Install Liquibase with Homebrew

Last updated: September 2, 2025

Before you begin

Confirm that Java is installed. If you use the Liquibase Installer, Java is included automatically.

Procedure

1

Install Homebrew

Install Homebrew if you need to.

To check whether it's already installed, run the following command in your terminal:

brew --version

If Homebrew is installed, the version number will be returned. If not, you'll see a message indicating the command was not found.

2

Run brew install

In your command line, run the following command:

brew install liquibase

Note: If Homebrew is not in your path, you'll need to update your shell's configuration file to include it, which will also cause Liquibase to be included. If needed, you can follow the post-installation steps provided by Homebrew to set this up.
