Install: Mac OSX

This page shows you how to install kubes on Mac OSX.

Here’s a “Mac OSX Homebrew Install” Video:

Homebrew

You can install kubes via homebrew.

Install

brew tap boltops-tools/software
brew install kubes

Upgrade

brew update
brew install kubes

Uninstall

brew uninstall kubes

Cleanup

rm -rf /opt/kubes
grep -l /opt/kubes /usr/local/bin/* | xargs rm -f

The standalone installer creates a wrapper script in /usr/local/bin.

/usr/local/bin/kubes

Most users have /usr/local/bin configured in their PATH. So this wrapper should work immediately.

Important: If you have a wrapper in /usr/local/bin already, the installer will overwrite it.

You can also download the dmg and install with the Mac OSX GUI installer.
