Installing svm on OSX

Prerequisites

.NET 4.5 is the minimum requirement for scriptcs which can be realised via mono. Download and install the latest version as an OSX Package (.pkg) from:

http://www.mono-project.com/download/#download-mac

Install

Run the following command in a terminal. This does NOT require the user to be root.

bash <(curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/scriptcs-contrib/svm/master/install/installer.sh) && export PATH="$HOME/.svm/bin:$HOME/.svm/shims/:$PATH"

This will download the bash based installer, execute the installer using bash and set the PATH correctly in the terminal to allow you to start using svm right away.

svm will be installed to $HOME/.svm. Example: ~/paul/.svm

Type the following in the terminal to get started:

svm help

Previous Versions

svm supports in-place upgrades via the installers. The existing versions and active versions will be left in-place.
