MAC and EDD

Rob edited this page Jun 3, 2021 · 2 revisions

EDD may run on a MAC, with reservations. No speech is available. Some UI elements may be a little different.

Note, user kouwei32 has confirmed that the script builds a native x86 Mono executable for macOS Mojave and earlier Mac systems, to allow windows.forms to work properly. windows forms does not work in x64 bit, so this won't work on versions Catalina or later.

Building EDD on Mac

You need Mono, which is a c# solution for Mac.

From https://www.mono-project.com/docs/getting-started/install/mac/ is instructions on how to do this. Install Mono on the Macintosh.

You also need Git installed https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Getting-Started-Installing-Git

Then check out EDD, in your home folder:

git clone https://github.com/EDDiscovery/EDDiscovery.git
cd EDDiscovery
git submodule init
git submodule update
nuget restore
chmod /x+ monobuildmac
./monobuildmac
cd EDDiscovery/bin/Release
mono --debug EDDiscovery.exe

The appfolder is present under ~/.local/share/EDDiscovery
