- Follow the below steps as pre-requisites so that you can successfully use A2ATK on a Mac.
7+
8+
1. Install homebrew if you do not have it. Open a terminal and run
9+
10+
/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL [https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh))"
11+
12+
More info can be found here: [https://brew.sh/](https://brew.sh/)
13+
14+
1. Once homebrew is installed, Install PowerShell.
15+
16+
brew install powershell
17+
18+
3. The executable to get into PowerShell is "pwsh". In a terminal you can type "pwsh" and you will get a PowerShell prompt.
19+
20+
└🤘-> pwsh
21+
PowerShell 7.5.2
22+
PS /Users/user>
23+
24+
4. Now install the required modules.
25+
26+
Install-Module Az (This is the Azure PowerShell Module)
27+
Import-Module Az (Import the module)
28+
Install-Module -Name Az.CostManagement (This is the Azure Cost Management PowerShell Module)
29+
Import-Module Az.CostManagement (Import the module)
30+
Install-Module -Name ImportExcel (This is the Excel PowerShell Module) - So that it can export to Excel correctly.
31+
32+
One last package that needs to be installed to get the Excel formatting done correctly is mono-libgdiplus
33+
You can do this by running
34+
35+
brew install mono-libgdiplus
36+
37+
Now just follow the rest of the steps in the Docs as if you were running Windows. All the commands will work in pwsh from the Mac terminal.
