转载自：https://cloud.tencent.com/developer/article/1450128

Edirect是非常有用的工具
其使用要用来perl，mac都预先安装了perl
安装的时候最好按下面进行
打开终端

cd ~
/bin/bash
perl -MNet::FTP -e \
    '$ftp = new Net::FTP("ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov", Passive => 1);
    $ftp->login; $ftp->binary;
    $ftp->get("/entrez/entrezdirect/edirect.tar.gz");'
gunzip -c edirect.tar.gz | tar xf -
rm edirect.tar.gz
builtin exit
export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/edirect >& /dev/null || setenv PATH "${PATH}:$HOME/edirect"
./edirect/setup.sh

显示和提示如下

Trying to establish local installations of any missing Perl modules
(as logged in /Users/ucco/edirect/setup-deps.log).
Please be patient, as this step may take a little while.

Entrez Direct has been successfully downloaded and installed.

In order to complete the configuration process, please execute the following:

  echo "source ~/.bash_profile" >> $HOME/.bashrc
  echo "export PATH=\${PATH}:/Users/ucco/edirect" >> $HOME/.bash_profile

or manually edit the PATH variable assignment in your .bash_profile file.
echo "export PATH=\$PATH:\$HOME/edirect" >> $HOME/.bash_profile

为了验证是否安装完成，终端输入下面代码

echo "***********************" > installconfirm
echo "esearch version:" >> installconfirm
esearch -version >> installconfirm
echo "xtract version:" >> installconfirm
xtract -version >> installconfirm
echo "EDirect install status:" >> installconfirm
