Macaulay2 Tap

This is the Homebrew repository for Macaulay2 and its dependencies.

How do I install Homebrew?

See brew.sh.

How do I install these formulae?

To add this Homebrew tap and install Macaulay2 from a bottle, run:

brew tap Macaulay2/tap
brew install M2

Alternatively, to install M2 directly, run:

brew install Macaulay2/tap/M2

Can I modify the options?

Yes, though the only bottled version is built with the default set of options. To see a list of options, run:

brew info M2

Documentation

brew help, man brew or the Formula Cookbook.

Contributing

Pull requests for improvements, bug fixes, or new formulae are welcome! In particular, help is needed for adding better testing to the existing formulae and moving them to homebrew/core.

Before submitting a pull request, make sure that it satisfies Homebrew's style guidelines with

brew style Macaulay2/tap

and that the changed formula can be bottled by running:

brew install --verbose --build-bottle Macaulay2/tap/<formula>

You can use this Docker environment for testing the formulae in a controlled environment. Afterwards, you can audit the formula with:

brew audit Macaulay2/tap

When a pull request becomes green (all checks passed), then you can publish the built bottles. To do so, label your PR as pr-pull and the workflow will be triggered. Do NOT merge the PR.

Bottling

Pre-built Homebrew "bottles", which may be used instead of building from source, are built using GitHub Actions for Linux and macOS x86_64 systems. See the wiki for information about bottling Macaulay2 and its dependencies for different architectures.

The formula from which the Macaulay2 bottle on this tap is built uses the CMake build system.

Bug Reports

For issues concerning Macaulay2 itself, file an issue on the upstream repository. If the problem is specific to this build, please open an issue here and include the output of brew config and brew doctor. You can also try visiting the wiki for debugging information and workarounds for common problems.
