Homebrew Tap for Amber CLI

This is a Homebrew tap for the Amber CLI - a command-line tool for managing Crystal web applications built with the Amber Framework.

Installation

# Add the tap
brew tap amberframework/homebrew-amber-cli

# Install amber-cli
brew install amber-cli

Or install directly:

brew install amberframework/homebrew-amber-cli/amber-cli

This Is Currently Experimental!

This is currently testing what it would be like to provide a precompiled binary to make getting started as fast as possible. This does mean we may have mistakes in the configuration for new users. If you run into weird issues, try re-installing from source with brew install --from-source amber-cli to have a fresh copy compiled. You'll most likely see more meaningful errors that can be installed by additional brew install commands for any missing packages. Please open an issue and report these so I can update the Formula for future fans!

Usage

After installation, you can use the amber command:

# Check version - prints general help info
amber

# Get help
amber --help

# Create a new Amber application
amber new my_app

# Generate components
amber generate controller users
amber generate model post

Updating

# Update the tap
brew update

# Upgrade amber-cli
brew upgrade amber-cli
