Conda env is activated using source activate env_name.
How can I activate the environment in pycharm ?
open
pycharm/preferences/project/Project Interpreter
And check existing interpreter. Conda environments may already be listed there.
If not exists, you can create a new conda environment with "Create Conda Env" button
If you are looking for a specific conda environment you can use 'add local'. When you click 'add local' you will input conda environment path + /bin/python
You can list all conda environment in your system with following commnad.
>>conda info --env
# conda environments:
#
tensorflow * /Users/username/miniconda3/envs/tensorflow
you can chose the approach best fits your needs.
The best PyCharm specific answer is this one by wasabi (below).
In general though, if you want to use an interpreter from within a Conda environment then you can change the location of the interpreter to point to the particular environment that you want to use e.g. /home/username/miniconda/envs/bunnies as mentioned in this comment.
However, as mentioned in this answer by Mark Turner, it is possible to have a shell script executed when activating an environment. This method will not run that shell script, but you can follow his workaround if you need that shell script run:
open a conda prompt
activate the environment
run pycharm from the conda prompt
How about environment.yml
Pycharm can create a new conda environment indeed. Unfortunately, until this issue is fixed, it won't offer environment.yml support, which means it won't install the dependencies declared there.
When working on a project based on such a file, you need to create / update the dedicated env manually on your machine:
conda env create -n <my-project>
Then remember to update each time environment.yml changes (from you or upstream).
conda env update -n <my-project>
Not ideal
As mentioned in one of the comments above, activating an environment can run scripts that perform other actions such as setting environment variables. I have worked in one environment that did this. What worked in this scenario was to:
open a conda prompt
activate the environment
run pycharm from the conda prompt
Pycharm then had access to the environment variables that were set by activating the environment.
I had the same problem i am on windows 10 professional 64 bit
my solution was to start Pycharm as adminstrator and it worked
Go to settings at the top right corner of the PyCharm IDE.
Go to Project:{Your Project Name}->Python Interpreter
Go to the settings inside here and click add:
In Add Python Interpreter select conda env
Select existing environment and click on your required conda environment path from the dropdown menu OR add the path of the python.exe file in your conda environment. As a reference, I am adding the path for my windows10 system: C:\Users\maria\AppData\Local\Continuum\anaconda3\envs<mycondaenv>\python.exe It can vary for your system based on installation configs.
It seems important to me to know, that setting project interpreter as described in wasabi's comment does not actually activate the conda environment.
I had issue with running xgboost (that I installed with conda) inside PyCharm and it turned out that it also need some folders added to PATH. In the end I had to make do with an ugly workaround:
Find out what are the additional folders in PATH for given environment (with echo %PATH% in cmd)
In the file I wish to run put to the top before anything else:
import os
os.environ["PATH"] += os.pathsep + os.pathsep.join(my_extra_folders_list)
I know this is not at all proper solution, but i was unable to find any other beside what Mark Turner mentioned in his comment.
To use Conda environment as PyCharm interpreter
activate Conda environment from Conda navigator
open PyCharm from the navigator tool list
in Conda Add interpreter section choose existing Conda environment and it automatically recognises the path of that environment's python.exe file
First , select Interpreter setting ... in right bottom of Pycharm.
Then choose python.exe from your desired conda environment.
My environment path is : C:\Users\javadsh\anaconda3\envs\tf-gpu\python.exe
Go to Pycharm -> Preferences -> Project Interpreter. At the top left of the packages table there is a plus sign, minus sign, a green circle and an eye; uncheck the green sign; that will let you have access to the packages while using conda environment.
I have created anaconda environments in my previous session but after creating a new session in my terminal it seems like anaconda forgot the names to my old environments... Can anyone tell me why this is?
I tried accessing my old environments by doing conda activate qts1, but it gave me this error:
EnvironmentNameNotFound: Could not find conda environment: qts1
You can list all discoverable environments with `conda info --envs`.
When I listed conda info --envs I get
So my previously defined environments exist, but their names have all been deleted? How do I fix this so I can use my old environments?
stupid question... forgot I installed miniconda and that was the problem... Specifically, previous environments were defined in anaconda, and not miniconda.
To access previously defined anaconda environments, just activate it through its path:conda activate /Users/usr/opt/anaconda3/envs/qts1 for example
I changed my laptop with window process to macOS and I installed some development tools and virtual environment tools.
Now I get this error message while installing pipenv
the environment variable LANG is not set!
I did googling and many peoples tell that I have to edit some part in 'profile'.
I'd like to know exactly what do I have to edit in this file and also I'd like to know if that change is valid for macOS.
Thank you very much.
I run Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS on a virtual machine on Windows 10. I've installed Anaconda 5.3 without any issues, but when I try to install an STSCI environment with the command line:
conda create -n astroconda stsci
the terminal gets stuck in "Solving Environment" (I have version 4.5.11 of conda). Yesterday I waited for about 4 hours before giving up. I would like to know if there is a known issue about this problem and if it can be related to the quantity of disk and RAM assigned to the virtual machine.
I will write a more general solution, to Conda's "Solving Environment" issue, which I had the uttermost pleasure with.
Short answer of things to try:
As already mentioned try updating Conda with conda update conda or even better, the whole base environment conda update --all.
Specify package and build version using <package>=<version>=<build> e.g. sage=8.3=py27_3. Search available versions by conda search <package>.
Like for the package, you can also specify python version and ideally some other dependencies. Check dependencies with conda info <package>.
Check current configuration inside the .condarc file or with conda config --get and check if you maybe have additional restrictions, as normally you will only find the channels defined there.
When working with additional channels put conda-forge or the channel you want to use on top and add channel_priority: strict. So your .condarc file would look like this:
channel_priority: strict
channels:
- conda-forge
- defaults
Contrariwise to the above, remove the first line and try adding --no-channel-priority to the command. This one helped me a couple times since updating to Conda 4.6.
If above does not work:
When conda seem stuck it is possibly having too many options or some conflicts resulting in the SAT solver getting clause counts of multiple millions.
To check if this is the case add -vv or --debug and you will later see lines like Invoking SAT with clause count: XXX. If it stays at one of these lines for long time, then try specifying version for packages as above. If there seem another issue, try the conda GitHub.
Another useful tip if you are using the conda-forge channel, is to go over their Tips & tricks.
I have the same problem on macOS 10.13.6.
The creation of iraf environment
conda create -n iraf27 python=2.7 iraf-all pyraf-all stsci
works fine instead.
Update: I found out that specifying the python version
conda create -n astroconda python=3.6 stsci
makes the installer work also with astroconda.
I had the same issue but then I updated Conda and it worked...
$ conda update conda
I just downloaded Anaconda and I'm using Navigator for the first time on Windows. I've been using Conda through the command line for awhile now, so I'm familiar with the concept of environments and how to use them. Right now, the only enviorment showing up in navigator is root. I want to install some additional packages, so I went ahead and cloned the root environment. This doesn't cause any errors, and seems to have worked, except I don't see my new environment.
I know the enviorments are successfully being created, as I can see them when I go through the Anaconda Prompt.
Any thoughts why this is not working?
The answer from this question : Anaconda Navigator does not show new environments
It goes like this:
1) Check that the new environment is there from conda prompt:
conda info --envs
2) update conda
conda update anaconda-navigator
3) restart your computer (I don't know if it will work by only restarting the conda navigator). Your new environment should be list in your anaconda navigator.
