2. March 29,2023: Managing Software Packages with Conda Virtual Environment
Topic | Managing Software Packages with Conda Virtual Environment |
Date | March 29,2023 |
Time | 9:00 AM - 11:00 AM |
Place | Zoom Online |
Description | Conda is an open source package management system and environment management system. It quickly installs, runs and updates packages and their dependencies. It also easily creates, saves, loads and switches between environments on your computer. Though initially created for Python, Conda now becomes a powerful tool to manage software packages in genenral. For HPC users, installing and managing software packages without super user permission is often a challange. Conda is especially useful for these tasks. In this training, we will discuss how you can use Conda and virtual environments to install and manage software packages on our clusters, including frequently requested examples such as Tensorflow and PyTorch. We will also share some useful tips, such as sharing virtual environment with group members and using Conda to manage software packages beyond Python (e.g., R / Perl). Prerequisites
