This is most likely the easiest way to run Forscan on MacOS.
- First install homebrew from: http://brew.sh
- Then copy following command into Terminal:
brew install --no-quarantine --cask wine-stable onnimonni/tap/forscan
- And after this plug your cable to the car and launch
FORScan.app
in your machine.
Note
Homebrew doesn't allow --no-quarantine
to be applied to child dependencies
Even though onnimonni/tap/forscan
requires Wine Stable.
Because of this it's easiest to install this by running them both here
brew uninstall forscan --zap
If you notice that there's a new version you can create a pull-request to update the version like this:
export NEW_FORSCAN_VERSION=$(brew livecheck forscan --json | jq -r '.[0].version.latest')
# This needs to use --no-audit flag because the downloaded file doesn't contain any MacOS binaries.
brew bump-cask-pr --no-audit --version $NEW_FORSCAN_VERSION onnimonni/tap/forscan
I will then merge the new version as soon as I can ❤️ 👌.
After the version change is merged you can update your Forscan by running this:
brew update && brew upgrade onnimonni/tap/forscan
Install Kitsas, Finnish bookkeeping software for small organisations through my custom homebrew tap by running:
brew install --cask onnimonni/tap/kitsas
Similiarly as with Homebrew:
brew bump-cask-pr --no-audit --version $(brew livecheck kitsas --json | jq -r '.[0].version.latest') onnimonni/tap/kitsas
If you change FORScan Cask somehow please run following checks to sanity check worst mistakes:
osascript FORScan.app/Contents/MacOS/launcher.applescript syntax-check
plutil FORScan.app/Info.plist
brew help
, man brew
or check Homebrew's documentation.
