Casks seem to be for the installation of large .app files which we aren't doing. I personally think that using brew is fine for this.
I agree with this, the cask docs say:
Homebrew-Cask extends Homebrew and brings its elegance, simplicity, and speed to the installation and management of GUI macOS applications such as Atom and Google Chrome.
Homebrew-Cask does one thing, does it well, and plays nice with others. Apps are moved to your /Applications folder in the same way as you would manually.
Basically Cask
is for GUI things that need to go into /Applications
, and homebrew
is for command-line things that need to be in the path (they usually go into /usr/local/bin
).
I've always found it odd that Oracle java
is a cask (and that it goes into /Applications
, unlike every other language I've ever installed, which are all installed with brew
and go into /usr/local/bin
(e.g. python, groovy, go, kotlin, scala, Node.js). Maybe it's because it has a GUI update manager, idk.
Being a cask instead of a normal brew package also has the disadvantage that there is no built-in way to upgrade your apps, for brew you have brew upgrade
, for Casks you have to install a separate command-line tool (which is not officially supported etc.) to upgrade things.

As for the question about merging into the main branch..... I'm open to this concept but I do like the way that with this current setup we can simply manage our own repo and cut releases immediately without having to get someone to manually merge our pull request into the main repo. I'd be happy to add a pull request and see how it goes down in the main repo though. I do personally feel that we should have JCK compliance on macOS before adding this to the main repo as well.

Given that Oracle Java is a cask my assumption is that OpenJDK should also be a cask. This will probably be discussed after creating a Homebrew Pull Request. Maintaining also an own Tap to update immediately w/o waiting for the pull request to be merged, might be another option.
Anyway, waiting for JCK compliance and offering a Tap in the mean time might be the safest option.

closing as using brew appears to be okay for now
from homebrew-openjdk.
While this is a little bit of issue necromancy, after checking out this Tap I think the best course would be to implement as Casks.
- Casks aren't only for
.app
s, they are also for software that is installed globally or requires admin permissions to install - @gdams zulu and java (Now openjdk) are both Casks and both simply install into
/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/
- Installing into
/usr/local
does not allow GUI apps to use the installed jvm (as far as I know) - @gibfahn , unlike linux (and other nixs) Mac Java installs in various JavaVirtualMachines folders are usable on the cli through the
/usr/libexec/java_home
utility, which also allows you to switch jvms - @gibfahn buo/brew-cask-upgrade is completely unnecessary, use either
brew cask upgrade caskname
orbrew cask reinstall caskname
I would be happy to make a PR converting these to Casks.
Maybe it would be better just to contribute these to https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-cask-versions.

@moshen I've just started hacking together a basic cask file. I'll update the issue with progress
from homebrew-openjdk.
@gdams 👍 nice, seems like you basically want something like the openjdk one: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-cask/blob/3ca5556706a8e08fca9ea35bc82e9645494ebb05/Casks/java.rb
from homebrew-openjdk.
nearly finished now, just getting the plist stuff done :)
from homebrew-openjdk.
Okay so this cask file seems to be passing all of the tests and installing Java in the correct location. I'm pretty happy with this other than the fact that I curl the Info.plist
file in from a gist right now. We should probably move these Info.plist files to an internal repo somewhere. Also the generated Info.plist
might need a few other bits being changed (see below)
