Creating a new environment in conda with python 3.5 on Mac - python

I am trying to create a new environment named cv_env having python 3.5 , with this line -
conda create --name cv_env python=3.5
Although it gives an error,
PackagesNotFoundError: The following packages are not available from current channels:
python=3.5

I uninstalled and installed anaconda. This time the command worked.

Update python from 3.5 to 3.6 in conda

I want to upgrade my python version from 3.5 to 3.6 to use the new features.
I first copy the base env as base3.6 using Clone base environment in anaconda,
then I want to upgrade the python3.5 to 3.6 using conda install python=3.6, but I have this error
(base3.6) D:\Desktop\GOC-VRPTW-master>conda install python=3.6
Solving environment: failed
UnsatisfiableError: The following specifications were found to be in conflict:
- defaults/win-64::psutil==4.3.1=py35_0 -> python=3.5 -> python_abi=[build=*_cp35m] -> pypy[version='<0a0']
- python=3.6
Use "conda info <package>" to see the dependencies for each package.
Similar problem, but different in details conda install python=3.6 UnsatisfiableError
I find that reinstalling a new environment is a better choice.

How to install python with conda?

I'm trying to install python 3.9 in a conda enviroment. I tried creating a new conda env using the following command,
conda create --name myenv python=3.9
But I got an error saying package not found because python 3.9 is not yet released
So, I manually created a folder in envs folder and tried to list all envs. But I couldn't get the manually created new environment.
So, how do I install python 3.9 in a conda env with all functionalities like pip working?
To create python 3.11 conda environment use the following command
conda create -n py311 python=3.11
py311 - environment name
Update 3
To create python 3.10 conda environment use the following command
conda create -n py310 python=3.10
py310 - environment name
Update 2
You can now directly create python 3.9 environment using the following command
conda create -n py39 python=3.9
py39 - environment name
Update 1
Python 3.9 is now available in conda-forge.
To download the tar file - https://anaconda.org/conda-forge/python/3.9.0/download/linux-64/python-3.9.0-h852b56e_0_cpython.tar.bz2
Anaconda Page - https://anaconda.org/conda-forge/python
As pointed out in the comments, python 3.9 is not yet there on any channels. So, it cannot be install yet via conda.
Instead, you can download the python 3.9 executable and install it.
Once the installation is done, a new executable will be created for python 3.9 and pip 3.9 will be created.
Python:
python3.7
python3.7-config
python3.7m
python3.7m-config
python3.9
python3.9-config
pip
pip
pip3
pip3.7
pip3.8
pip3.9
pipreqs
In order to install ipython for python 3.9,
pip3.9 install ipython
On 6-Oct-2020, Python 3.9 was made available on conda-forge: https://anaconda.org/conda-forge/python. However, most of the other packages (including some of the essentials to create a basic environment) didn't explicitly support Python 3.9 yet.
However (as of 15-Oct-2020), the basic dependencies appear to have been fixed and the following command now works:
conda create -c conda-forge python=3.9 -n py39-demo
You can now simply just run
conda create --name myenv python=3.9
And it will create your python 3.9 virtual environment simply.

How to use Python3.4 with Anaconda?

I want Anaconda to use Python 3.4, but I don't know how to do it.
In Anaconda, Python version switching can be done using Anaconda Navigator, but Anaconda Navigator 1.9.7 does not seem to support Python3.4.
I need Python3.4 to use py2exe, so how can I use Python3.4 with Anaconda?
I tried the following code at conda prompt.
conda install python=3.4
However, I got the following error.
PackagesNotFoundError: The following packages are not available from current channels:
- python=3.4
Have you tried creating an environment? I'd refer to the documentation you might find that helpful here https://docs.conda.io/projects/conda/en/latest/user-guide/tasks/manage-environments.html
Try doing something like:
conda create -n myenv python=3.4
conda install -n myenv py2exe
To create an environment and then select the environment in the Anaconda Navigator

How to run Spyder with Python 3.7 with Anaconda

I have installed Anaconda on a Windows 10 machine which comes with Spyder and Python 3.6 but I wish to upgrade to Python 3.7
To create an Anaconda Environment with Python 3.7 is easy by using:
conda create --name py37 python=3.7
or:
conda create --name py370 python=3.7.0 --channel conda-forge
However starting Spyder in this environment will throw it back to Python 3.6.
I tried specifing the python.exe (for version 3.7) directly in Tools -> Settings of Spyder, however upon restarting the Spyder Kernels can't be launched and will display that they need the packages: ipykernel and cloudpickle .
When trying to conda install them in the environment the following appears:
The following packages will be DOWNGRADED:
python: 3.7.0-hea74fb7_0 --> 3.6.6-hea74fb7_0
Which would downgreade python from 3.7 to 3.6 again.
My final try was to use the command:
conda install python==3.7
which has failed with the output
Solving environment: failed
UnsatisfiableError: The following specifications were found to be in conflict:
- python-dateutil -> python[version='>=2.7,<2.8.0a0']
- python-dateutil -> six
- python==3.7
Use "conda info <package>" to see the dependencies for each package.
The question is not how to upgrade Conda to Python 3.7, but how can I get Spyder to work with Python 3.7 in its own environment
When you run spyder from the CMD/terminal, your operating system tries to find the spyder executable on your system's PATH. In this case, it will default back to the base environment's version of spyder, which runs Python 3.6.
The best way I have found so far is to install spyder to the new environment; activate the environment, and then run spyder (which should fire up the version in the local environment).
conda create --name py37 python=3.7
conda install --name py37 spyder -c conda-forge
conda activate py37
spyder
However, this requires the version of spyder to support python 3.7. Currently that is not available (as of 2 July 2018), but it should not be too long coming.
EDIT:
Spyder for Python 3.7 is available.

conda install downgrade python version

I'm trying to downgrade python version of anaconda via conda install python=3.3, but have following error:
~/anaconda3/bin$ ./conda install python=3.3
Fetching package metadata .........
Solving package specifications: .
UnsatisfiableError: The following specifications were found to be in conflict:
- gevent -> python 2.6*
- python 3.3*
Use "conda info <package>" to see the dependencies for each package.
How to resolve conflicts with the packages?
If you want to set specific version, use it like this:
WARNING: This command will overwrite the default python version system-wise
conda install python=3.6
To create environment with a specific version, you can do:
conda create -n $PYTHON36_ENV_NAME python=3.6 anaconda # set custom env name
The anaconda at the end allows the env to use all anaconda packages
For more information refere to Anaconda documentation
There are two ways to downgrade python in anaconda.
1. Downgrade python in the active environment
(This can lead to conflicts with installed packages for higher python versions)
conda activate nameOfYourEnvironment
conda install python=3.3
2. Create a new environment
(This is a more safer way, but you need to install all necessary packages again)
conda activate base
conda create --name env_name python=3.3
Hint: Use conda list before creating a new environment to get the names of all installed packages in the actual environment.
If you want to check your installed environments do:
conda env list
If you got problems in installing, make sure to run the shell as administrator (always recommended).
You can make environments with other versions of Python using this command:
conda create --name py33 python=3.3
source activate py33
Very firstly check the current version using command python --version. Then on anaconda prompt type the command conda search python which will list all the python versions available till date. Then from that list select your version and type conda install python=3.5.2 or any of your choice
