ZERONET INSTALLATION ON MAC OS X 10.10.3.

[tonyassassin]

Followed simple installation instructions for zero net and nothing happened. I downloaded bundle for mac opened ZeroNet app in bundle and got zero activity. I know nothing about code or open source projects so I need a little advice on getting this prog to run, thanks!

Same problem.. I double click it and nothing happens and the sites don't work

[Adrianzo]

1. Install Homebrew and then use it in a terminal to install python:
   $ brew install python
2. Install python libraries:
   $ pip install gevent msgpack-python
3. Download, Unpack & run (in newly created directory):
   $ python zeronet.py

I recommend you to use tor-browser and encrypt the folder where all these apps are installed.

Can't I install zeronet directly from brew then?

[tonyassassin]

Homebrew? Now I am confused, what is Homebrew? It looks like Alice is falling down the rabbit hole. I am looking for an idiot proof method of installation as I am not as knowledgeable as many techs. Thanks for the replies!!!

[tonyassassin]

OK, point taken! Unfortunately I only use computers for music production
and writing and don't understand a lot of the deeper intricacies of the
systems, but thanks for replying, yours Tony!

Can't help idiots, sorry.
Try READING http://letmegooglethat.com/?q=mac+homebrew about it ?

PS. sincerely, I can't solve your problem. I don't even have that
closed-source operative system of yours. The whole point of trying to
access the zeronet from there looks ridiculous to me.

Homebrew is a package system for OS X used to install CLI dependencies.

/usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
brew install python
pip install gevent msgpack-python
python zeronet.py

The comment of @Adrianzo is inappropriate and should really be deleted.

I found that to run it you have to drop the .app inside the termina, in this way it starts

[naupaw]

it work's guys, try drag .app file and hit enter.

I don't have OSX access, but double clicking was worked for me when I tried it. (probably depends on settings)

I have tried to create a proper .app package (https://github.com/HelloZeroNet/ZeroBundle/tree/master/ZeroNet.app/Contents), but it requires Apple Dev Account to sign it.

If anyone would able to sign it, then i think it should always work as double clicking on it.

Here is a simple launcher: ZeroNet Launcher for macOS

@robinvandernoord Looks good, i will test it the next time when i get a mac access. Do you have any other suggestions to make it easier to install/start on mac?

[FezVrasta]

I just use the docker image, it's the easiest way imho (if you already use Docker)

[HelloZeroNet]

Probably 90%+ mac users does not have docker installed

Thanks, this has worked and thanks all who responded to my question!
