I'm trying to install GDAL on a Mac so I can use ogr2ogr against an Oracle database. This was as easy as:
brew install gdal
However, it seems the Homebrew edition of GDAL doesn't ship with Oracle support. When I list install options with brew options gdal, I see flags for thigns like MySQL and Postgres but nothing for Oracle. Does anyone know how to build GDAL using Homebrew but include Oracle/OCI support?

Have you tried the method in my answer? I rarely use Macs so some feedback would be usefuluser2856– user28562017年01月25日 22:30:50 +00:00Commented Jan 25, 2017 at 22:30

Yes, thanks for sharing that. That seemed to be the right package but because of the nature of Oracle it requires you to place a zip file of the Instant Client in the Homebrew cache. I already had the IC installed and didn't want to muck with it, so I opted not to use this. But it may be helpful for others, so I'll mark it as solved. Thanks!bertday– bertday2017年01月26日 00:52:37 +00:00Commented Jan 26, 2017 at 0:52

Have you tried osgeo4mac?
brew tap osgeo/osgeo4mac
brew install osgeo/osgeo4mac/gdal1-oracle
#or for GDAL 2x
brew install osgeo/osgeo4mac/gdal2-oracle
More info on taps is available in the homebrew documentation.
Note:
osgeo4mac is broken on Big Sur - #1410.

As of 2021年09月19日 this no longer works. Or at least for Big Sur 11.5.2. Tapping osgeo causes a lot of errors and packages do not install.jebyrnes– jebyrnes2021年09月20日 03:58:19 +00:00Commented Sep 20, 2021 at 3:58
