| 14 | +Installing python |
| 15 | +================= |
| 16 | + |
| 17 | +Installing python from the conda-forge channel can be achieved by adding conda-forge to your channels with: |
| 18 | + |
| 19 | +``` |
| 20 | +conda config --add channels conda-forge |
| 21 | +``` |
| 22 | + |
| 23 | +Once the conda-forge channel has been enabled, python can be installed with: |
| 24 | + |
| 25 | +``` |
| 26 | +conda install python |
| 27 | +``` |
| 28 | + |
| 29 | +It is possible to list all of the versions of python available on your platform with: |
| 30 | + |
| 31 | +``` |
| 32 | +conda search python --channel conda-forge |
| 33 | +``` |
| 34 | + |
| 35 | + |
| 36 | +About conda-forge |
| 37 | +================= |
| 38 | + |
| 39 | +conda-forge is a community-led conda channel of installable packages. |
| 40 | +In order to provide high-quality builds, the process has been automated into the |
| 41 | +conda-forge GitHub organization. The conda-forge organization contains one repository |
| 42 | +for each of the installable packages. Such a repository is known as a *feedstock*. |
| 43 | + |
| 44 | +A feedstock is made up of a conda recipe (the instructions on what and how to build |
| 45 | +the package) and the necessary configurations for automatic building using freely |
| 46 | +available continuous integration services. Thanks to the awesome service provided by |
| 47 | +[CircleCI](https://circleci.com/), [AppVeyor](http://www.appveyor.com/) |
| 48 | +and [TravisCI](https://travis-ci.org/) it is possible to build and upload installable |
| 49 | +packages to the [conda-forge](https://anaconda.org/conda-forge) |
| 50 | +[Anaconda-Cloud](http://docs.anaconda.org/) channel for Linux, Windows and OSX respectively. |
| 51 | + |
| 52 | +To manage the continuous integration and simplify feedstock maintenance |
| 53 | +[conda-smithy](http://github.com/conda-forge/conda-smithy) has been developed. |
| 54 | +Using the ``conda-forge.yml`` within this repository, it is possible to regenerate all of |
| 55 | +this feedstock's supporting files (e.g. the CI configuration files) with ``conda smithy regenerate``. |
| 56 | + |
| 57 | + |
| 58 | +Terminology |
| 59 | +=========== |
| 60 | + |
| 61 | +**feedstock** - the conda recipe (raw material), supporting scripts and CI configuration. |
| 62 | + |
| 63 | +**conda-smithy** - the tool which helps orchestrate the feedstock. |
| 64 | + Its primary use is in the construction of the CI ``.yml`` files |
| 65 | + and simplify the management of *many* feedstocks. |
| 66 | + |
| 67 | +**conda-forge** - the place where the feedstock and smithy live and work to |
| 68 | + produce the finished article (built conda distributions) |

| 83 | +Updating python-feedstock |
| 84 | +========================= |
| 85 | + |
| 86 | +If you would like to improve the python recipe, please take the normal |
| 87 | +route of forking this repository and submitting a PR. Upon submission, your changes will |
| 88 | +be run on the appropriate platforms to give the reviewer an opportunity to confirm that the |
| 89 | +changes result in a successful build. Once merged, the recipe will be re-built and uploaded |
| 90 | +automatically to the conda-forge channel, whereupon they will be available for everybody to |
| 91 | +install and use. |
| 92 | + |
| 93 | +In order to produce a uniquely identifiable distribution: |
| 94 | + * If the version of a package **is not** being increased, please add or increase |
| 95 | + the [``build/number``](http://conda.pydata.org/docs/building/meta-yaml.html#build-number-and-string). |
| 96 | + * If the version of a package **is** being increased, please remember to return |
| 97 | + the [``build/number``](http://conda.pydata.org/docs/building/meta-yaml.html#build-number-and-string) |
| 98 | + back to 0. |
