Conda-build Documentation¶
Building a conda package requires
installing conda build and
creating a conda recipe. Use the conda build
command to build the conda package from the conda recipe.
You can build conda packages from a variety of source code projects, most notably Python. For help packing a Python project, see the Setuptools documentation.
OPTIONAL: If you are planning to upload your packages to Anaconda Cloud, you will need an Anaconda Cloud account and client.
