I've installed and have been using the Anaconda Python distribution, and I have started using the Anaconda (Conda) environment. I can use the standard conda install...
command to put packages from the distribution into my environments, but to use anything outside (i.e. Flask-WTF, flask-sqlalchemy, and alembic) I need to use pip install
in the active environment. However, when I look at the contents of the environment, either in the directory, or using conda list
these pip install
ed packages don't show up.
Using pip freeze
and pip list
just lists every package I've ever installed.
Is there a way to keep track of what is in each of my Anaconda env
s (both pip
and conda
installed)?
conda-env now does this automatically (if pip was installed with conda).
You can see how this works by using the export tool used for migrating an environment:
conda env export -n <env-name> > environment.yml
The file will list both conda packages and pip packages:
name: stats
channels:
- javascript
dependencies:
- python=3.4
- bokeh=0.9.2
- numpy=1.9.*
- nodejs=0.10.*
- flask
- pip:
- Flask-Testing
If you're looking to follow through with exporting the environment, move environment.yml
to the new host machine and run:
conda env create -f path/to/environment.yml
