(转)Building MariaDB on Mac OS X using Homebrew
https://kb.askmonty.org/en/building-mariadb-on-mac-os-x-using-homebrew/
Work has been done to provide MariaDB via the Homebrewpackage manager, which has been described as the missing package manager for Mac OS X. Once you have installed Homebrew (with the command linebrew), all you have to do is:
brew update
Compiling MariaDB
You can then run searches (brew search mariadb) , and if you would like to get more information about it, you could do: brew info mariadb. When you're ready to install MariaDB, simply execute:
brew install mariadb
As of MariaDB 5.2.6, it will pull in readline, and the output will be similar to below:
lovegood:~ byte$ brew install mariadb
Warning: It appears you have Macports or Fink installed
Software installed with other package managers causes known problems for
Homebrew. If formula fail to build uninstall Macports/Fink and reinstall any
affected formula.

==> Caveats
This formula is keg-only, so it was not symlinked into /usr/local.
OS X provides the BSD libedit library, which shadows libreadline.
In order to prevent conflicts when programs look for libreadline we are
defaulting this GNU Readline installation to keg-only.
Generally there are no consequences of this for you.
If you build your own software and it requires this formula, you'll need
to add its lib & include paths to your build variables:
LDFLAGS: -L/usr/local/Cellar/readline/6.2.1/lib
CPPFLAGS: -I/usr/local/Cellar/readline/6.2.1/include

Set up databases with:
unset TMPDIR
mysql_install_db
If this is your first install, automatically load on login with:
cp /usr/local/Cellar/mariadb/5.2.6/com.mysql.mysqld.plist ~/Library/LaunchAgents
launchctl load -w ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.mysql.mysqld.plist
If this is an upgrade and you already have the com.mysql.mysqld.plist loaded:
launchctl unload -w ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.mysql.mysqld.plist
cp /usr/local/Cellar/mariadb/5.2.6/com.mysql.mysqld.plist ~/Library/LaunchAgents
launchctl load -w ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.mysql.mysqld.plist
Note on upgrading:
We overwrite any existing com.mysql.mysqld.plist in ~/Library/LaunchAgents
if we are upgrading because previous versions of this brew created the
plist with a version specific program argument.
Or start manually with:
mysql.server start
Warning: m4 macros were installed to "share/aclocal".
Homebrew does not append "/usr/local/share/aclocal"
to "/usr/share/aclocal/dirlist". If an autoconf script you use
requires these m4 macros, you'll need to add this path manually.
==> Summary
/usr/local/Cellar/mariadb/5.2.6: 231 files, 44M, built in 10.9 minutes
lovegood:~ byte$
Installing MariaDB
Once that is complete, you need to do the following:
unset TMPDIR mysql_install_db
When you run mysql_install_db, you will see the following output:
lovegood:~ byte$ mysql_install_db Installing MariaDB/MySQL system tables in '/usr/local/var/mysql' ... OK Filling help tables... OK To start mysqld at boot time you have to copy support-files/mysql.server to the right place for your system PLEASE REMEMBER TO SET A PASSWORD FOR THE MariaDB root USER ! To do so, start the server, then issue the following commands: /usr/local/Cellar/mariadb/5.2.6/bin/mysqladmin -u root password 'new-password' /usr/local/Cellar/mariadb/5.2.6/bin/mysqladmin -u root -h lovegood.local password 'new-password' Alternatively you can run: /usr/local/Cellar/mariadb/5.2.6/bin/mysql_secure_installation which will also give you the option of removing the test databases and anonymous user created by default. This is strongly recommended for production servers. See the MariaDB knowledge or the MySQL manual for more instructions. You can start the MariaDB daemon with: cd /usr/local/Cellar/mariadb/5.2.6 ; /usr/local/Cellar/mariadb/5.2.6/bin/mysqld_safe --datadir=/usr/local/var/mysql You can test the MariaDB daemon with mysql-test-run.pl cd /usr/local/Cellar/mariadb/5.2.6/mysql-test ; perl mysql-test-run.pl Please report any problems with the /usr/local/Cellar/mariadb/5.2.6/bin/mysqlbug script! The latest information about MariaDB is available at http://www.askmonty.org/. You can find additional information about the MySQL part at: http://dev.mysql.com Support MariaDB development by buying support/new features from Monty Program Ab.

Alternatively consider joining our community based development effort: http://askmonty.org/wiki/index.php/MariaDB#How_can_I_participate_in_the_development_of_MariaDB lovegood:~ byte$
Starting MariaDB
Once that is complete, and if you are running this in a production instance, please remember to run mysql_secure_installation. If you're just testing it, follow the instructions to start it out:
lovegood:~ byte$ cd /usr/local/Cellar/mariadb/5.2.6 ; /usr/local/Cellar/mariadb/5.2.6/bin/mysqld_safe --datadir=/usr/local/var/mysql 110614 20:27:38 mysqld_safe Logging to '/usr/local/var/mysql/lovegood.local.err'. chown: /usr/local/var/mysql/lovegood.local.err: Operation not permitted 110614 20:27:38 mysqld_safe Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /usr/local/var/mysql
And that's done! Now you can just run mysql -uroot and login.

Upgrading MariaDB
First you need to update your brew installation. You do this by issuing the brew update command. Next you simply run:
brew upgrade mariadb
You may see error messages as follows if you are running OS X 10.7:
Warning: Your Xcode (4.3.3) is outdated Please install Xcode 4.5.2.
You can safely ignore these errors and upgrade to 5.5.28 without issue.
Known Issues
Currently (5.3 series), the default compile has some engines that are missing. This is noted via:

Why are there no binaries for Mac on the download page
MariaDB is an open source project and to be able to provide binaries for a platform we need someone to:
- Provide a Mac OSX buildbot slave where we can do the builds.
- Help us creating proper Mac OSX packages.
- Sponsor us with a Mac OSX machine for the builds.
Other resources
- mariadb.rb on github
- Terin Stock (terinjokes) who is the packager for Homebrew
Hi, I followed this tutorial and MariaDB works like a charm under Mac OSX Lion, but I can not start it automatically. I think it can related to the fact that my datadir is not the default one, so I have to pass arguments to the plist file. Any idea how can I do it ?
