Windows installation using a conda lock file

Windows installation using a conda lock file#

If you’re having trouble running the landsat notebook from the environment created by environment.yml, try these steps to reproduce exactly the working environment I have in windows.

  1. Close all your anaconda terminal windows and in settings-> add or remove programs remove miniconda3.

  2. Open explorer and go to Home and search for miniconda3. You should not see a miniconda3 folder in your c:\Users\username folder. If you do see it, remove that folder.

  3. Install the latest version of miniconda from https://www.anaconda.com/download (Note that you can skip registration if you want).

  4. Check under add remove programs to make sure you see Miniconda3 py312_24.11.1-0

  5. Download my environment_windows.yml file. Google drive seems to think it’s an audio file, but it’s just plain text. You can look at it here. Note that unlike environment.yml, it skips the solver and uses the exact file list from my a301 environment.

  6. Move the environment_windows.yml file to your ~/repos/a301 folder, and create a new a301 environment by opening an anaconda terminal and typing:

cd ~/repos/a301
conda env create -n a301 -f environment_windows.yml
conda activate a301

  1. Start jupyter lab and run the get_landsat_bands.ipynb notebook. Note that the new environment includes earthaccess etc., so no need to install those. Report any issues on piazza.
