Elektra Homebrew Formula

This tap contains a 🍺 Homebrew formula for the configuration framework ⚡️ Elektra. The official Homebrew repository homebrew/core also includes an official formula for Elektra. We therefore recommend you use this tap, only if you want to use functionality that is not supported by the formula in homebrew/core, such as library dependent plugins (e.g. yajl, yamlcpp).

How to Use

Preparation

If you installed Elektra manually before, then please remove it before you install this formula. After you uninstalled Elektra, please run brew doctor and remove all fragments of previous Elektra versions that the command reports.

Installation

Options

.
