havenerk commented 1 year ago

I cannot build the pythia-book-dev conda environment. The conda dependency solver just kills itself after several minutes (maybe 10 or 15 minutes). I've downloaded and installed each package in the environment.yml file and they all install except jupyter-book and pythia-datasets. Specifying the conda-forge channel doesn't help.

I was able to recreate this issue. Using mamba instead worked for me, and we are working on updating our instructions to recommend mamba (relevant discussions here and here).

I don't think the updated instructions have been written up anywhere yet, but they will look something like this:

  1. Install mambaforge
  2. (from the Pythia Foundations repo) mamba env update -f environment.yml
  3. conda activate pythia-book-dev

This worked. I think there are some more instructions needed, but it installed, and after I conda create -n pythia-book-dev, I was able to conda activate pythia-book-dev. I think there must have been a way to name the environment with mamba, but I left that step out. Mamba is quick! Thanks for the assist #brian-rose.

Great!

We can leave this issue open until https://github.com/ProjectPythia/pythia-foundations/issues/391 is resolved.
