ArchiveBox Homebrew Tap

Caution

This tracks dev releases, not stable! Report any issues you encounter please!
Use the normal pip install archivebox method if you want a stable release.

brew tap archivebox/archivebox
brew install archivebox

mkdir -p ~/archivebox/data
cd ~/archivebox/data
archivebox init
archivebox install

This tap tracks published ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox@dev prereleases. The release pipeline regenerates the formula after each verified PyPI publication.

This is not a "proper homebrew package" it's just a wrapper for the normal pip-based install, for users that prefer installing & updating with brew.

Maintenance

• Formula/archivebox.rb runs one exact PyPI wheel through Homebrew's prebuilt uv dependency. A tiny Linux bottle avoids requiring build tools just to install the wrapper.
• bin/build_brew.sh verifies the requested release against PyPI and rewrites the formula.
• .github/workflows/update-archivebox-dev.yml commits formula updates.

Do not add Python resource blocks or generated dependency lists. ArchiveBox's Python dependencies live in ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox package metadata and are resolved in uv's normal tool environment at runtime.
