Custom conda channel for building packages not currently available through conda
You will need a local conda installation. See official instructions for details on how to set this up.
Make a new conda environment and activate it
conda create -y --verbose --name condachannel27 python=2.7
conda activate condachannel27
Install conda build which is needed for package creation and update your tools.
conda install -y conda-build
conda update conda
conda update conda-build
conda install conda-verify
To add a new build
conda skeleton pypi --recursive <package name on pypi>
This will create the <package name on pypi> directory, containing meta.yaml. You may need to change this, the following resources can help you with this:
- https://docs.conda.io/projects/conda-build/en/latest/concepts/recipe.html
- https://python-packaging-tutorial.readthedocs.io/en/latest/conda.html
- conda-forge/conda-forge.github.io#345
To run the build you can do the following:
conda build <package name on pypi>
conda build purge
