Mac OS X 下如何安装brew

什么是brew？

brew 又叫Homebrew，是Mac OSX上的软件包管理工具，能在Mac中方便的安装软件或者卸载软件，只需要一个命令，有点类似ubuntu系统下的apt-get的功能。

官方网站：http://brew.sh/

可以在其网页上找到安装方法：

ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/go/install)"

如果你用root权限进行安装，它会提示：Don't run this as root!

那就用普通账号进行安装吧！安装期间会让你输一次普通账号的密码，然后就耐心等待下载吧。

安装完后会有这么一段提示：

Run `brew doctor` before you installanything

那就按照它的提示来一趟吧~~~

执行完后一堆提示：

Please note that these warnings are just used to helpthe Homebrew maintainers

with debugging if you file an issue. If everythingyou use Homebrew for is

working fine: please don't worry and just ignorethem. Thanks!

Warning: python is symlinked to python3

This will confuse build scripts and in general leadto subtle breakage.

Warning: Python is installed at/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework

Homebrew only supports building against theSystem-provided Python or a

brewed Python. In particular, Pythons installed to/Library can interfere

with other software installs.

Warning: Unbrewed dylibs were found in/usr/local/lib.

If you didn't put them there on purpose they couldcause problems when

building Homebrew formulae, and may need to bedeleted.

Unexpected dylibs:

   /usr/local/lib/libevent-2.0.5.dylib

   /usr/local/lib/libevent_core-2.0.5.dylib

   /usr/local/lib/libnettle.4.7.dylib

Warning: Unbrewed .la files were found in/usr/local/lib.

If you didn't put them there on purpose they couldcause problems when

Warning: Unbrewed static libraries were found in/usr/local/lib.

If you didn't put them there on purpose they couldcause problems when

building Homebrew formulae, and may need to bedeleted.

Unexpected static libraries:

   /usr/local/lib/libevent.a

Warning: /usr/bin occurs before /usr/local/bin

This means that system-provided programs will be usedinstead of those

provided by Homebrew. The following tools exist atboth paths:

    2to3

    memcached

Consider setting your PATH so that /usr/local/bin

occurs before /usr/bin. Here is a one-liner:

    echo exportPATH='/usr/local/bin:$PATH' >> ~/.bash_profile

------------------------

不管它，接下来就可以用brew来安装软件了

查找你要的组件：

brew search xxx

显示出结果：

xxx1 xxx2 xxxx3

选择你需要的组件安装：

brew install xxx1

卸载组件就是：

brew remove xxx1

如果哪天你不需要brew了，就按照以下命令卸载：

cd `brew –prefix`
rm -rf Cellar
brew prune
rm -rf Library .git .gitignore bin/brew README.mdshare/man/man1/brew
rm -rf ~/Library/Caches/Homebrew
