!CHAPTER Mac OS X
The preferred method for installing ArangoDB under Mac OS X is
[homebrew](#homebrew). However, in case you are not using homebrew, we
provide a [command-line app](#commandline-app) or [graphical
app](#graphical-app) which contains all the executables.
!SECTION Homebrew
If you are using [homebrew](http://brew.sh/),
then you can install the ArangoDB using *brew* as follows:
brew install arangodb
This will install the current stable version of ArangoDB and all
dependencies within your Homebrew tree. Note that the server will be
installed as:
/usr/local/sbin/arangod
You can start the server by running the command `/usr/local/sbin/arangod &`.
The ArangoDB shell will be installed as:
/usr/local/bin/arangosh
You can uninstall ArangoDB using:
brew uninstall arangodb
However, in case you started ArangoDB using the launchctl, you
need to unload it before uninstalling the server:
launchctl unload ~/Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew.mxcl.arangodb.plist
Then remove the LaunchAgent:
rm ~/Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew.mxcl.arangodb.plist
**Note**: If the latest ArangoDB Version is not shown in homebrew, you
also need to update homebrew:
brew update
!SUBSECTION Known issues
- Performance - the LLVM delivered as of Mac OS X El Capitan builds slow binaries. Use GCC instead,
until this issue has been fixed by Apple.
- the Commandline argument parsing doesn't accept blanks in filenames; the CLI version below does.
!SECTION Graphical App
In case you are not using homebrew, we also provide a graphical app. You can
download it from [here](https://www.arangodb.com/download).
Choose *Mac OS X*. Download and install the application *ArangoDB* in
your application folder.
!SECTION Command-Line App
In case you are not using homebrew, we also provide a command-line app. You can
download it from [here](https://www.arangodb.com/download).
Choose *Mac OS X*. Download and install the application *ArangoDB-CLI*
in your application folder.
Starting the application will start the server and open a terminal window
showing you the log-file.
ArangoDB server has been started
The database directory is located at
'/Applications/ArangoDB-CLI.app/Contents/MacOS/opt/arangodb/var/lib/arangodb'
The log file is located at
'/Applications/ArangoDB-CLI.app/Contents/MacOS/opt/arangodb/var/log/arangodb/arangod.log'
You can access the server using a browser at 'http://127.0.0.1:8529/'
or start the ArangoDB shell
'/Applications/ArangoDB-CLI.app/Contents/MacOS/arangosh'
Switching to log-file now, killing this windows will NOT stop the server.
2013-10-27T19:42:04Z [23840] INFO ArangoDB (version 1.4.devel [darwin]) is ready for business. Have fun!
Note that it is possible to install both, the homebrew version and the command-line
app. You should, however, edit the configuration files of one version and change
the port used.
