I am on a slow internet connection, so can't download Xcode today. :-(

I wish this was distributed as a brew package.

[jonasrauber]

Are you planning to do this?

[RoySegall]

I don't have access to xcode since I'm not a developer so if we have any .dmg file or a script that would be awesome.

[evanmhm]

You can just get Xcode from the App Store without a developer account, but a brew package would be pretty cool.

[RoySegall]

I not familiar with the xCdoe environment so I'm struggling with this one. I did the build but where is the compiled file?

[einsteinx2]

@RoySegall If you look in the Products group on the left panel of Xcode you'll see it there, and you can right click it to show in finder.

However, the easiest way to build it is to just clone the repo, cd into the directory, run xcodebuild with no options, then the file will be in ./build/Release/sudo in that folder

I managed to get it working using Xcode only.

Below are all commands I needed to run from start to end:

git clone https://github.com/mattrajca/sudo-touchid
cd sudo-touchid
xcodebuild 
cd build/Release
sudo chown root:wheel sudo && sudo chmod 4755 sudo
sudo cp - sudo /usr/local/bin

@rahul286 I needed to do the following instead. Just the last two lines are different.

git clone https://github.com/mattrajca/sudo-touchid
cd sudo-touchid
xcodebuild 
cd build/Release
sudo cp sudo /usr/local/bin
sudo chown root:wheel /usr/local/bin/sudo && sudo chmod 4755 /usr/local/bin/sudo

@mattrajca do we have a chance to merge it?

[RoySegall]

Does running the homebrew commands in the commit will do the trick?

[idoo]

@RoySegall yep, you it just add custom formula to your brew
just run, and keep hope, that paulche didn't change that formula in future ;)

brew tap paulche/sudo-touchid
brew install sudo-touchid

Hi guys, I follow the homebrew method and broke my sudo.
sudo: /usr/local/bin/sudo must be owned by uid 0 and have the setuid bit set
To fix this problem I had to enable the Root user: How to and fix the permissions of sudo symlink /usr/local/bin/sudo. I execute the last command of @jeremymlane.

[rahul286]

@jeremymlane I thought

sudo cp ./sudo /usr/local/bin
sudo chown root:wheel /usr/local/bin/sudo && sudo chmod 4755 /usr/local/bin/sudo

will create a problem because sudo in the second line would be used from /usr/local/bin/sudo.

I tested your method and it did not create any problem.
