Virtual Reality formulae for Homebrew

Primary LanguageRuby

Homebrew-VR

These are Virtual Reality formulae for Homebrew. They include:

How do I install these formulae?

Just brew tap casallas/vr and then brew install <formula>.

If the formula conflicts with one from Homebrew/homebrew/master or another tap, you can brew install casallas/vr/<formula>.

You can also install via URL:

brew install https://raw.github.com/casallas/homebrew-vr/master/<formula>.rb

What is Homebrew? I just want to install vr-jugglua

OK, just download and execute this file. It might take a while (I would say 2 hours) for it to compile and install all the dependencies, but it should work.

If you are curious, this script does the following:

#!/bin/bash

# Install homebrew (taken from http://brew.sh/)
ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"

# Add brew to your path
echo "# Prepend homebrew bins to your PATH" >> ~/.bash_profile
echo "export PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/Library/Contributions/examples:$PATH" >> ~/.bash_profile

# Tap casallas/vr
brew tap casallas/vr

# Update homebrew just in case
brew update

# Install vr-jugglua
brew install vr-jugglua

# Link NavTestbed.app to /Applications
ln -s `brew --prefix vr-jugglua`/NavTestbed.app /Applications

This will create a symlink of NavTestbed.app on your Applications folder, so you can run it from your dock. The "real" NavTestbed.app, and all of vr-jugglua's examples, config files, etc, will be at /usr/local/opt/vr-jugglua in case you ever need them.

Troubleshooting

If something goes wrong try brew update, and then brew install vr-jugglua again. If that doesn't help run brew install -v vr-jugglua, open an issue, and paste the output from your console output.
