Installing Learn on an Apple Mac

You need to install Docker and git.

installing git

installing Docker

Start a command window.

If docker is installed but not active (started) this command will start it:

	sudo systemctl start docker

This should only be necessary once. When you reboot, Docker should start automatically.

Download learn like so:

    git  clone  https://github.com/goblimey/learn-unix

That creates a directory called learn-unix containing the learn software.

Change directory to learn-unix and build the software like so:

    cd  learn-unix

    docker  build  .  -t  learnunix

(That's docker space build space dot space hyphen t space learnunix.)

That last command will take a few minutes and display a running commentary. If all goes well, the last few lines should be something like:

    Successfully built 446990c342ad
    Successfully tagged learnunix:latest

The build was successful and produced a Docker image with ID 446990c342ad.
