[conda] building new conda environments offline

[Chris Withers]

Hi All,

I spend a lot of my open source development time on public transport
without internet access.

Is there any way I can configure conda such that I can still create
environments and install packages when I don't have internet access?

Tangentially, is the web server software that supports serving conda
channels, and indeed the upload of new packages, available anywhere?

cheers,

Chris

|$ conda config --describe offline # # offline (bool) # # Restrict conda
to cached download content and file:// based urls. # # # offline: false |
Many conda operations have an |--offline| flag.

You’ll want to check out Anaconda Enterprise for that.
and indeed the upload of new packages
|conda install anaconda-client|

I meant the server side here. Anyone built an open-source conda channel
server yet?

cheers,

Hi Chris,
Running an "open-source conda channel server" is trivial -- it's just a
static web site,
so any open-source web server isall you need.

Yep, I remember the docs. I'm ideally looking for something that
supports upload too.

I know Kale's answer would be Anaconda Enterprise, but when devpi is
free and open source, that's a hard sell...

You can use conda index to build and host packages using any plain web
server, or just as a file URI [1]. Anything that can host an indexed
collection of files will work. Sure, it doesn't support uploading, but if
you're working while on public transit that's probably not an
issue.Anaconda does a great job of contributing back to open source almost
all of the work they do. But certainly if devpi does what you need, great!
You're in a nice position of having multiple options to implement your
stack.
