Use the terminal or an Anaconda Prompt for the following steps:

1. Create the environment from the environment.yml file: conda env create -f environment.yml The first line of the yml file sets the new environment’s name.

2. Activate the new environment: conda activate myenv

3. Verify that the new environment was installed correctly: conda env list You can also use conda info --envs.

Sharing an environment

Tutorial comes from this website
You may want to share your environment with someone else—for example, so they can re-create a test that you have done. To allow them to quickly reproduce your environment, with all of its packages and versions, give them a copy of your environment.yml file.

1. Activate the environment to export: conda activate myenv Replace myenv with the name of the environment

2. Export your active environment to a new file: conda env export > environment.yml

3. Email or copy the exported environment.yml file to the other person.
