I see an "anaconda cloud" column now, but it does not do justice to packages that get distributed in conda-forge
or other alternate channels like astroconda
. I am afraid people will take that column as "this package is not conda
installable," which is not the case at all.
Also, the "anaconda cloud" icon shows broken link for some packages.
All packages in the astropy ecosystem should be available in the astropy channel, the fact that some are not is an issue and I opened an issue here: https://github.com/astropy/conda-channel-astropy/issues/175
This dashboard is really just intended for us maintainers, not for users looking at what can be installed with conda.
@astrofrog - There is a bug in this somewhere. For astropy the version listed on the dashboard is 2.0.11 (I suspect as it was built last), and not the latest 3.1.1 version.
Also, for packages available on the default channel, maybe we should list the version from the defaults channel? Or simply rather say astropy conda in the name of the column?
(otherwise I'm 👎 on including third party channels like astroconda
in this picture, even if we extend it to other channels I wouldn't go beyond astropy
, defaults
, and conda-forge
.)
@bsipocz - the bug is on anaconda.org, it's showing the latest uploaded version. I reported it to them.
I think I'd rather just say 'astropy conda' in the column - this is so we can check the versions we provide. It's not to say we can't add a defaults column too, but most packages aren't in defaults.
OK, I'm perfectly fine with "astropy conda".
We should add a column which is the conda badge for the anaconda.org/astropy channel. I can try working on that.
