PythonSetupForIFTPipeline.jl

Python Setup for IFTPipeline.jl

This project is designed to initialize the Python Environment for IFTPipeline.jl. It should be used once before IFTPipeline.jl is instantiated. It will:

• Build PyCall using the Conda.jl package.

Since the base environment is shared between all PyCall instances by default, it only needs to be run if the Conda environment is:

• missing – as in a new installation, or
• broken – new incompatible dependencies have been added.

The goal is to remove the need for this subpackage at some point in future.

User Guide

To use, run:

julia --project="PythonSetupForIFTPipeline.jl" PythonSetupForIFTPipeline.jl/setup.jl

If this fails, try removing the existing Conda installation for Julia:

rm -r ~/.julia/conda/

... and then retry.

If you're working on a system where the home directory might not be reliable, e.g. you're building a Docker container but you want to use it with Apptainer which mounts things in different ways, you may want to change the default location for the Conda installation.

Export a different path in CONDA_JL_HOME before running setup:

export CONDA_JL_HOME="/opt/conda-env/"
julia --project="PythonSetupForIFTPipeline.jl" PythonSetupForIFTPipeline.jl/setup.jl
