Installing and maintaining UV-CDAT with conda

This is an out-of-date legacy page!

You should use the JYP steps for installing Miniconda3 page to get recent conda/Miniconda/Anaconda information

Check the UV-CDAT conda-based versions installed by JYP page to see what is maintained by JYP

Versions 2.4.1 and later of UV-CDAT are installed and maintained with the conda package, dependency and environment manager. This page is about conda/Miniconda/Anaconda installation and related notes

What should I install?

Miniconda

Note: we have shown in UV-CDAT 2.8.0 installation notes that using Miniconda for installing UV-CDAT requires indeed less space than using Anaconda

Miniconda is basically just a self contained minimal Python distribution, with only the packages required to run conda

Notes

Disk usage

conda will use hard links and share packages common to several installed environments to minimize disk usage, but there is no harm in being careful and checking things!

Useful conda commands

There is also a summary available in the Conda cheat sheet

Installation history

You can get the current list of installed packages with conda list, but it may also be useful to know the installation order:
