How to install Bun via homebrew formula

Question

I want to install Bun via homebrew but I cannot find a formula to install it.

Maybe there isn't one. https://github.com/Jarred-Sumner/bun/issues/272 — jonrsharpe, Jul 06 '22 at 15:53
looks like `Bun` isn't packaged for *any* package manager. They only provide a script that installs it, which they claim works on MacOS, Linux and WSL. — Esther, Jul 06 '22 at 15:53
Bun is packaged in AUR (Arch User Repository). Check out bun-bin @Ester — Maciej Bledkowski, Jul 07 '22 at 01:31

Before installing, you need to tap the repo:

brew tap oven-sh/bun
brew install bun

Right now, bun is only in AUR according to repology. And you can search if it is there by brew search bun.

$ brew search "bun"
==> Formulae
bundler-completion          dylibbundler                libunistring                mecab-unidic                rbenv-bundler               run
bundletool                  jsonnet-bundler             libunwind                   mecab-unidic-extended       rbenv-bundler-ruby-version
cargo-bundle                libuninameslist             libunwind-headers           rbenv-bundle-exec           bup

[Update] I tried the provided installation steps, does not work for me with zig 0.10 (zig master build)

You need to use Jarred's custom zig fork on his GitHub. – sno2 Jul 08 '22 at 17:44 — sno2, Jul 08 '22 at 17:44
