Install Mambaforge3

Follow the steps below depending on your platform to install mambaforge. If you run into issues during these steps, please visit our troubleshooting guide for Conda. This installation guide relies on the utilization of mamba, an optimized package manager for Conda.

  • Linux Users:

    
    curl -L -O https://github.com/conda-forge/miniforge/releases/latest/download/Mambaforge-Linux-x86_64.sh
    bash Mambaforge-Linux-x86_64.sh -b -p ~/mambaforge3
    

  • Macintosh Users with Intel processors:

    
    curl -L -O https://github.com/conda-forge/miniforge/releases/latest/download/Mambaforge-MacOSX-x86_64.sh
    bash Mambaforge-MacOSX-x86_64.sh -b -p ~/mambaforge3
    

With Mambaforge installed to your home directory, export PATH, so that it may be used:


export PATH=$HOME/mambaforge3/bin:$PATH

Configure Conda to work with our INL public channel:


conda config --add channels https://conda.software.inl.gov/public
warningwarning:sudo conda

If you find yourself using sudo conda/sudo mamba... something is not right. The most common reason for needing sudo is due to an improper Conda installation. Conda should be installed to your home directory, without any use of sudo.
