brew-bundle: Install packages from a specific Brewfile at a specific path.
$ brew bundle --file=${filename}
try on your machine

This command is used in the Homebrew package manager for macOS.

brew bundle is a subcommand that allows you to manage and install multiple packages at once, using a Brewfile configuration file. The Brewfile is a text file containing a list of packages and their versions that you want to install.

--file=${filename} is an option used to specify the path to the Brewfile you want to use. ${filename} is a placeholder for the actual filename or path of your desired Brewfile. By providing this option, you can instruct Homebrew to use a specific Brewfile instead of the default one (e.g., Brewfile located in the current directory).

For example, if you have a Brewfile named my-packages.brewfile in your Documents directory, you can use the following command:

brew bundle --file=~/Documents/my-packages.brewfile

This command would tell Homebrew to install the packages specified in the my-packages.brewfile.
