history

Project history and usage

CookCLI is the command-line companion to Cooklang, a plain-text recipe markup ecosystem. It packages recipe rendering, shopping-list generation, search, import, validation, reporting, pantry features, and a local web server behind the `cook` executable.

Project history

The official repository was created in January 2021, and the first GitHub release, a demo release tagged 0.0.1, was published in July 2021. The project remained aligned with Cooklang's plain-text recipe model rather than becoming a hosted recipe service.

Adoption history

CookCLI's package-manager footprint is modest but useful for Unix-style users: the Homebrew formula installs `cookcli`, while the input package facts also record a MacPorts package named `cook`. Official documentation presents Homebrew and GitHub Releases as installation paths.

How it is used

Typical usage is local and file-oriented: users seed example recipes, render `.cook` files, combine recipes into shopping lists, run `cook server` for a local browser UI, and point commands at a recipe directory with `--base-path`.

Why package nerds care

The package is notable as a small domain-specific CLI for people who treat recipes as versionable data. Its appeal is less about scale and more about fitting cooking workflows into the familiar Unix pattern of plain files, composable commands, offline use, and package-manager installation.

Timeline

  • 2021: Official GitHub repository created.
  • 2021: First public GitHub release, 0.0.1, published as a demo release.
  • 2026: Official docs describe CookCLI as a tool for recipe management, shopping lists, automation, and a local web UI.

Related projects

  • CookCLI is part of the Cooklang ecosystem, alongside the Cooklang specification, recipe examples, editors, mobile apps, and the broader `cooklang` GitHub organization.

  • Homebrew bottle metadata is available for 6 platform targets.
  • Build metadata lists 2 build dependencies.

Recommended review

Before unattended agent use, check whether the tool reads plaintext credentials, writes remote state, publishes artifacts, or shells out to plugins.
