# Homebrew Package Auto-Upgrade Tool

![Homebrew Package Auto-Upgrade Tool Demo](demo/demo_input.png)

### Setup

1) Add the following lines to your `~/.bashrc`, `~/.zshrc`, etc. file(s):

(**IMPORTANT**: replace `` with the absolute path to this Github project repo)

(`UPDATE_HOMEBREW_DAYS` defaults to 7 days, if unset)

```shell

# ---------

# Homebrew Package Auto-Upgrade Config

# ---------

# Change how often to auto-update Homebrew (in days)

export UPDATE_HOMEBREW_DAYS=7

# Path to Homebrew auto-update installation (Github project repo)

export UPDATE_HOMEBREW_PATH=

# Homebrew auto-update script

source $UPDATE_HOMEBREW_PATH/homebrew-updater.sh

```

This Homebrew package auto-upgrade tool also stores a `.brew-last-update` file in your user's home directory, which

contains a record of when the user was last prompted to run the Homebrew auto-upgrade tool.

#### (Optional)

2) You can edit the `homebrew_updater()` function, at line 14 in `homebrew-updater.sh`, to define your own Homebrew

   package auto-upgrade steps.

### Debug Logger

Each time your `~/.bashrc`, `~/.zshrc`, etc. file(s) are loaded, simple info and warning logs are sent to `debug.log`,

in this Git project repo.
