Installing
Eelbrain can be installed from conda-forge (pre-compiled) and from the Python Package Index (PyPI; requires compilation).
The recommended way to use Eelbrain is in a separate Conda environment. The recommended tool for managing Conda environments is Mamba.
A straight forward way to create an environment with the libraries you need is using an environment.yml
file. The Alice repository’s environment.yml can serve as a starting point):
$ mamba env create --file=environment.yml
In an existing environment, Eelbrain can generally be updated with the following command (assuming the target environment is currently active):
(eelbrain) $ mamba update eelbrain
Sometimes Mamba may run into difficulties while updating and it may be easier to create a new environment instead.
