How to start Grafana on Mac?

I installed Grafana via brew:

brew install grafana

It seems that location of installation is here:

/usr/local/Cellar/grafana/4.3.2

How to start Graphana service now? 'service' command does not exist on Mac.

Tried with:

brew services start grafana

and got following error:

==> Tapping homebrew/services
Cloning into '/usr/local/Homebrew/Library/Taps/homebrew/homebrew-services'...
fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-services/': The requested URL returned error: 403
Error: Failure while executing: git clone https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-services /usr/local/Homebrew/Library/Taps/homebrew/homebrew-services --depth=1
Error: Failure while executing: /usr/local/bin/brew tap homebrew/services

What is the proper way to start Grafana on Mac?

Install grafana on Mac with Brew.

Install and download Docker from this link - https://docs.docker.com/v17.12/docker-for-mac/install/#download-docker-for-mac.

You can launch the your terminal. Install latest stable:

$ ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)" < /dev/null 2> /dev/null
$ brew install grafana
$ brew update
$ brew install grafana

To start Grafana using homebrew services first make sure homebrew/services is installed.

$ brew tap homebrew/services

Then start Grafana using:

  $ brew services start grafana

Default login and password admin/ admin - http://localhost:3000

I think you might need to install Homebrew services:

brew tap homebrew/services

Otherwise the executable can be run directly at:

/usr/local/Cellar/grafana/4.3.2/bin/grafana-server
