1.1 Installation using Conda

Atlas exists as a bionconda package: https://bioconda.github.io/recipes/atlas/README.html

1.1.1 Channel setup

Make sure that you have the following channels activated: conda-forge, bioconda and defaults (order matters) :

conda config --show channels

You should get the following output:

 channels:
  - conda-forge
  - bioconda
  - defaults

If some channels are missing, use:

conda config --add channels bioconda
conda config --add channels conda-forge
conda config --set channel_priority strict

If the order is wrong, use:

conda config --prepend channels bioconda
conda config --prepend channels conda-forge

1.1.2 Install Atlas

You can install atlas either in an existing environment using:

conda install atlas

Or by first creating a new environment called atlas2 (or any other name):

conda create --name atlas2
conda activate atlas2
conda install atlas

1.1.3 Update

ATLAS is under active construction. However, conda does not automatically update to the latest ATLAS-Version, so make sure you have the latest atlas-version (2.0.4):

conda update atlas
