"cannot execute binary file" using prebuilt on macOS

[Ben Wiley]

Thanks for this project!

I tried running the command (using both clang and gcc releases of v1.0.85:

/path/to/qmlfmt
# and also:
/path/to/qmlfmt /path/to/file.qml

Error message:

-bash: /path/to/qmlfmt: cannot execute binary file

I tried chmod +x etc, still same issue.

Unfortunately there is no build for macOS at the moment, both the clang and the GCC build are for Linux (The clang build was added to verify that it could be built on macOS with clang, but I did not verify myself).

However, pull request #22 adds instruction on how to get this using homebrew, can you try that instead? I don't use macOS so I cannot test it.

Instruction for running on macOS with homebrew have been added with the merge of PR #22
