Assuming you have conda set up for your environments , Start out by listing all of the conda environments
conda info --envs
Lets assume you want to create a new environment with a specific version of python
conda create -n azuremlenv python=3.7.7
This will download the required packages and install it
Collecting package metadata (current_repodata.json): done …
the next step is to create a new environment
conda activate azuremlenv
replace the azuemlenv with your environment name in the above statement
install notebook and ipykernel packages
conda install notebook ipykernel
The next set of packages will download the azureml-sdk
pip install azureml-sdk[notebooks, automl]
The last step is to install a kernel so that the environment comes up in the jupyter notebook
python -m ipykernel install --user --name azuremlenv --display-name "azuremlenv"
or
conda install nb_conda_kernels
the nb_conda kernels will allow conda kernels to be recognized in jupyter
once you bring up the jupyter notebook , you will see the dropdown with the corresponding ml environment that you can use the as the kernel for the notebook . the above command creates a new json file with that looks like below.
to bring up the notebook , you just need to type in jupyter notebook on the command line
if the kernel list does not show the conda env that you just installed , then type in
python -m ipykernel install --user nameofcondaenv --display-name "nameofcondaenv"
restart the notebook and the new kernel should appear in the dropdown under kernel -> change kernel section
happy coding !
