Conda Env Update

If you have a YAML file, then the most efficacious way to apply it to a given env is with conda env update:

conda env update --file environment.yml

⚠️ Warning: The conda env commands don't prompt you to review and approve the transactions - it simply executes the changes. Be sure to carefully review the YAML file to ensure all of the changes are desired.

Conda Install

The format that Conda accepts for conda install --file is that which matches the output of conda list --export. It's not a YAML, but a simple text file with one package per line, similar to the one produced by pip freeze, except for the single equality sign ('=' rather than ==).

conda list --export

appdirs=1.4.3=py36h28b3542_0
asn1crypto=0.24.0=py36_0
...
zope=1.0=py36_1
zope.interface=4.5.0=py36h1de35cc_0

Note that the builds are not required, e.g., the following would also work and may actually be slightly more portable across architectures

appdirs=1.4.3
asn1crypto=0.24.0
...
zope=1.0
zope.interface=4.5.0

Unfortunately, conda install doesn't support PyPI packages; you'd have to install those separately via pip install in your activated env.

  • Note that even though `conda install` doesn't support PyPI packages, you can list PyPI packages within the environment.yml file. So by choosing the first method of using `conda env update` you can automatically have PyPI packages installed. – colelemonz Nov 23 '20 at 21:12
