environment.yml

Two small — though important — changes 1. Since [the release of conda 4.6](https://www.anaconda.com/blog/conda-4-6-release), the [recommended way to activate a conda env](https://docs.conda.io/projects/conda/en/latest/user-guide/tasks/manage-environments.html#activating-an-environment) is to use `conda activate <myenv>`. 2. The [conda docs say](https://conda.io/projects/conda/en/latest/user-guide/tasks/manage-environments.html#exporting-an-environment-file-across-platforms) that the correct way to export an env is to use the `--from-history` flag. This only includes packages that you’ve explicitly asked for, and only "pins" versions when you asked to do so. If you use this flag, the "macOS-specific" packages probably won't appear. |

Conda environment with environment.yml
A Binder-compatible repo with an environment.yml file.
Access this Binder by clicking the blue badge above or at the following URL:
http://mybinder.org/v2/gh/binder-examples/conda_environment/master?filepath=index.ipynb
Notes
The environment.yml file should list all Python libraries on which your notebooks
depend, specified as though they were created using the following conda commands:
conda activate example-environment
conda env export --from-history -f environment.yml
Note that the only libraries available to you will be the ones specified in
the environment.yml, so be sure to include everything that you need!
Also note that if you skip the --from-history, conda may include OS-specific
packages in environment.yml, which you would have to manually prune from
environment.yml. For example, confirmed macOS-specific packages that should
be removed are:
- libcxxabi=4.0.1
- appnope=0.1.0
- libgfortran=3.0.1
- libcxx=4.0.1
