How to install xcode 8 from terminal in vagrant? - xcode

Having a running vagrant instance of macosx 10-12, when running
xcode-select --install
I get:
xcode-select: note: install requested for command line developer tools.
But the problem is nothing pops up and it finishes on that. What should I do in this case? I also cannot download the xcode 8 package manually from the store as only install option is present and there is no gui in vagrant

I suggest you to download .xip file of xcode and install it. Below is the link to download xcode or anyother development tool for apple developer.

Brew install on Mojave

I did these steps:
Updated to Mojave
Installed Xcode 10 beta3
Ran this command: sudo xcode-select -switch /Applications/Xcode-beta.app/
Now I'm trying to install node8:
brew install node#8
And it gives me this error:
Error: The Command Line Tools header package must be installed on Mojave.
The installer is located at: /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/Packages/macOS_SDK_headers_for_macOS_10.14.pkg
Still, doing
install -pkg /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/Packages/macOS_SDK_headers_for_macOS_10.14.pkg
does nothing, since there's no such file in my system. Where could I get it?
Go to /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/Packages/macOS_SDK_headers_for_macOS_10.14.pkg location and install package manually. And brew will start working.
I want to try and answer this question and also for those that come later that installed Mojave and had an older Xcode version installed. The process is the same minus that if you have Xcode 10, you don't need to install it again from my understanding.
The folder is hidden and was not accessible even with a sudo find command, however, I figured out that copying the absolute path and then pasting it in your browser address bar will give you the download and access to the folder that you need to fix brew install.
I posted a video here- https://youtu.be/GfnhSirTCGM that walks you thru part of my steps above. After you do the SDK headers download, its likely that unless you already are running Xcode 9.4, you will need to visit, https://developer.apple.com/download/more/ and look for Xcode 9.4 to install. Also grab the 10.14 command line tools as well. The lesson that should be learned here is that Apple calls it "Beta" for a reason and if you are a developer that knows the pains of setup, it is a bad idea. I hope that I was helpful! The last thing is, INSTALL XCODE THEN COMMAND LINE TOOLS-IN THAT ORDER OR IT ERRORS OUT! and then we do this all over again. Cheers!
It appears as though Apple has released a patch for the bug and it is available through the system preferences. 14 July 2018
Broken command line tools:
Xcode Location on the Apple developers website:
Location of command line tools:
Do not install Xcode from the Mac App Store because a different version is required!
Command line tools 10.14 update:
As of October 2018, the solution for making brew and brew install succeed is to:
install latest Xcode fom AppStore
run Xcode and install command line tools
add the line before to your profile or somethign similar
export CFLAGS="-I/usr/local/include -L/usr/local/lib -I$(brew --prefix openssl)/include -I$(xcrun --show-sdk-path)/usr/include"
No need to download Xcode manually, but you may want to remove the beta version if you installed it.
The magic part is at the end, where xcrun obtains the correct location of the SDK.
In terminal, you should first input the commands below
cd /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/Packages
open .
you will open the directory on desktop,
then double click the pkg file to install it.

Nativescript doesn't recognize Xcode (High Sierra)

I'm on High Sierra with Xcode Version 9.0.1 (9A1004).
When running tns doctor I get the following warning:
WARNING: Xcode is not installed or is not configured properly.
You will not be able to build your projects for iOS or run them in the iOS Simulator.
To be able to build for iOS and run apps in the native emulator, verify that you have installed Xcode.
If I run the installation script, furthermore I get:
xcode-select: error: tool 'xcodebuild' requires Xcode, but active developer directory '/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools' is a command line tools instance
Xcode is not installed or not configured properly. Download, install, set it up and run this script again.
As you might have guessed, I have Xcode installed from the app store and I've also installed cocoapods and xcodeproj. This is the only warning that I get.
Any suggestions?
Run the following command:
sudo xcode-select --reset
I found this answer here:
http://overengineer.net/fixing-nativescript-s-xcode-is-not-installed-or-is-not-configured-properly-on-macos
I had this problem today, but running the recommended command didn't help. I found that running the command
$ tns doctor
walked me through a series of prompts and corrected the issue. I did have to restart my terminal after the program completed in order for it to take effect.
Open Xcode than go to Preferences -> Locations -> Command Line Tools after that it'll automatically take a path for the same. The system may ask for sudo password.

Xcode installing on mac

I am new to mac and I want to install Xcode. I have macOS Sierra Version 10.12.2. I found online that I have to run in terminal:
xcode-select --install
I did that but I get this:
xcode-select: error: command line tools are already installed, use "Software Update" to install updates
However, I can't find it in Application folder or with Spotlight Search and there is no Software Update to be done. Also, I found online that I have to download it from App Store and I am a bit confused. I can install it from terminal (and if so, why is it not working) or I have to download it from App Store?
Thank you!
xcode-select: error: command line tools are already installed, use
"Software Update" to install updates
It shows that your operating system has already installed xcode-select.
Finding your xcode-select. Go to Terminal and type
xcode-select --print-path
It shall return the location of your xcode-select to you:
/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools
Xcode: develop an app for Apple products
xcode-select: command-line tool
Depending on what you want to do with Xcode, xcode-select is way smaller than it, 8.1GB vs. nothing.
2018 and I had the same issue. Installing XCODE from the App Store did not resolve this.
I Had to download the command line tools for my XCODE and Apple Version.
https://developer.apple.com/download/more/
Searched for XCODE on that page above and picked the right version for me.
After installation of the DMG I could continue with Brew Installation.
You don't install Xcode from terminal, you have to go to develloper.apple.com in order to download the latest versions. Here's the link to save you some time:
Link to Xcode
Plus the version available depends on what Mac Osx version you have.
Was having the same issue after some system update, cannot even run things like make install.
verify your path by xcode-select --print-path, which might be /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer(need to be updated at last)
go to apple develper site, login, search command line tools, download the latest dmg, install. (better option than the 10+GB Xcode)
now update the path in step 1 by running sudo xcode-select --switch /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools.
verify again by running the xcode-select --print-path.
Now it should be good to go.

How to continue using Git on mac after uninstalling Xcode (with Android Studio)?

I have installed Git on my Mac. When I do a "whereis" in my terminal the route is:
/usr/bin/git
I use Android Studio and the GitHub desktop client and had no problems so far.
Previously I had installed Xcode, but I uninstalled it a week ago. Since then, Android Studio does not detect Git, I get the following error:
xcrun: error: active developer path
("/Volumes/Vega/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer") does not
exist, use xcode-select --switch path/to/Xcode.app to specify the
Xcode that you wish to use for command line developer tools (or see
man xcode-select)
Android Studio shows the same executable path to Git
indicating the terminal (/usr/bin/git), but when I click on the "test" button it displays the same error.
I do not handle very well Git from the terminal, always use the desktop client.
What do I have to do to continue using Git on my Android studio (or anywhere) now that I uninstalled Xcode?
I searched for information but I can not fix it.
If commands sudo xcode-select --reset and xcode-select --install does not work for you and you dont want to install xcode then just reinstall git manually via brew:
brew reinstall git
And open new terminal session
Worked for me
sudo xcode-select --reset
Will reset your paths to the defaults if the command line tools are already installed.
You should install the Xcode command line tools at the very least. If you're not a registered Apple Developer, however, I'm not sure how to get hold of them if Xcode is not installed. If you are a registered Apple Developer, you can get them from the Apple Developer Download site. It' probably best to re-install Xcode and you will get them as a system update.
That will give you a minimal development environment, and if you need additional tools/libraries you can build them via Macports with the command line tools installed.
Try this :
xcode-select --install

How to install command line tools on OSX Mavericks

I am running OSX Mavericks (10.9) and while trying to update a bundle in rails, I get the following error message:
"You have to install development tools first."
I have Xcode already installed and there seems to be no option to install the tools from within the Xcode 4.6. How can I download and install command line tools via terminal?
