I am trying to install zipline for algorithm trading, so i have to create a conda's venv for python 3.5 version. However, after create the env, when i activating this env, there is no PARENTHESIS. If it works, the command line should be like this with (env_name) right? 

Youngs-MacBookPro:~ young$ conda env list
WARNING: The conda.compat module is deprecated and will be removed in a future release.
WARNING: The conda.compat module is deprecated and will be removed in a future release.
# conda environments:
#
base                     /Users/young/anaconda3
env_zipline           *  /Users/young/anaconda3/envs/env_zipline

The creation is worked like above and after activating i cannot see any PARENTHESIS like (env_name). 

Youngs-MacBookPro:~ young$ conda activate
Youngs-MacBookPro:~ young$

How can i fix this problem?

  • You haven't actually shown that there aren't any changes - just that there isn't `PS1` change. Please add the output from `conda config --show changeps1`. Also, please add either a `which python` or a `conda info` result before and after activation. – merv Sep 13 '19 at 00:05

Try using:

source activate <env-name>

Conda activate only works on conda 4.6 and later versions.

For conda versions prior to 4.6, type:

Windows: activate

Linux and macOS: source activate

You need to do conda init with you shell, where the path is configured and then use activate

conda init <bash|powershell|tsh|..>

Once configure, either close and open your shell or open a new one and use

conda activate <env name>

Install pip (Python Package Installer):

sudo easy_install pip

Install virtualenv:

sudo pip install virtualenv

Create a new virtualenv:

virtualenv yourenv -p python3.6

***Activate virtualenv:

source bin/activate
