Prometheus pre build binary for Mac OS X

Question

I am trying out Prometheus on Mac OS X. I looked up the downloads and not having a direct indication of which version is for Mac. I tried docker to run the Prometheus on Mac. Just want to run it directly on Mac without docker. Does any one know which version to pick.

There were few BSDs there for pick. I know Mac is also BSD. Not sure which one matches or doesn't matter as long as it is bsd?.

Other than those binaries, I think brew install should do the work

Answer 1

The downloads page has a build for Darwin on amd64.

To quote the wikipedia page:

Darwin forms the core set of components upon which macOS (previously OS X and Mac OS X), iOS, watchOS, and tvOS are based.

This is the official binary for OSX. Other methods (such as brew install prometheus are also available).
