How to install homebrew package with options about puppet-homebrew HOT 5 CLOSED

there is an install_options feature. Ex.

  package { 'php54':
    ensure => present,
    install_options => [
      '--with-fpm',
      '--without-apache'
    ],
    require => Package['zlib']
  }

Hello,

It's not exactly options for installing the package that I need but forcing the link when the package is installed.

I've done that:

homebrew::tap { 'homebrew/dupes': } ->
package { 'make': ensure => present, }

It's ok, it installed it but as make is keg-only, I still have to do brew link make --force

Any clue how to do it?

I've done:

homebrew::tap { 'homebrew/dupes': } ->
  package { 'make':
    ensure => present,
  }

  exec { 'homebrew/make':
    command => 'brew link make --force'
  }

Maybe not the best way but it works.

For grep, I tried change present to latest and it failed with following message

Could not evaluate: Could not get latest version: Execution of 'brew boxen-latest grep' returned 1: Error: No available formula for grep

Is that not supported ?
