Install sqlcmd on Mac OS X

In case you need to run SQL Server scripts from your Mac, do the following to install (NOTE: I use HomeBrew.):

    • From the terminal, type:

brew tap microsoft/mssql-release https://github.com/Microsoft/homebrew-mssql-release
ACCEPT_EULA=y brew install --no-sandbox msodbcsql mssql-tools

    • You should see something like in the screenshot. Type “YES” if prompted and be on your way.
    • Once done, type:

sqlcmd
