For example, if you wanted the 'ads' package, it's available in the conda-forge channel. There are more conda package repositories (called channels) than the ones we have configured for you by default. What if the package I want isn't available through conda?įirst of all, it may be. This example shows all packages that have 'ldap' in the name. You can also use wildcards in the package name if you aren't sure what it is called. You could also specify a particular version of the ldap3 package though that isn't usually what people want. Note: the '*' in the example command is a wildcard for the ldap3 package version. Here is an example searching for the ldap3 package but only if it works with Python 3.7. You can tell conda to return only packages which will work with a particular Python version.

A python environment is a version of Python and some associated Python packages. Conda is an open source system for managing Python environments.
