Tool for Conda Environment and jupyter auto Setup

This script automates the creation of a Conda virtual environment, installs the necessary packages, and registers the environment with Jupyter.

Features

• Create Conda Environment: Automatically create a new Conda environment with a specified name and Python version.
• Install ipykernel: Install the ipykernel package in the environment to enable Jupyter integration.
• Jupyter Integration: Register the newly created environment as a kernel in Jupyter with a custom display name.
• Safety Checks: Ensures that the specified Python version is available and that the environment does not already exist.

Usage

Clone the Repository:

git clone https://github.com/syd168/condaEnvTool.git
cd condaEnvTool

Prerequisites

• Conda: Ensure Conda is installed and properly configured. The script assumes Conda is located at ~/workspace/anaconda3. Modify the CONDA_PATH variable if necessary.

Running the Script

1. Make the Script Executable:

   chmod +x mkenv.sh  rmenv.sh

2. Execute the Script:

   ./mkenv.sh <env_name> <python_version>

   • <env_name>: The name of the Conda environment to create.
   • <python_version>: The Python version for the environment (e.g., 3.8, 3.9).

3. Remove the Conda environment and its corresponding Jupyter Notebook kernel.:

   ./rmenv.sh <env_name> 

   • <env_name>: The name of the Conda environment to create.

Example --create env

./mkenv.sh myenv 3.9

Example --remove env

./rmenv.sh myenv
