- Instead use class methods.
- This is better than use it as a mixin
when only a small number of methods are
used in each class or module.
- It also allows us to conditionally
require it in `brew install`.
- Removed unused search require in descriptions.rb.
Now the search_name method takes the command line
args and only returns package types that line up
with those args.
That means it will only return casks if casks are valid
and same with formulae.
- provide specific install instructions
when a cask/formula doesn't exist
and we search for similar ones
- print and exit early if a named formula that
was removed recently has the same name
- exit early if the tap is specified because
we don't get good search results
- Move `search_names` and `print_missing_formula_help` out of `cmd/search.rb` to `search.rb`
- Change to using those functions in `cmd/install.rb` when a formula or cask doesn't exist
We added the `--all` flag (now renamed to `--eval-all`) for various
commands for this behaviour so let's start deprecating this.
Also, introduce a `HOMEBREW_EVAL_ALL` environment variable to use the
existing, less secure, behaviour by default and avoid passing
`--eval-all` everywhere.
I often find myself checking Repology to quickly reference how other
package managers handle certain things, so it seems useful to be able to
do so with `brew search`.
While we're here, let's fix the query URL for MacPorts.
These were all made `--formulae` and `--casks` for consistency but that
doesn't behave as expected because they have special behaviours in
`args`. Instead, use the singular form everywhere.
f762033a57 introduced a bug such that `reason` is coerced to a boolean, so when displayed it loses information about the actual return value from `MissingFormula.reason`. This patch re-scopes the assignment of `reason` such that the actual reason is retained, while also retaining the sense of the new boolean check.
