The steps below describe what is needed to install Zato ESB and app server under OS X.

• Install VirtualBox and Vagrant

• Download the Vagrantfile and install Zato

osx$ mkdir ~/zato && cd ~/zato
osx$ curl -O https://zato.io/download/osx/Vagrantfile
osx$ vagrant up
[snip output]

• ssh into the newly provisioned virtual machine - Zato is installed in /opt/zato, default username/password zato/zato

osx$ vagrant ssh

And that’s it - Zato is installed in the VM so you can head over to the main documentation site.

Kudos to Ernesto Revilla Derksen for his assistance in preparing the installation guide.
