Homebrew for macOS
Important
If you feel that Salt should be using this module to manage packages on a minion, and it is using a different module (or gives an error similar to 'pkg.install' is not available), see here.
This function is an alias of latest_version
.
Return the latest version of the named package available for upgrade or installation
Currently chooses stable versions, falling back to devel if that does not exist.
CLI Example:
salt '*' pkg.latest_version <package name> salt '*' pkg.latest_version <package1> <package2> <package3>
Set package in 'hold' state, meaning it will not be upgraded.
New in version 3001.

CLI Example:
salt '*' pkg.hold <package name>
A list of packages to hold. Must be passed as a python list.
CLI Example:
salt '*' pkg.hold pkgs='["foo", "bar"]'
Return the information of the named package(s) installed on the system.

Options to pass to brew. Only applies to initial install. Due to how brew works, modifying chosen options requires a full uninstall followed by a fresh install.

salt '*' pkg.install <package name> tap='<tap>'
