Opslevel Tap

What is Homebrew?

Package manager for macOS (or Linux), see more at https://brew.sh

What is a Tap?

A third-party (in relation to Homebrew) repository providing installable packages (formulae) on macOS and Linux.

See more at https://docs.brew.sh/Taps

How do I install packages from here?

brew install opslevel/tap/<name>

# Or to upgrade
brew upgrade opslevel/tap/<name>

You can also only add the tap which makes formulae within it available in search results (brew search output):

brew tap opslevel/tap

What packages are available?

With the following commands, you can install the latest version of each product:

# Formulae
brew install opslevel/tap/cli
brew install opslevel/tap/kubectl

Why should I install packages from this tap?

Formulae in this tap are maintained by OpsLevel.

  • macOS binaries are signed by OpsLevel and the signature can be verified
  • Teams maintaining OpsLevel software choose Go version and any build flags deliberately while factoring in support, security and other concerns. Binaries distributed through this tap reflect this.
  • Updating of formulae is automated, which means that updates become available as they're released.

Why doesn't OpsLevel maintain formulae in the homebrew-core (main tap)?

Homebrew's core team prefers to keep homebrew-core as community maintained and built from source to maintain consistency across vendors in terms of expectations around contents and updates. See relevant discussion for more information.
