Go back

Let's bring the cask up to date. It’ll likely need a new version, but it’s possible the version has remained the same (happens occasionally when the vendor updates the app in place).

  1. Go to the vendor’s website (brew cask home {{cask_name}}).
  • Alternatively, if it has an appcast, read that (curl "$(brew cask _stanza appcast {{cask_name}})").
  1. Find out what the latest version is. It will likely be expressed in the URL used to download it.
  2. Take a look at the cask’s version (brew cask _stanza version {{cask_name}}) and verify it is indeed outdated.
    • If the app’s version is latest, it means the url itself is outdated. It will need to be changed to the new one.

If it is outdated, start by trying to submit a fix. If you’re having trouble, open an issue with this template explaining your steps so far and why you’re having trouble submitting the update.
