tidal-bootstrap

This installation script is an "ad-hoc" solution. Effort is made to ensure it works, but it does not have robust error detection and hasn't been fully tested on all current macOS versions. If you have problems, please join us on the Tidal Cycles Discord installation-help channel or Club Tidal forum and we'll try to help. We'd be very happy to hear about successes too!

Summary

OS support

  • Tested on Mac Intel: Big Sur, Monterey
  • Install on M1 (Silicon) OSX Ventura has been validated
  • Support for Linux has been removed, the script will exit.

Description

tidal-bootstrap is shell script which automates the installation steps for TidalCycles live coding environment under Mac OS X.

tidal-bootstrap installs the components covered in the TidalCycles MacOS installation guide.

The script checks if the following programs are installed on the system, and installs them if they are missing:

Running tidal-bootstrap

For best results, first install the Apple Xcode command line tools.

/usr/bin/xcode-select --install

Then run this:

curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tidalcycles/tidal-bootstrap/master/tidal-bootstrap.command -sSf | sh

Note: if there are failures, the script can be run again. Correctly installed components will be skipped.

sh profiles

macOS by default does not install a shell profile (.bashrc for bash, .zshrc for zsh). Haskell requires a profile file to be present. This script uses the "touch" command to create these if they are not there then adds a command that will add the ghcup path to your PATH, by running ~/.ghcup/env
