jansson
==> Staging directory /usr/local/Cellar/jansson/2.13.1
==> Staging formula libmagic
==> Staging directory /usr/local/Cellar/libmagic/5.39
==> Staging formula protobuf
==> Staging formula protobuf-c
==> Staging directory /usr/local/Cellar/protobuf-c/1.3.3_2
==> Staging formula yara
==> Staging directory /usr/local/Cellar/yara/4.0.2
==> Building package clamav-0.103.0.pkg

But those are the results after running ClamAV:

$ clamdscan    
dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/local/opt/[email protected]/lib/libssl.1.1.dylib
  Referenced from: /usr/local/bin/clamdscan
  Reason: image not found
zsh: abort      clamdscan

I tried it on a fresh macOS 10.15 virtual image. If I install it using brew install clamav, it works as expected:

$ brew install clamav

Any idea of what I'm doing wrong or why the openssl dependency is not installed properly?

incomplete package with git

Hi !
Building pkg for git formula creates package without some necessary git resources.
Packages contains dirs:

.
└── usr
└── local
├── Library
├── bin
├── etc
├── lib
├── libexec
└── share

when git wants some other files:

Failed to perform checkout on agent: '/usr/local/bin/git init --bare' command failed.
stdout: Initialized empty Git repository in /Users/teamcity/buildAgent/system/git/git-3DEC8E2F.git/
stderr: warning: templates not found /usr/local/Cellar/git/2.0.4/share/git-core/templates

Obviously, package should contain /usr/local/Cellar/git too.

Create a package for a different (older) macOS version?

Is it possible to create a package for an older macOS version on a computer running a newer macOS version?

No open source license

Tim:

brew-pkg does not appear to have a license. Could you add one? (we'd like to use it, but can't without an acceptable open source license)

brew pkg fails with undefined method

Hello! I recently installed brew pkg and am experiencing the below error every time I try to use the package. Any idea what's going on here?

brew pkg tnef
With and without --with-deps and --without-kegs. All of them fail with that same sort of error.

/usr/local/Cellar query

Hello!

As per README.md:

By default behaviour brew pkg include all package kegs located in /usr/local/Cellar/packagename.

I've built some pkgs with brew pkg that don't seem to function as I'd expect, with errors indicating that the required files at /usr/local/Cellar do not exist. For example, I built a package for the the document converter Pandoc as follows:

[me@host] ~ > brew install pandoc

My understanding is that brew pkg includes the package kegs from /usr/local/Cellar for the given formula, but this doesn't seem to be the case in my testing. Have I done something wrong with my initial packaging?

Thanks,

brew pkg with saltstack

Hi Tim

I am trying to use brew pkg --with-deps on saltstack
It creates the pkg but seems to not pull in python and has the path set incorrectly, maybe i am doing something wrong

Any help would be great

Thanks

set path for package

I tried to used to package a brew one to distribute to other mac.

When I do brew pkg --with-deps --identifier-prefix org.pass pass
==> Creating package staging root using Homebrew prefix /Users/USER/usr/local

Because my brew is installed on /Users/USER.

How to fix this ? How can I set the install path so the other machines will installed in their /Users/USER2 prefix ?

Package local formula

I have installed encfs using a local formula with the following command:

$ brew install contrib/encfs.rb

but I am not able to package this using brew-pkg:

$ brew pkg --with-deps contrib/encfs.rb
==> Creating package staging root using Homebrew prefix /usr/local
Error: No available formula with the name "encfs"

LaunchDaemon path created within brew prefix instead of at /Library/LaunchDaemons

Is it possible to support creating a pkg from a cask?

I have several packages I need to package up for deployment on student computers and all but one of them is a normal Homebrew recipe. One of them is a cask. So brew-pkg won't package that last one.

Is it possible to support casks? Am I maybe missing something painfully obvious about casks and there's another way to do it?

Thanks in advance.

clamAV

Hi Tim,

I'm hoping to use your brew-pkg tool to make a clamav install package with no dependancy of brew being installed on the client endpoints.

I've stumbled across this project via: https://www.jamf.com/jamf-nation/discussions/6999/deploying-homebrew-through-casper
while looking for a way to install brew silently, and you raise a valid point about not going wild and installing brew everywhere.

I'm new to scripting, forgive me if I'm posting in the wrong section.

While first attempts resulted in an error saying it couldn't access the /var/folders location
I'm not sure whats different now, because I've been able to run $ brew pkg --with-deps --without-kegs --identifier-prefix org.TESTING clamav

and it builds the clam-0.99.2_1pkg installer

Inspecting the pkg file I can't see the conf file /usr/local/etc/clamav/freshclam.conf is included

Making me think this is perhaps not the way.

Any suggestions or guidance to kb articles you're aware of would be amazing

End game: Ultimately, deploying clamav via addigy as we've moved away from Gruntwork. Then run scans on a schedule - not much cashflow for paid software on all the clients.

clamav appears to be running fine in the test client VM.
It will discover EICAR files I've littered around and scan will run, I'm still not sure how to quarantine infected files(but thats a different conversation)

Anyway, Thanks for the info I keep seeing you posting on various sites.
Top work.

Regards,
Miro
