OLA Install Using MacPorts
From wiki.openlighting.org
Installing OLA using MacPorts is very easy. It can take a while the first time because you'll need to download XCode & the OLA dependancies.
- Install Xcode . Xcode comes in two versions: XCode 4 which you need to pay for and XCode 3 which is free. XCode 3 works just fine.
- Install MacPorts, follow the instructions on the site.
- Install OLA and all the dependancies by running
sudo port install ola
There are different features that can be turned on or off. In the MacPorts world these are known as variants. You can see what variants are available for ola by running
port variants ola
For 0.8.18 this is what you get:
[+]http: Build with embedded web server
[+]libusb: Build with libusb support
python26: Enable the Python 2.6 API
* conflicts with python27
[+]python27: Enable the Python 2.7 API
* conflicts with python26
universal: Build for multiple architectures
The + sign means the variant is enabled. In this instance the ola port will be built with support for the web interface, libusb support and the Python 2.7 client libraries.
