    Mac OS X Installer

    These binaries only work on OS X El Capitan. A video of what the installation should look like is here:

    Clone the setup respository by opening a terminal and running

        git clone https://github.com/lbryio/lbry-setup.git
    

    If you don't have xcode command line tools installed, a prompt to do so will appear the first time you run 'git'. If you were prompted and had to install xcode command line tools run the above command again, this time it'll work.

    Make the scripts executable

        cd lbry-setup
        chmod +x lbry_osx_setup_1.sh
        chmod +x lbry_osx_setup_2.sh
    

    Run the first script

        ./lbry_osx_setup_1.sh
    

    If brew wasn't installed previously you'll be prompted to hit 'enter' and to enter your password when requested.

    Once the first script is done, complete the installation with

        sudo ./lbry_osx_setup_2.sh
    

    Running

    To use the LBRY gui, just double click the LBRY app in your applications folder. If you'd rather use the console or daemon, they can be started by running sudo lbrynet-console or sudo lbrynet-daemon in a terminal window.

    Depending on your security settings, you may or may not get some network permission popups when any LBRY applications start up, be sure to click "allow", otherwise LBRY won't work.

    The first time you run a LBRY application it'll need to download the blockchain, this takes several minutes, please be patient!

    (If nothing seems to download, try forwarding ports 3333, 4444, and 8333 on your router.)
