Installing on macOS
DMG Installer
The Jalview installer for macOS is a typical macOS Disk Image. This can be opened by finding it in the folder it was downloaded to and double-clicking on the DMG file.
You should then drag the Jalview icon onto the Applications folder icon and let go to make a copy of Jalview in your own macOS Applications folder. This will only take a few seconds to copy. After that you should eject the disk image by right clicking on the Jalview Installer window and selecting Eject “Jalview Installer”.
When you first run Jalview from the Applications folder macOS will ask you to verify that you want to launch Jalview. This is normal and will only happen the first time.
Verifying the SHA256 checksum
The download page provides a SHA256 checksum that you might want to use to verify your download. To do this in macOS, open a Terminal window and use the command
shasum -a 256 ~/Downloads/Jalview-2_11_2_0-macos-java_8.dmg
The output checksum should match the checksum displayed on the download page.
Installing using Homebrew
There is a homebrew recipe to install the Jalview.app application into your /Applications
folder the same as if you’d used the disk image installer.
brew install jalview
