Build radioconda

This repository holds cross-platform installers for a collection of software radio packages bundled with the conda package manager. These installers will get you started with an environment that includes the packages listed here. Once installed, you will have a fully functional conda distribution, meaning that you can install additional packages (if available through conda-forge) or upgrade to the latest versions using conda or mamba, e.g.:

mamba install <pkg-name>
mamba upgrade --all

Think of radioconda as an alternative to Anaconda or Miniforge, but specialized for software radio.

NOTE: Radioconda is built from packages maintained by the conda-forge project. If you have questions or issues that are specific to the conda installation of a particular package, please report them at the corresponding feedstock repository.

Download

Radioconda installers are available here: https://github.com/ryanvolz/radioconda/releases.

OS Architecture Installer Type Download
Linux x86_64 Command-line radioconda-Linux-x86_64.sh
macOS x86_64 Command-line radioconda-MacOSX-x86_64.sh
macOS x86_64 Graphical radioconda-MacOSX-x86_64.pkg
Windows x86_64 Graphical radioconda-Windows-x86_64.exe

Install

For a command line install, download the installer and run,

bash radioconda-*-Linux-x86_64.sh   # or similar for other installers for unix platforms

For a graphical install, download the installer and double-click it.

Non-interactive install

For non-interactive usage, look at the options by running the following:

bash radioconda-*-Linux-x86_64.sh -h   # or similar for other installers for unix platforms

or if you are on Windows, run:

start /wait "" build/radioconda-<VERSION>-Windows-x86_64.exe /InstallationType=JustMe /RegisterPython=0 /S /D=%UserProfile%\radioconda

Usage

Each installer package is built from a specification directory in installer_specs using conda constructor. An installer can be built manually using the build_installer.py script. The specification directories set the exact versions of the included packages so that constructor will produce a predictable result that can be tracked by git for each release. In turn, the specification directories are created/updated by re-rendering the radioconda environment specification file using the rerender.py script.

So, the procedure to create a new installer package is:

  1. Update the environment specification file radioconda.yaml, if desired.
  2. Re-render the constructor specification directories by running rerender.py.
  3. Commit the changes to produced by steps 1 and 2 to the git repository.
  4. Build the installer package for a particular platform by running build_installer.py.

Release

To release a new version of radioconda and build installer packages using GitHub's CI:

  1. Update the repository following steps 1-3 above.
  2. Make a new pre-release on GitHub with a name equal to the version.
  3. Wait until all artifacts are uploaded by CI
  4. Mark the pre-release as a release

NOTE: using a pre-release is important to make sure the "latest" links work.
