### Install via Homebrew (Mac OS X)
You can use the Homebrew package manager to install PostgREST on Mac
```bash
# Ensure brew is up to date
brew update
# Check for any problems with brew's setup
brew doctor
# Install the postgrest package
brew install postgrest
```
This will automatically install PostgreSQL as a dependency (see the [Installing PostgreSQL](#installing-postgresql) section for setup instructions). The process tends to take up to 15 minutes to install the package and its dependencies.
After installation completes, the tool is added to your $PATH and can be used from anywhere with:
```bash
postgrest --help
```
### Installing PostgreSQL ### Installing PostgreSQL
To use PostgREST you will need an underlying database (PostgreSQL version 9.3 or greater is required). You can use something like Amazon [RDS](https://aws.amazon.com/rds/) but installing your own locally is cheaper and more convenient for development.
