conda environment.yml install

I am trying to install Herbie using the conda environment.yml file but conda is finding conflicts that are causing the install to fail:

(base) jmiller@ubuntu:~$ conda env create -f environment.yml

Solving environment: \

I was able to manually create a conda environment and then install using pip

UPDATE: Turns out the conda environment I set up using pip actually doesn't want to work either. I'll keep trying and see if I can get it working.

Thanks for reporting this. Sounds like there are some install issues that I haven't properly tested for. Seems like there is an issue with the dependencies between the required packages.

What platform are you trying to install on?

Ubuntu 18.04.5 LTS (GNU/Linux 4.15.0-189-generic x86_64)

Hi @jjm0022

I tweeked the environment file so that it only includes the minimum dependencies. This might help your case.

I haven't had a chance to test it on Linux yet, but the updated installation instructions worked on my Windows PC.

(Doing some CI and making a conda-forge recipe for Herbie has been on my to-do list for at least a year, haha)

Closing this for now, but please reopen if you still have troubles installing Herbie.

Note: Herbie can now be installed with conda

conda install -c conda-forge herbie-data
