Installing Drush on Mac

install_drush_on_mac.md

Steps to install

1. From the URL https://github.com/drush-ops/drush, clone or download the zip file.
2. Make sure to check the 'Drupal Compatability' here http://docs.drush.org/en/master/install/?highlight=versions.
3. Put into home folder and extract it.
4. Rename folder as drush.
5. Drush now requires Composer in order to install its dependencies and autoload classes.
6. If you don't have composer run below commands or else skip this step.

In terminal:
curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php
sudo mv composer.phar /usr/bin/composer

7 . From the drush directory run composer install.

composer install

8 . nano ~/.bash_profile and add the following line to the end of the file:

export PATH=$PATH:/Users/myusername/drush

Replace /Users/myusername/drush with the name of the directory where you unpacked Drush.

Alternative export path would be:

export PATH="$HOME/drush:$PATH"

10 . Run below command.

source ~/.bash_profile

11 . Test drush --version

Very helpful. Thanks.
