Chipwhisperer not installed on mac

Embedded Security ChipWhisperer Software

Hello,

We are having problems installing chipwhisperer on Mac Monterey 12.5.

We’ve installed homebrew and cloned chipwhisperer successfully, but once we do that, the installation page takes us to the linux installation and for a start when we try to execute the command:
sudo cp hardware/50-newae.rules /etc/udev/rules.d/50-newae.rules
it complains since there is no udev folder in a mac.
We tried to skip that step for the moment, but the command:
python -m pip install -e .
doesn’t work either.

Could you please help us solve this problem?

Many thanks in advance!

Hi,

What error do you get with python -m pip install -e .. That error will be unrelated to the udev rules line.

Thanks, this is the error that we get:
File “setup.py” or “setup.cfg” not found. Directory cannot be installed in editable mode’

Are you running that command from the chipwhisperer directory?
