GNU Wget
GNU Wget is a free software package for retrieving files using HTTP, HTTPS, FTP and FTPS, the most widely used Internet protocols. It is a non-interactive commandline tool, so it may easily be called from scripts,
cron
jobs, terminals without X-Windows support, etc.To install some Linux apps on macOS with MacPorts, we will first need to search for the relevant programs. To see a gigantic list of all available packages, open Terminal, type port list and press Enter.

- The wget command is used to download files from the web and is one of the most useful commands around. But while it comes included with most distributions of Linux, it is not built into Mac OS X by default. Therefore, let’s look at installing wget.

This brief guide will take you step by step through the process of installing wget in macOS.
FYI – this guide could just as easily be called “how to install Linux Apps in macOS” – as there are a slew of *nix programs that have been ported to work via Homebrew.
With Homebrew, the “missing package manager for macOS” (more info here), you can easily install wget in macOS with just a few Terminal commands. Even better, Homebrew itself is just as easy to install. Here goes –
Install Homebrew
- Go to Applications ->Utilities and double-click Terminal. Then copy and paste the following command into Terminal and hit return (Enter) on your keyboard:
Wget For Mac Terminal
/usr/bin/ruby -e '$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)'
Wget Os X
- In all likelihood you’ll see the line The Xcode Command Line Tools will be installed. Hit the return key on your keyboard to continue.
- Enter your macOS password when prompted.
- Sit back and wait. Don’t worry if nothing seems to be happening while the software installs, just give it a bit of time.
- Once the installation has completed you’ll be back at the Terminal prompt. Keep it open, we’ll be using it in the next section too.
Install wget in macOS
- Now that you have Homebrew installed, it’s time to install wget. To do so, enter the command:
- Once again just sit back and wait. Installing wget will take less time than it did to install Homebrew, so don’t go too far away.
- Once again you’ll be back at the macOS Terminal prompt.
- Now type wget to make sure everything went smoothly.
- If you need a refresher on using wget, we’ve got you covered with a guide on using wget. You can also read the manual for wget by entering the command man wget
- Enjoy!
