Please add to popular macOS package manager Homebrew about todoman HOT 10 CLOSED

brew create https://github.com/pimutils/todoman/archive/v1.7.0.tar.gz seems like a useful starting point if you're willing to look into this.

I wanted to give this a try, but most of the dependencies are missing too, so formulas for those are required as well (I only have an OS X VM laying around, I don't actively use it so as to commit to maintaining that many hombrew formulas).

I'm not really familiar enough with how todoman works to create the formula for it, and it's also a bit of a chicken/egg case as I'd only become familiar with it if I could install it...

You can do that using pip install --user todoman, which installs into ~/.local/bin and ~/.local/lib, though it won't update via homebrew.

You don't really need to know any specifics, just package the dependencies are regular python libs, and then todoman.

I'll leave this open though, since contributor are welcome to package it, but since none of us use OSX/macOS, we simply can't/won't be doing this ourselves.

I made an attempt at creating a formula here https://gist.github.com/rnkn/a5189ef2640595117ce8505cadd052da

But this gives me

Didn't see this before and I had todoman installed via homebrew so I thought this already exists. but it seems it doesn't and I must have done so in some local Formula which I deleted since then.
But I took what @rnkn did, made it work and opened a PR Homebrew/homebrew-core#9080

from todoman.

@benjaminfrank Thanks a bunch! Out of curiosity, it creating one virtualenv per app common on macOS?

from todoman.

common on macOS

It's a Homebrew thing, not a macOS thing. See Homebrew/brew#344.

Yes, sorry, that's what I meant, thanks.

Closed via upstream Homebrew/homebrew-core#9080.
