Alex Goodman commented on CLIMATE-866:
--------------------------------------
I like option 2. I know we were originally planning on hosting the recipe files
on some sort of apache repo in the future (CLIMATE-836), but in hindsight this
is probably the best approach. I actually knew of the conda-forge but initially
thought the hassle of needing to make a github PR in order to update the
packages might be too much of a hinderance when attempting to prepare for new
releases. However I really like that the build process itself is automated
through CI services which would ultimately make maintaining the packages much
easier since the only thing we actually need to maintain is the meta.yaml file
for ocw (and any other dependencies not already on the conda-forge). I believe
the build is automatically done for both python2 and 3 as well. The initial PRs
to upload our recipes will probably take some time but it seems in practice
they are very fast about merging PRs for simple updates.
Let me know if you agree, and if so I'd be glad to set this all in motion. I
was originally going to make the python3 packages today for my anaconda channel
but if this is not urgent, we can automatically defer this until after our
recipes are pushed to conda-forge. Let me know your thoughts [~lewismc].

> Hi [~agoodman], I recently tried to use the conda package to install OCW. I
> am using Miniconda3 and therefore Python3. When I run the conda install, I
> get the following
> {code}
> lmcgibbn@LMC-032857 /usr/local/climate(master) $ conda install -c agoodman ocw
> Fetching package metadata .........
> Solving package specifications: ....
> The following specifications were found to be in conflict:
> - ocw
> - python 3.5*
> Use "conda info <package>" to see the dependencies for each package.
> {code}
> This is because the packages are built using Python 2.7 as per
> https://anaconda.org/agoodman/ocw/files.
> Seeing as all of our CI and smoke testing now runs off of Python 3.X, I
> wonder if you are able to push an update to the conda files which compile
> against Python3?
