Where can I find a list of all formulas available for homebrew?

Question

Is there a way to get a list of all formulas (packages) I can install using homebrew for Mac OS X?

Answer 1

From your Mac

If you just want the package names for all formulae:

brew search

The following command will list the info snippets for all existing Homebrew formulae:

brew info --all

You can also start a server to browse the formulae locally at http://localhost:4567:

brew server

Or browse the local Git repository—thanks to Mk12 for that:

ls $(brew --prefix)/Library/Formula

---

Online

Other than that, you can just browse the following website:

https://github.com/mxcl/homebrew/tree/master/Library/Formula

Or visit braumeister.org, as pointed out by Marco Peluso.

Answer 2

Apart from the things slhck mentioned, there's an online package browser available at braumeister.org
