osss MacPorts ports tree macports.osss.net

Install the osss command-line tools on macOS with MacPorts. This is a signed ports tree served as a snapshot tarball; the ports fetch prebuilt universal2 (Apple Silicon + Intel) binaries, so there is nothing to compile and no Rust toolchain required.

Set it up

1. Trust the signing key

sudo curl -fsSL https://macports.osss.net/osss-ports.pub \
  -o /opt/local/share/macports/keys/ports/osss-ports.pub

MacPorts auto-loads every *.pub in that directory — no pubkeys.conf edit needed. The snapshot tarball is signed with this signify key and MacPorts verifies it on every sync.

2. Add the ports tree

Add this line to /opt/local/etc/macports/sources.conf, above the default rsync://rsync.macports.org/… line:

https://macports.osss.net/ports.tar.gz

3. Sync and install

sudo port sync
sudo port install postgres_sql_formatter

Install only what you want — each port stands alone. On the first sync MacPorts builds a local index for the tree; that is normal and happens on your machine.

Ports

postgres_sql_formatter → pgsf
Format PostgreSQL SQL to match style-guide conventions.
postgres_schema_management → pgsm
Diff, plan, apply, and verify a PostgreSQL schema against a declarative repository.
postgres_schema_to_directory → pgstd
Extract a PostgreSQL schema into structured SQL files.
postgres_test → pgt
A Postgres testing framework: SQL-native assertions run by a Rust harness.
worktree → wt
Manage the per-branch git worktree checkouts of a multi-repo workspace.

Left is the port you install (the full project name, matching the Homebrew, FreeBSD, and Debian packaging); right is the command it provides.

Upgrades

sudo port sync && sudo port upgrade outdated picks up new releases as they ship — a new version lands in the tree within moments of its release. The tree is rebuilt from each tool's latest GitLab release automatically.

Verifying

The snapshot tarball ports.tar.gz is signed with a dedicated signify key; its detached signature is at ports.tar.gz.sig and the public key at macports.osss.net/osss-ports.pub. MacPorts fetches the signature alongside the tree on every sync and refuses a tarball it cannot verify.
