This is the homebrew's tap for the stable versions of the OSGeo geospatial toolset. Right now our main focus is to provide and up-to-date QGIS formulae easy to install to the end user. The tap includes formulae that may not be specifically from an OSGeo project, but do extend the toolset's functionality
Just brew tap osgeo/osgeo4mac
and then brew install <formula>
. Easy, isn't it?
You can also install via URL:
$ brew install https://raw.githubusercontent.com/OSGeo/homebrew-osgeo4mac/master/Formula/<formula>.rb
Currently we are renaming formulae.
We recommend to run brew migrate <old-formula-name>
to move your install in your cellar from the old name to the new name and unlink and link to the new keg if necessary.
You can also just uninstall the old formula and reinstall the formula with the new name with:
$ brew uninstall --ignore-depencencies <old-formula-name>
$ brew install <new-formula-name>
Run brew help
, man brew
, check the Homebrew documentation or the tap documentation.
If you are interested in collaborating more close with us in the repo maintenance, formula development or just have an idea to take this tap further, please tell us. Any help, idea or suggestion is really welcomed because we want this top to be useful to people that are interested into use QGIS and the rest of the OSGeo toolset on macOS.
