# brew plugin

The plugin adds several aliases for common [brew](https://brew.sh) commands.

To use it, add `brew` to the plugins array of your zshrc file:

```zsh
plugins=(... brew)
```

## Shellenv

This plugin also executes `brew shellenv` at plugin load to set up many useful variables, such as `HOMEBREW_PREFIX` or `HOMEBREW_REPOSITORY`.

## Completion

With the release of Homebrew 1.0, they decided to bundle the zsh completion as part of the
brew installation, so we no longer ship it with the brew plugin; now it only has brew
aliases. If you find that brew completion no longer works, make sure you have your Homebrew
installation fully up to date.
