Install psql on macOS with Homebrew

brew install libpq
brew link --force libpq
psql --version

libpq includes psql and other PostgreSQL client utilities. The brew link --force step symlinks the binaries into your PATH so psql is available from any terminal.

If you don’t have Homebrew installed yet:

/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"
