Miniconda Installation

A Linux environment is needed to install and use Miniconda, a minimal installer for conda.

wget links below are for example. Always check for the latest distributions on the official Miniconda website.

If using a Mac, download the Mac distribution:

wget https://repo.anaconda.com/miniconda/Miniconda3-latest-MacOSX-x86_64.sh

If using WSL or Linux, download the Linux 64-Bit Installer:

wget https://repo.anaconda.com/miniconda/Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh

Install Miniconda using the downloaded file:

bash Miniconda3-latest-*-x86_64.sh

Follow the prompts:

  1. Press Enter to review the license agreement.
  2. Press q to exit the agreement view.
  3. Type yes to accept the terms.
  4. Press Enter to confirm the default installation location or enter a custom path.
  5. When asked if you wish to initialize Miniconda3, type yes.

Close and reopen your terminal for the changes to take effect.

Conda Environment

It's best practice not to install packages in the base environment. Instead, create a new environment for your project.

Summary of commands to manage environments:

Create a new environment:

conda create --name myenv

Activate the environment:

conda activate myenv

For vSNP3, please refer to the README.

For information on additional tools, see Additional Tools.

Remember, Miniconda provides a minimal set of packages. If you need additional packages, you can install them using conda install within your activated environment.
