Sign MacOS binaries

[mauromorales]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

When trying to run on MacOS, you need to give the binary permision via Gatekeeper which can get annoying see: https://github.com/mudler/LocalAI/pull/2389

Describe the solution you'd like

You can sign the binaries so all that the user needs to do is to accept in a pop up when running for the first time, which is a lot more user friendly. See https://developer.apple.com/developer-id/

Describe alternatives you've considered

Keep allowing in Gatekeepr

Hey @mauromorales !

I agree that the gatekeeper stuff gets annoying. That's why a while ago I added the osx-signed make target.

This will let you self-sign a binary that OSX won't complain about.

I currently don't have an Apple Developer Program membership to generate public signatures, so until that changes, someone else on the team gets one, or someone corrects me that I'm wrong about needing it at all, I think self-signing will be the way to go!

@dave-gray101 makes sense, it's not a huge problem but more like a paper cut. I'm also checking if I can create a brew formula to avoid this altogether.

Opened a PR for the brew formula, might need some tuning because I'm not passing any special flags plus eventually, it might be nice to also add a service or such, but at least I can install and configure using env vars

Having this app on mac via brew would be great. Makes life much easier

[mauromorales]

It took a bit but LocalAI formula has been merged https://formulae.brew.sh/formula/localai

Please test it out and help to improve it.

I will close this issue since IMO the brew solution is good enough
