brew plugin

The plugin adds several aliases for common brew commands.

To use it, add brew to the plugins array of your zshrc file:

plugins=(... brew)

Shellenv

If brew is not found in the PATH, this plugin will attempt to find it in common locations, and execute brew shellenv to set the environment appropriately. This plugin will also export HOMEBREW_PREFIX="$(brew --prefix)" if not previously defined for convenience.

Aliases

Alias	Command	Description
bcubc	brew upgrade --cask && brew cleanup	Update outdated casks, then run cleanup.
bcubo	brew update && brew outdated --cask	Update Homebrew data, then list outdated casks.
brewp	brew pin	Pin a specified formula so that it's not upgraded.
brews	brew list -1	List installed formulae or the installed files for a given formula.
brewsp	brew list --pinned	List pinned formulae, or show the version of a given formula.
bubc	brew upgrade && brew cleanup	Upgrade outdated formulae and casks, then run cleanup.
bugbc	brew upgrade --greedy && brew cleanup	Upgrade outdated formulae and casks (greedy), then run cleanup.
bubo	brew update && brew outdated	Update Homebrew data, then list outdated formulae and casks.
bubu	bubo && bubc	Do the last two operations above.
bfu	brew upgrade --formula	Upgrade only formulas (not casks).
buz	brew uninstall --zap	Remove all files associated with a cask.

Completion

This plugin configures paths with Homebrew's completion functions automatically, so you don't need to do it manually. See: https://docs.brew.sh/Shell-Completion#configuring-completions-in-zsh.

With the release of Homebrew 1.0, they decided to bundle the zsh completion as part of the brew installation, so we no longer ship it with the brew plugin; now it only has brew aliases. If you find that brew completion no longer works, make sure you have your Homebrew installation fully up to date.
