Conda Installation of the dataprep AI is not supported about dataprep

@twsl I think you can add me "Weiyuan Wu [email protected]" into the maintainers list.

@twsl Thanks! I just figured out by replacing one of DataPrep's dependency we can make it a noarch package. Hopefully next release 0.2.10 (next week) we will have DataPrep appear on conda-forge channel.

Dataprep is now officially on conda-forge! https://anaconda.org/conda-forge/dataprep

[dovahcrow]

I uploaded DataPrep to conda repo sfu-db. I think you can install it through conda install -c sfu-db -c conda-forge dataprep now.

However, this build is only for Linux. I haven't figure out how to crossbuild the package for Windows and MacOS.

This is great news for the Data-prep AI and all of its users thanks to the team for putting all this together. I am sure people would now find it easier to install and use this feature and that was the whole purpose of this change request to enable it on conda. Thanks a lot once again !!

Currently, you can install our package through PyPI using command pip install dataprep. installation using conda will be supported in the future.

This seems an easy but important task to do. Shall we prioritize it?

@Waterpine can you work on it?

https://conda-forge.org/#add_recipe

[twsl]

I'd love to see this implemented. Any way I can help?

[jnwang]

Thanks @twsl for offering your help. Would like to work on this issue and let us know how long it will take?

[twsl]

who should I name as recipe maintainers? I'm not sure, if I'll be able to maintain it in the future myself.

[twsl]

nice to see, that you already pushed this. I was fiddling around with cross plattform builds

[twsl]

@dovahcrow is dataprep now noarch? should I push my current progress to conda forge or do you want to finish this?

[dovahcrow]

@twsl Yep DataPrep is now noarch. Although we successfully submitted the recipe to conda-forge, we met a problem for building it successfully. May I ask if you can submit your PR to https://github.com/conda-forge/dataprep-feedstock?
