[Question] Is it possible to get `version` from a http response header? about homebrew-cask-versions HOT 2 CLOSED

You can modify the version, sha, and url to match an exact version-number and then add a livecheck block using the :header_match strategy.

See the corresponding docs in https://docs.brew.sh/Cask-Cookbook#stanza-livecheck

Also try going through other Casks that use this strategy.

There is a default regex that is applied, which you can first try. If it doesn't work, you can refine it either with a regex(...) section, or you can use the strategy :header_match do |headers| logic for more complicated matches, similar to the :page_match strategy.

I'm hesitant to set version to the exact version as its a nightly version and I doubt it will get people that are dedicated enough to bump the version each day, unlike google-chrome-canary and similar.

I''l just stick with :latest.
