Tutorial Setup

Before the tutorial you should...

  • download an Anaconda3 installer file for your system.
  • Install Anaconda3 under your user account home directory: this will not affect your system install of python.
  • Download the tutorial materials from https://github.com/vestuto/reusable-python, either as a ZIP file or using git clone.
  • Locate the check_version.py script found within the downloaded course content. Unzip if needed.
  • Open a NEW terminal or command-prompt, navigate to the directory containing the check_version.py script, and run it as follows: python ./check_version.py
  • If script returns False, or an error, close your terminal/command-prompt, open a new one, and try again. If the check_version.py runs and Anaconda found is True, continue.
  • Use the terminal/command-prompt to install conda-build by running the following command: conda install conda-build
  • To test the install of conda-build, open a terminal/command-prompt and run the command: conda build --help. You should see a long help text description.
  • optional: download and install a text editor, e.g. sublime text
  • optional: if on Windows, download and install git-bash from https://git-scm.com/download/win

Notes:

  • We will also create conda environments as a student exercise, so no need to do so before hand.
  • One week before the tutorial, get the latest version of the course content by downloading ZIP, cloning the project, of "git pull" content
