Sorry to bother you at this moment. 🙇🏻‍♂️

It seems that this task hasn't started yet.

I have experience with creating homebrew formulas and am interested in this task.

Would you mind assigning it to me?

Hey @SpiffyEight77, sure thing. Could you list the steps you will take to add cyctl to brew? I never added anything there so I'm curious if we need to add anything to our repo as well

@petar-cvit
Thank you for your quick response.

• I will build multiple architectures for the binary locally.
• Check if adding a makefile could simplify the build process.
  • Release the new version of Cyclops.
• Create the cyctl.rb file to facilitate building the Homebrew formula.

class Cyctl < Formula
  desc "customizable UI for Kubernetes workloads "
  homepage "https://cyclops-ui.com/"
  url "https://github.com/cyclops-ui/cyclops.git",
    tag:      "v0.5.0",
    revision: "3a5ad6428f51a9f506c7b1d62bee482789e91ad8"
  license "Apache-2.0"
  head "https://github.com/cyclops-ui/cyclops.git", branch: "main"

  depends_on "go" => :build
  depends_on "make" => :build

  def install
    system "make", "build"

    bin.install "bin/cyctl"

    generate_completions_from_executable(bin/"cyctl", "completion")
  end

  test do
    assert_match "Cyclops gives you a UI containing fields you define yourself to manage your K8s workloads.",
                  shell_output("#{bin}/cyctl -h")
  end
end

Can we make a GH action or add goreleaser to our repo to build new versions automatically? It would be great if you could set that up too

[SpiffyEight77]

Of course, I would be happy to do these tasks. 🙇🏻‍♂️

[petar-cvit]

Great! Assigning this to you. Let us know if you need any guidance

[SpiffyEight77]

Thank you so much.🙇🏻‍♂️

Hey @SpiffyEight77, I just wanted to check in on the issue and see if you need any help

[SpiffyEight77]

@petar-cvit
Thank you for your message. I'm a bit confused about a small issue.

How do we determine the version of cyctl?
It seems that hardcoding for it now, if I use GHA to release the new version, for example should I release as 0.2.x dynamically?

[petar-cvit]

The plan is it to build and release a new version of cyctl on each new release/tag on the GH repo. So the current version of cyctl would be v0.5.0

We would remove the v0.2.0 from the code of course

@petar-cvit
Thank you for your quick response to clear up my confusion.
I will submit the PR as soon as possible this weekend. 🙇🏻‍♂️
