# gobrew



Count all programs written/built in Go/Rust/Python/.. and distributed via Homebrew.



[![asciicast](https://asciinema.org/a/674093.svg)](https://asciinema.org/a/674093)



## why I built this?



I was curious. Are people _actually_ using Go more than Rust? Are there more software written with cmake or meson or ninja .. ?



Too many curious questions I wanted to answer them using _realworld statistics_.



I wrote a post about my findings regarding [Go vs Rust usage in Homebrew Core formulae on my website](https://abanoubhanna.com/posts/go-vs-rust-use-production/).



## commands



### install gobrew



- install using Go



```sh

go install github.com/abanoubha/gobrew

```



- install via the snap store



[![Get it from the Snap Store](https://snapcraft.io/static/images/badges/en/snap-store-white.svg)](https://snapcraft.io/gobrew)



### build CLI app from source



```sh

# get deps, build the "gobrew" executable

$ go mod tidy && go build -o gobrew .

```



### count all packages that use a specific language



```sh

# will show the count of packages written in Go in Homebrew Core (by default)

$ ./gobrew

No language nor build system nor library is specified. Counting packages built in Go (by default):

974



$ ./gobrew -l go

974



$ ./gobrew --lang go

974



$ ./gobrew -l rust

524



$ ./gobrew -l cython

12



$ ./gobrew -l ruby

27



$ ./gobrew -l lua

51



$ ./gobrew -l zig

6

```



#### all versions of the specified language



- all versions of python



```sh

$ ./gobrew -l python

771

```



- specific version of python



```sh

$ ./gobrew -l [email protected]

718



$ ./gobrew -l [email protected]

67



$ ./gobrew -l [email protected]

10



$ ./gobrew -l [email protected]

6



$ ./gobrew -l [email protected]

2

```



### count all packages that use a specific build system or library



```sh

# get the packages built with "ninja" build system

$ ./gobrew -l ninja

253



$ ./gobrew -l gcc

75



$ ./gobrew -l cmake

1011



$ ./gobrew -l meson

213



$ ./gobrew -l swig

32



$ ./gobrew -l llvm

51

```



### show all build dependencies and their count



```sh

$ ./gobrew -b
