Compiling Sequel Pro Yourself

Sequel Pro seems to have stopped maintaining, and there is a new replacement: Sequel Ace

Sequel Pro is a very good MySQL client tool for the macOS platform, (mainly because I am poor and cannot afford Navicat), but one problem is that every time the macOS system is updated, there will be more or less unstable crashes.

In order to solve this problem, you can compile an APP yourself, which will be much more stable.

In addition, you can also download the official test compiled version.

Download official source code

Compile

Enter the source code folder and execute:

Terminal window
sed -i '' -e 's/Debug/Release/g' Makefile
Terminal window
make

According to the prompts of the compilation result, find the compiled folder, put the compiled APP into the Application folder and you can use it!

Because it is a version compiled by my own machine, it is much more stable.

At the same time, you can also open Xcode for compilation. Compiling with a graphical interface is relatively simple, so I won’t go into details here.

[scode type=“yellow”] If the compilation lacks header files or something, you can refer to my other log on macOS installation of commonly used header files. [/scode]
