配置 .zshrc

export HOMEBREW_API_DOMAIN="https://mirrors.tuna.tsinghua.edu.cn/homebrew-bottles/api"
export HOMEBREW_BOTTLE_DOMAIN="https://mirrors.tuna.tsinghua.edu.cn/homebrew-bottles"

执行命令安装

/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"

add Homebrew’s location to your $PATH in your .bash_profile or .zshrc file.

export PATH="/usr/local/bin:$PATH"

brew 常用命令

brew update
brew upgrade
# 自检程序，如果有问题自检试试
brew doctor 
brew search xxx-pkg
brew install xxx-pkg
brew remove xxx-pkg

查看全部安装路径

brew list

查看指定软件安装路径

brew list xxx-pkg
brew install --cask xxx

不要使用：brew cask install xxx；会报错：Error: Unknown command: cask

自建 homebrew formula cookbook #

brew search formula_name
brew create formula_name
brew tap repName/projectName url
