You can also build using Docker containers:

IIRC docker on mac relies on docker-machine, which in turn spins up a
virtualbox VM.

Not anymore! There's a native implementation [1] but still a linux kernel
around anyway! ;-)

Good to know. There is still hope for mac users after all :)

Is there any documentation for running the Yocto build system on Mac OS

Before I go down the rabbit hole of fixing issues like this one (and I

using the bash shell), I’d like to know if anyone has build it on os x
before.

If you install all of the GNU tools using brew or similar and put them
first
on $PATH then you can get bitbake started.  Then you need to stub out
the
linux-specific bits in bitbake.  I've previously started on this work
already

(http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/poky-contrib/log/?h=ross/darwin).
The next step is figuring out how to configure OE to build and link
natively
on OSX using LLVM instead of GCC.

However all of this is mostly academic because in Sierra (iirc) onwards
there is tighter security on processes, which means that pseudo won't
work
even if you port it to macOS.

So unless you fancy some non-trivial engineering the short version is
just
use something like Docker to run a Linux system on your Mac.
