EC2 macOS Homebrew Tap

Introduction

AWS offers EC2-optimized macOS AMIs for developer use. These AMIs include this Tap for providing a simple way to get these tools and updates to them.

Homebrew is a package manager for macOS which provides easy installation and update management of additional software. This Tap (repository) contains the formulae that are used in the macOS AMI that AWS offers. This includes:

Installing the Tap

The AMIs provided by EC2 come with Homebrew "pretapped" with this Tap. To manually install the Tap, run the the brew tap command:

brew tap aws/homebrew-aws

Removing the Tap

If this Tap needs to be removed, Homebrew has a specific command for this. (Note: that this only removes the Tap but preserves anything previously installed)

brew untap aws/homebrew-aws

Usage

This Tap follows standard Homebrew commands, for more information, please refer to the Homebrew Documentation.

Updating

The most common use for the Tap is to get the latest software available on a launched instance. Updating is all done via brew update. This Tap follows standard Homebrew commands, for more information, please refer to the Homebrew Documentation. It is possible to update a specific Keg or Cask.

For example:

Installing

There are two primary ways to install software from the Tap. Kegs use the default brew install command while Casks have their own sub-command: brew install --cask. Currently, all the components in the Tap are pre-installed in the macOS AMIs that AWS offers.

For example:

Removing

Removing software is similar to installing software. Kegs and Casks now use the same brew remove command.

For example:
