Register at a homebrew official repository

[c-bata]

kube-prompt is gradually becoming a little bit famous. So perhaps it is the worth to register at a homebrew official repository.
It is a little bit comfortable because we don't need brew tap.

[c-bata]

Is there a someone who want to register kube-prompt at homebrew official repository?

Is it possible to add Linux flavour to brew formulae?
Currently it installs MacOS binary on Linux:

> uname -srm
Linux 4.4.0-200-generic x86_64

> brew install c-bata/kube-prompt/kube-prompt

Hi @yermulnik! Thank you for your comment.

I've just checked the Formulae Cookbook but found no descriptions to support Linux.
https://docs.brew.sh/Formula-Cookbook

Do you know how to write Homebrew Formulae for Linux? The formulae is on following repository so that I'm also welcome your pull request if you can.

Hi @c-bata

Unfortunately I'm not very familiar with brew yet to provider proper PR for the kube-prompt formulae but this looks to be a quick example which fits this case: https://github.com/minamijoyo/homebrew-tfupdate/blob/master/tfupdate.rb

I've also took a look through some of formulaes with Linux support but most of these seem to be too complicated for me to understand how these work w/o good knowledge with brew formulaes: https://formulae.brew.sh/formula-linux/

Let me know whether you're fine with the way tfupdate formulae is constructed and I'll try and replicate this via PR to https://github.com/c-bata/homebrew-kube-prompt

@yermulnik I'm really sorry for the delayed response.

Welcome. I will review your pull request.

[yermulnik]

@c-bata No worries. Here it is: c-bata/homebrew-kube-prompt#2
Verified to be functional on Linux:

> brew reinstall kube-prompt

You also may want to look into GoReleaser to re-generate homebrew formulae when releasing new version: https://goreleaser.com/customization/homebrew/

[c-bata]

I merged your PR. Thank you for your contribution.

Hmm... The error seems to be related to #54.

[c-bata]

Let me close this issue since I lost the motivation to register at HomeBrew official repository.

[yermulnik]

@c-bata Thanks for merging PR.

Hmm... The error seems to be related to #54.

Nah, disregard this. This was just to show that I got correct binary installed with the fixed brew formulae. And kube-prompt errored out just because I didn't have any kube config in place.
Thanks!
