C9 IDE - Conda command not found

Question

I am trying to install conda on c9-ide. My c9 terminal is running on Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS.

I did the following:

> wget https://repo.continuum.io/miniconda/Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh
> sudo bash Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh

I basically clicked enter and yes throughout the installation.

My install location is: /home/ubuntu/miniconda3

I tried to close and reopen the terminal, but I still get:

> conda
bash: conda: command not found

Any suggestions what I am doing wrong?

I appreciate your replies!

Answer 1

You have to add the conda function to your shell by adding the following to your .bashrc file:

source /path/to/miniconda3/etc/profile.d/conda.sh && conda activate base

This procedure is detailed in the release notes for Conda 4.4: https://github.com/conda/conda/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md#440-2017-12-20

For conda versions older than 4.4, you need to add the conda binary to your PATH with the following in your .bashrc file

export PATH=/path/to/miniconda3/bin:$PATH
