# 0.0.1-API-Parser
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Parser for fixing this: https://github.com/Homebrew/brew/issues/5725
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Overview
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Homebrew is used to install software (packages). Homebrew uses 'formulae' to determine how a package is installed.
|
||
|
|
This project will automatically check which packages have had newer versions released, whether the package has an open PR on homebrew, and display the results.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## High-level Solution
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Fetch latest package version information from [repology.org](https://repology.org/) and store on file system.
|
||
|
|
- Fetch Homebrew Formulae information from [HomeBrew Formulae](https://formulae.brew.sh)
|
||
|
|
- Compare Current Homebrew Formulae version numbers and those coming from Repology's API and Livecheck.
|
||
|
|
- Determine whether package has open PR.
|
||
|
|
- Display results.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Details
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- This project can be run automatically at set intervals via GitHub Actions.
|
||
|
|
- Executing `ruby printPackageUpdates.rb` from the command line will query
|
||
|
|
both the Repology and Homebrew APIs. Homebrew's current version of each
|
||
|
|
package will be compared to the latest version of the package, per Repology's response.
|
||
|
|
- Homebrew's livecheck is also queried for each package, and that data is parsed, if available.
|
||
|
|
- Checks whether there is open PR for package.
|
||
|
|
- Each outdated package will be displayed to the console like so:
|
||
|
|
- Note that some packages will not be included in the Livecheck response. Those will have a 'Livecheck latest:' value of 'Not found'.
