Install the same conda environment on all your computers. The environments are centrally built using a Github Action.
Download the environment.yml file for the latest release for your operation system.
Install the environment in the environment.yml locally using:
mamba env update --name base --prune --file environment.yml
While it is possible to replace the mamba command with the corresponding conda command, by just replacing mamba with conda, the use of mamba is highly recommended.
In addition to the environment.yml files, the releases also include installers for Windows, MacOS and Linux.
This repository uses the dependabot from Github, to receive automatic pull request when one of the dependencies in the requirements.txt file changes.
Currently, dependabot does not support conda environment.yml files, so the conda environment.yml files have to be updated manually. Still the dependabot pull request help to get informed when a package changes.
When updating, adding or removing a dependency it is important to modify both the requirements.txt file and the environment.yml file.
In the environment.yml file you can use the following comments after the name and version of a package to restrict it to specific architectures:
- test=0.0.1 # [linux]to install the package only on Linux on x64- test=0.0.1 # [macos]to install the package only on MacOS on x64- test=0.0.1 # [macarm]to install the package only on MacOS on ARM- test=0.0.1 # [unix64]to install the package on Linux and MacOS on x64- test=0.0.1 # [unix]to install the package on Linux and MacOS on x64 and ARM- test=0.0.1 # [win]to install the package on Windows on x64- test=0.0.1 # [x64]to install the package on x64 independent of the operation system
Only these four labels are supported. Other labels or variations of these labels like # [not win] are not supported.
Every push to the main branch results in a new release, consequently only one release per day is possible. To release multiple updates on a day, just remove the previous release and tag.
