Installation on OSX

Ensure you have a proper compilation toolchain.

This should be as simple as:

xcode-select --install

Now you can install delve using go get:

$ go get -u github.com/go-delve/delve/cmd/dlv

With this method you will not be able to use delve's native backend, but you don't need it anyway: the native backend on macOS has known problems on recent issues of the OS and is not currently maintained.

Compiling the native backend

Only do this if you have a valid reason to use the native backend.

  1. Run xcode-select --install
  2. On macOS 10.14 manually install the legacy include headers by running /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/Packages/macOS_SDK_headers_for_macOS_10.14.pkg
  3. Clone the repo into $GOPATH/src/github.com/go-delve/delve
  4. Run make install in that directory (on some versions of macOS this requires being root, the first time you run it, to install a new certificate)

The makefile will take care of creating and installing a self-signed certificate automatically.
