Unable to install googlefinance with conda

I just discovered the Anaconda project and think it's AMAZING! I just ran into an issue installing googlefinance, however:

Unable to find with a search:

(env)me@vm$ conda search googlefinance
Fetching package metadata: ....

Found with pip:

pip install googlefinance

Can I get it from this hargup user? https://anaconda.org/hargup/googlefinance/files

I'm just really trying to not mix pip and conda in this environment.

Solution

  • Provide the channel to conda and it should work:

    conda install -c https://conda.anaconda.org/hargup/channel/pypi googlefinance

    Even if there would be be no conda package, mixing conda and pip installations is fine. conda "knows" about the pip-installed packages.
