- Open a Terminal window from the homepage.
- If you see a line like "bash: __conda_exe: command not found" at the top of the Terminal window, type "conda init", close the Terminal window, and then launch it again from the homepage.
- Create a new conda environment to install your package in,
conda create --name myshinynewenv ipykernel ibm_db
*UPDATE 02/08/2023: If you want to connect to DB2 you need to install the ibm_db package at the same time as the ipykernel package due to conflicting Python minor versions*
- Activate your new environment,
conda activate myshinynewenv
- Install your package, e.g.
conda install -c conda-forge recordlinkage
- You can also install from pip in the traditional way, ensuring you activate the environment (step 3) that you want to install the package into first.
- When you close the Terminal window and return to the homepage you should see a new python kernel with the same name as your new conda environment.
