Greetings. Thanks all for helping maintain this. It's a huge timesaver to have this as a resource to keep our internal homebrew formulas working when upstream brew makes changes.

we recently discovered a small bug. If you try to use a GH token that does not have access to your private repo you'll get this exception:

Error: uninitialized constant GitHub::HTTPNotFoundError

The fix is simple. On line 81 change rescue GitHub::HTTPNotFoundError to rescue GitHub::API::HTTPNotFoundError and the user gets the intended error message:

      def install
        bin.install "yyyyyyyyy"
      end
    end

The tap is brand new, created yesterday with brew tap-new and the Formula is also brand new. It's Go executable so most of the build and release was made with Goreleaser. I only have this one formula.

Gorelease is able to compile and push a new release without any issue.

@vallieres Could you please also post your used Homebrew version?

@vallieres
Copy link

Sure!

❯ brew --version
Homebrew 3.3.8-15-gd448121
Homebrew/homebrew-core (git revision 43865460f66; last commit 2021-12-14)
Homebrew/homebrew-cask (git revision 9e847b02f5; last commit 2021-12-14)

I have since tried many things, but I'm at a loss to understand why, but it finally worked. The best thing I could point to is my Terminal window had a bad environment variable set or something. Not sure, at all.

Goreleaser is defined as such:

url_template: "https://github.com/xxxxxxxx/yyyyyyyy/releases/download/{{ .Tag }}/{{ .ArtifactName }}"
download_strategy: GitHubPrivateRepositoryReleaseDownloadStrategy
custom_require: "lib/private_strategy"

Formula:

on_macos do
  if Hardware::CPU.arm?
    url "https://github.com/xxxxxxxx/yyyyyyyy/releases/download/v1.1.2/yyyyyyyyy_1.1.2_Darwin_arm64.tar.gz", :using => GitHubPrivateRepositoryReleaseDownloadStrategy

    def install
      bin.install "yyyyyyyyy"
    end
  end

And if I do a diff between your private_strategy and mine, they are identical...
Sorry to have wasted your time!

I have this Makefile command I added to my project so I figured I might share it with you 🙂

Basically, you just do make release when on the main branch, and give it the next SEMVER version, and it does everything for you with Goreleaser. Then a simple brew update && brew upgrade yyyyyy updates your app.

release: ## Builds the binary release of the app

ifeq ($(BRANCH), $(MAIN))
	@echo "[-] This is the latest tag on the repo:"
	@git describe --abbrev=0
	@echo " "
	@read -p "[-] Enter New Tag: " TAG; git tag -s -a v$$TAG -m "Version $$TAG"; git push origin v$$TAG
	@echo " "
	@echo "[-] Launching Go Releaser..."
	@goreleaser release --rm-dist
	@echo "[-] Done!"
else
	@echo $(BRANCH)$(MAIN)$(BRANCH)
	@echo ""
	@echo "⚠️ You must be on the main branch! ⚠️"

Hi @vallieres, thanks for sharing the Makefile command, and I am glad that it now works for you.

I have since tried many things, but I'm at a loss to understand why, but it finally worked. The best thing I could point to is my Terminal window had a bad environment variable set or something. Not sure, at all.

In general, the functionality just overwrite/ replace the already existing functionality inside Homebrew itself. Maybe, you missed resetting an env variable, or you used an old token from Mac OS X keychain.

Hello! Had same problem with timeout, resolved by adding timeout argument to _fetch methods.
Then I realised that GitHub module changed and open_api method was removed, so I used get_release method.

Now everything works like a charm!

@gaarutyunov Thanks for the hint. I think both methods used, at the end, the same/ a similar call to get the expected result. I'll update that because, I think, it's better to use the central wrapper method to extract the release version.

Hello! I don't even know if it's possible, but I want to do something of this sort with a Font Cask, by hiding my fonts behind a private repository, however I don't know where to start, since the font-cask requires to only create the cask, and the cask will not let me import the private_strategy.rb. Any idea of how can I make this work?

@ZPascal

ZPascal commented May 12, 2022

Hi @alejakun, I'm not so familiar with the Homebrew Cask, but could you please post a dummy example of your cask and the corresponding error message. Maybe it's also possible to use the "dirty way" and inject the Token directly inside the URL.

@alejakun
Copy link

Hi, I think it should be possible to do it "the dirty way", just trying to find a "clean way" to do it, I've been trying several approaches and I have come up with some solutions but all of them seem a bit odd or quirky:

First what's working right now:

FAMILY: Some Name
cask 'FIXME' do
  version "?"
  sha256 "51481a4ac783bb8cf21cd202f3d7eb27437bc29eb49874b1ab58301234567890"

  url "file://#{ENV['HOMEBREW_PREFIX']}/Homebrew/Library/Taps/<user>/homebrew-cask-fonts/Fonts/some-font.zip"
  name "Some Font"
  homepage ""

  font "SOME_FONT.TTF"
end

I've been looking around for a while now and there are two options which seem more clean, the first is with your approach which involves importing a file, however this is not working because I have no access to the Formula (this is handled by the cask-font, and meddling with it seems a little bit too much) and when I try to import it to the cask it says something in the line of "invalid file format".

The other option I've been trying as explained here is to add an authorization token like this:

cask 'XXXX' do
...
  url "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/....",
      header : "Authorization: token #{ENV['HOMEBREW_GITHUB_API_TOKEN']}"
...
end

However I feel like this is outdated because the variable HOMEBREW_GITHUB_API_TOKEN is set in the environment correctly (I've tested this concatenating this to the URL as the URL is displayed in the command line when homebrew works its magic.

FAMILY: Some Name
cask 'FIXME' do
  version "?"
  sha256 "51481a4ac783bb8cf21cd202f3d7eb27437bc29eb49874b1ab58301234567890"

  url "https://github.com/<user>/homebrew-cask-fonts/raw/master/Fonts/<some-font>.zip"
  name "Some Font"
  homepage ""

  font "SOME_FONT.TTF"
end

Now that I'm writing all this I believe I have to use the second approach but changing the URL from what I have to something more like in your code like this "https://#{ENV['HOMEBREW_GITHUB_API_TOKEN']}@github.com/<user>/<repo>/<file_path>"

I'll be testing this approach and let you know.

I've tested my proposed strategy, but it is not working ☹️ , error displayed:

==> Downloading https://<api-token>@github.com/alej
curl: (22) The requested URL returned error: 404

hope someone has a clue.

ZPascal commented May 12, 2022

@alejakun Could you please test if it's possible to download the artifact without the cask? Maybe, an access problem.

@alejakun
Copy link

I've tried with several formats:

https://#{ENV['HOMEBREW_GITHUB_API_TOKEN']}@github.com/<user>/<repo>/Fonts/<file_name>.zip
https://#{ENV['HOMEBREW_GITHUB_API_TOKEN']}@github.com/<user>/<repo>/raw/master/Fonts/<file_name>.zip

The first one fails in the browser, the second one is successful in the browser as long as I'm logged in GH, otherwise it returns a HTTP 404.

Could you please try curl or wget and the corresponding TOKEN directly? If the file is located inside the repository, please use the raw mode.

You are correct, using just curl it returns the 404 page. Any suggestions of what might be wrong with my environment?

I've started a test on my side to download a file from a private repository directly via curl. I've used the following command curl https://<TOKEN>@raw.githubusercontent.com/<OWNER>/<REPO>/<BRANCH>/<PATH TO FILE> --output <NAME OF THE FILE>. Could you please try it out? I think it should be possible, to use the URL at the end directly inside the cask.

Hi, sorry for the late reply, the curl command with the suggested format is working, however I don't know how to translate that to the URL in my cask definition.

Edit: Finally made it work, it seems I was so into it that I missed some parts of the url. Anyways you nailed it, thanks for the support!

I am not sure this is the exact place for it but has anyone using this seen an error Error: can't modify frozen class while using these scripts? I am running a brew install for a private github repo when I get this error. My google-fu is weak so taking a shot in the dark in case it is more widespread.

Hi @mtintes, could you please post the output of the --debug flag of the installation command?

One of coworkers ended up finding an answer (sort of). This was the original error. konductor is a cli written in go in this case.

We had to copy a bunch of old code from homebrew that looks like it got deprecated and put that in the private strategy. This is a copy of that. No idea if that is the best path since neither of us does anything with ruby.

For anyone recently having issues with this, see Homebrew/brew#15169. CurlDownloadStrategy changed a bit.

This fix worked for me.
