MacOS Deployment
We do not compile software directly for MacOS. You can use a container runtime like Docker to run a Linux container on MacOS.
We advise you to use our online sandbox to test CrowdSec on MacOS since it comes with a preinstalled application.
Before getting started it is advised to read the prerequisites page to understand the requirements for running CrowdSec.
Running CrowdSec on MacOS
Open a terminal and ensure the docker runtime is currently running on your MacOS machine.

Once you have confirmed that the docker runtime is running, you can pull the CrowdSec docker image and run it.
docker pull crowdsecurity/crowdsec
Using default tag: latest
latest: Pulling from crowdsecurity/crowdsec
Digest: sha256:
Status: Image is up to date for crowdsecurity/crowdsec:latest
docker.io/crowdsecurity/crowdsec:latest
Now you can run the CrowdSec container.
docker run -d --name crowdsec -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock -v /etc/crowdsec:/etc/crowdsec -v /var/log:/var/log crowdsecurity/crowdsec
Since we are running on MacOS there might not be any applications running locally for us to detect, it is advised to use the online sandbox to test CrowdSec.
You can bring down the container down by running the following Command
docker rm --force crowdsec
