Install miniconda

Here you find some instruction on how to install miniconda (the recommended environment to run PyECLOUD).

Download and install the most recent version of Miniconda (from here)

Something like:

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

(Provide the path for the installation, in my case /home/giadarol/Desktop/PyFRIENDS_python3/miniconda3 You will be asked whether you want to make this miniconda the default python installation for your computer (this is your choice :-) )

Activate the miniconda installation

source /home/giadarol/Desktop/PyFRIENDS_python3/miniconda3/bin/activate

Install the required packages

pip install numpy scipy matplotlib h5py cython ipython

Then clone and install PyECLOUD and other packages following the instruction in the page:
