Get Homebrew Cask

homebrew/get-cask

Returns one Homebrew cask (a macOS application) by token: names, description, homepage, current version, download URL and SHA-256, artifact kinds, macOS requirement, supported platforms, deprecation status and 30, 90 and 365 day install counts. Package data from Homebrew, https://formulae.brew.sh, the Homebrew formulae and cask index (formulae.brew.sh is maintained by the Homebrew project), reduced to the fields listed and served by Eden Engine; not an official Homebrew product. Install counts come from Homebrew's analytics, which users can opt out of.
