Steps

1. Install base-devel

    pacman -Syu # CAUTION: this updates the whole system
    pacman -S base-devel
   

2. Run the installer script

    sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Linuxbrew/install/master/install.sh)"
   

3. Set brew environment variables

    [ -d /home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew ] && eval $(/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/bin/brew shellenv)
    
    # You most likely want to add the above line to your shell startup file as well.
   

4. Make brew doctor happy

    brew doctor
    
    # In case it complains about the linked directory
    mkdir -p /home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/var/homebrew/linked
    chown -R $(whoami) /home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/var/homebrew/linked
    
    # Ignore the warning about python being symlinked to python3. This is the default behavior in ArchLinux/Manjaro and chaning the symlink is dangerous.
   

5. Vendor-install ruby

    brew vendor-install ruby
   

6. Install gcc (as recommended by the installer script)

    brew install gcc
   

thax man i really appreciate sharing this on git-hub you saved me lots of time, wish you the best.

Quick question. So I created a virtual environment and wanted to know how I can add number 3 environement variable to my start up file. I am using arch linux distro.

Not sure what you mean by number 3, but that depends on your shell. For bash, you can add it to your bash startup files.

for second statement I got
curl :Could not resolve host:raw.githubusercontent.com

for step 3 add

 [ -d /home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew ] && eval (/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/bin/brew shellenv)

in config.fish in fish folder

awesome, thanks dude

If you in new version on Manjaro get an error, try adding the libxcrypt-compat package. It helped in my case

Hi, add the following line to your .zshrc file to set the environment variable permanently
Make sure the path the brew is correct

eval "$(/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/bin/brew shellenv)"
