installing-clickhouse-locally-osx.md

1. First install Docker: https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-mac/install/
2. Create docker instance based on Clickhouse Server image

docker run -d --name oec-clickhouse -p 9000:9000 -ulimit nofile=2662144:2662144 yandex/clickhouse-server

-d = Run container in background and print container ID -p = Publish a container’s port(s) to the host -ulimit nofile=xxxx = This sets the number of open files (n = number, o = open, file = files)

3. Connect to image with bash:

docker exec -it oec-clickhouse bash

4. Use Clickhouse cli now that we're in docker image

clickhouse-client --database=oec

5. Celebrate! 🥳
