Build PowerShell on macOS
This guide supplements the Linux instructions, as building on macOS is almost identical.
.NET Core 2.0 (and by transitivity, us) only supports macOS 10.12.
Environment
You will want Homebrew, the missing package manager for macOS.
Once installed, follow the same instructions to download and
install a self-hosted copy of PowerShell on your macOS machine,
and use Start-PSBootstrap to install the dependencies.
The Start-PSBootstrap function does the following:
- Uses
brewto install CMake, OpenSSL, and GNU WGet - Uninstalls any prior versions of .NET CLI
- Downloads and installs a preview version of .NET Core SDK 2.0 to
~/.dotnet
If you want to use dotnet outside of Start-PSBuild,
add ~/.dotnet to your PATH environment variable.
error: Too many open files
Due to a bug in NuGet, the dotnet restore command will fail without the limit increased.
Run ulimit -n 2048 to fix this in your session;
add it to your shell's profile to fix it permanently.
We cannot do this for you in the build module due to #847.
Build using our module
Start a PowerShell session by running pwsh, and then use Start-PSBuild from the module.
After building, PowerShell will be at ./src/powershell-unix/bin/Linux/netcoreapp2.0/osx.10.12-x64/publish/powershell.
Note that configuration is still Linux.
