Support for M2 : BloodHound Precompiled binary for Mac M2

[Raj Chowdhury]

the current prebuilt ARM binary in release page , doesn't work in M2 Macbook Pro

[Raj Chowdhury]

I got a way around to get it running on my M2 Macbook Pro

Install nvm first

curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.39.1/install.sh | bash

sudo nano .zshrc
# now paste this at end of the file and save the file
export NVM_DIR="$HOME/.nvm"
[ -s "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" ] && \. "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" # This loads nvm
[ -s "$NVM_DIR/bash_completion" ] && \. "$NVM_DIR/bash_completion" # This loads nvm bash_completion

now refresh the zsh session by typing

zsh

now install the targeted NodeJs version

nvm install 16

nvm use 16

Download the Bloodhound Source code

wget https://github.com/BloodHoundAD/BloodHound/archive/refs/tags/v4.3.1.zip

unzip BloodHound-4.3.1.zip

cd BloodHound-4.3.1

sudo npm ci

sudo npm run build

It would generate an ARM binary of bloodhound

cd ~/BloodHound-4.3.1/BloodHound-darwin-arm64/BloodHound.app/Contents/MacOS

❯ ./BloodHound

That's it BloodHound is up and running in M2 Macbook Pro :D
