Welcome to Hacktoberfest!

If you've never made a Pull Request before, Homebrew Cask is a great place to start! We provide an easy way to manage GUI apps (known as Casks) on macOS.

Check out CONTRIBUTING for help with common tasks (adding a new Cask, updating an existing Cask, etc.)

---

We appreciate every contribution, but here's a list of some issues you could help us out with (curated from the list of issues):

• installer Casks should provide uninstall stanzas
• implement a built-in command to calculate the appcast checkpoint
• Fix error message if app already exists
• audit should warn about deprecated options
• audit: check availability of URLs and HTTPS versions
• add a reinstall command - in progress

• add a cask for:

None. @adidalal mentioned this earlier today on Gitter. Deprecate license: seems like a good candidate, as do most ready to implement.

[vitorgalvao]

Made the label, with their button color.

Updated my top post to serve as a pointer.

Wait, we aren’t supposed to be using the license stanza anymore?

I’m tackling 3MCloudLibrary now, by the way.

We still need to use it (the code isn’t yet deprecated), but the stanza itself doesn’t matter anymore (it never did, in practice).

[Saklad5]

So I should basically just leave “unknown" there until it is finally deprecated?

Whatever you want. If you want to make it more correct than unknown, no harm done, but it won’t matter in the future.

I am trying to make my first cask, but it isn't working

I'm using the following:

cask 'hwsensors' do
  version '6.21.1412'
  sha256 'b4ccef946849811069b0beb68a4c278b526a79d8dd8caa25415bad5042600fdc'

  # On GitHub at https://github.com/kozlek/HWSensors but pkg not updated on minor releases
  url "http://www.hwsensors.com/content/01-releases/42-release-1412/HWSensors.#{version}.pkg"
  # Inconcistent naming scheme - follows 01-releases/{number update}-release-{minor version}.pkg
  # Filed GH issue for it: https://github.com/kozlek/HWSensors/issues/341
  name 'HWSensors'
  homepage 'http://www.hwsensors.com/'
  license :gpl

  pkg 'HWSensors.#{version}.pkg'

  uninstall pkgutil: 'org.hwsensors.HWMonitor'
end

However, it is looking in the wrong directory:

==> Downloading http://www.hwsensors.com/content/01-releases/42-release-1412/HWSensors.6.21.1412.pkg
Already downloaded: /Users/noah/Library/Caches/Homebrew/Cask/hwsensors--6.21.1412.pkg
==> Verifying checksum for Cask hwsensors
==> Running installer for hwsensors; your password may be necessary.
==> Package installers may write to any location; options such as --appdir are ignored.
Error: pkg source file not found: '/usr/local/Caskroom/hwsensors/6.21.1412/hwsensors--6.21.1412.pkg'

I have tried using

• hwsensors--6.21.1412.pkg
• HWSensors.#{version}.pkg
• hwsensors--#{version}.pkg
• HWSensors--6.21.1412.pkg
  but none work

@smileytechguy Try adding container type: :naked. If it does not solve it, please open a new issue, lets not mix conversations. You’ll also need to remove the comments from the cask.

Closing this, since Hacktoberfest sadly has come to an end. Thanks to all contributors, we “won”! 😂

[vitorgalvao]

@reitermarkus Where did you find those statistics? Is there any more interesting information?

@Saklad5 Thank you. I actually went to the page but jumped that section, for some reason.
