Trouble with pip connection while installing the environment

[strainflowandmore]

I am having trouble installing the conda environment.

I am trying to install moulder, which looks like exactly what I need for an undergraduate research project where we want to some forward modeling after collecting a couple of gravity lines. So, 2D lines.

I've pasted the command I used most recently. I also tried this without the python=2.7 and got the same error. It looks like it can't find a directory on github???

I am happy to dig into the logs, but its not super clear how to do that through the documentation.

Thanks!!!

Hi @strainflowandmore.

I'm glad you are interested in this little piece of software. I must warn you (in case you didn't notice it) that this repo is not even closed to being maintained. It started as a small project to try out to put a nice GUI to the old 2d visual forward model we had in the old fatiando library. So, don't expect any bugfix or any new features in moulder.

I tried out very quickly and managed to install it and run, although I haven't run any tests to check if the results are ok. Probably for an educational project it's ok, but I would highly recommend you not to use this for a research project.

The things I did: I removed jupyter from the list of dependencies in my fatiando fork and I fixed a small problem in the url to that fork in the environment.yml file in this repo.

So, if you clone the moulder repo now, running conda env create -f environment.yml should work now. I'm using mamba instead of conda, which I find that works faster and better (specially for cases like this one where solving the dependency tree on old software can be tricky). Try conda first, and if it doesn't work, you can try with mamba .

Let me know how it goes and if there's anything else I can help you with.
