add support for a homebrew installation/update

[remyleone]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I would like to have a homebrew tap to manage the installation and upgrade of the cmctl

Describe the solution you'd like

Ideally I would like to have a command like:

brew install cmctl

Describe alternatives you've considered

• I could download a release the problem is that I would not get the upgrade automatically.
• I could do a go install command but it seems complex to find the right command to install it using the go toolchain.

Hi! Thanks for opening an issue for this, I also wish we had an Homebrew formula (official or tap) for cmctl.

I also ran in to this issue. As I happen to already use the asdf version manager, I was able to install cmctl as follows:

$ asdf plugin add cmctl https://github.com/asdf-community/asdf-cmctl.git
$ echo "cmctl 1.9.0-beta1" >> ~/.tool-versions
$ asdf install
$ cmctl check api
The cert-manager API is ready

This seems to have resolved this satisfactorily for me.

FYI opened Homebrew/homebrew-core#114104 for inclusion in Homebrew core.

@remyleone @eblume @maelvls Homebrew accepted a merge of cmctl into homebrew/core, so as of today you can install cmctl with just brew install cmctl (you might need to brew update first of course). 🎉

I'm going to add it to the documentation for cmctl too before this issue is complete.

[JamesLaverack]

And that's the docs merged too. You can see the homebrew instalation instructions on https://cert-manager.io/docs/reference/cmctl/#homebrew.

@irbekrm can we close this issue?

Thanks for implementing and documenting this @JamesLaverack !
