# Linsk installation instructions for macOS
|
|
|
|
Here you will find the instructions on how you can install Linsk on macOS.
|
|
|
|
# Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
Linsk aims to have minimal dependencies. In this section, you can find the instructions to install the required dependencies.
|
|
|
|
## QEMU
|
|
QEMU is what Linsk uses to run virtual machines.
|
|
|
|
The easiest way to install QEMU on macOS is to use `brew` package manager.
|
|
```sh
|
|
brew install qemu
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## (Optional) Go v1.21 or higher
|
|
**OPTIONAL:** You need to install Go only if you want to use `go install` installation method or build Linsk from the bare Git repository.
|
|
|
|
You can find the installer on Go's official website: https://go.dev/dl/.
|
|
|
|
# Installation
|
|
|
|
## Using Go's `go install`
|
|
Assuming that you have an existing Go installation, you should be able to access the `go install` command which will build the project from source and put it to `$GOPATH/bin` directory. By default, `$GOPATH` is `$HOME/go`.
|
|
|
|
You can run the following command to build and install Linsk:
|
|
```sh
|
|
go install github.com/AlexSSD7/linsk@latest
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
After that, you should be able to run `linsk`, or `~/go/bin/linsk` if you have not added `~/go/bin` to `$PATH`.
|
|
|
|
## Package managers
|
|
|
|
TODO.
|
|
|
|
## Prebuilt binaries
|
|
|
|
You can find prebuilt binaries in [Linsk GitHub Releases](https://github.com/AlexSSD7/linsk/releases).
|
|
|
|
## Build from Source
|
|
Clone the repository using `git` and run `go build` to build the Linsk binary.
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
git clone https://github.com/AlexSSD7/linsk
|
|
cd linsk
|
|
go build
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
After that is done, you will be able to find the `linsk` binary in the same directory you ran `go build` in. |
