PyEnvBuilder Walk-through

Local Workflow - Development

1. install pyenvbuilder:

   pip install pyenvbuilder
   

2. create an environment YAML file: my_env.yml

Simple YAML file contents example:

name: python3.7env
version: v0.1
conda_packages:
        - python=3.7

3. validate my_env.yml:

   pyenvbuilder check my_env.yml
   

4. create the environment my_env.yml:

   pyenvbuilder create my_env.yml
   

After this you should have an environment called:

python3.7env_v0.1

5. pack the environment:

   pyenvbuilder pack python3.7env_v0.1
   

This step will pack the environment into a tarball:

python3.7env_v0.1.tar.gz

Local Workflow - Deployment

1. install pyenvbuilder:

   pip install pyenvbuilder
   

2. unpack an environenment:

   pyenvbuilder unpack python3.7env_v0.1.tar.gz
   

After this step you should have an environment called:

python3.7env_v0.1

To activate the environment run:

source python3.7env_v0.1/bin/activate

Note

You do not need pyenvbuilder to unpack an environment, you can manually do it:

mkdir python3.7env_v0.1
tar -xzf python3.7env_v0.1.gz -C python3.7env_v0.1
source python3.7env_v0.1/bin/activate
conda-unpack
source python3.7env_v0.1/bin/deactivate
