I'm attending a course which advises us to use anaconda. Because of this, there is no requirements.txt, but rather only packages included in anaconda are required.
Since I already have a python environment set up, I dont want to install another python. Is there a requirements.txt that installs all packages from anaconda?
Check https://docs.anaconda.com/anaconda/packages/pkg-docs when you select the desired python version and target OS and architecture you will see all available packages and there is a column with the packages that are included by default in the anaconda installer.
For example python 2.7 win 64bits
You could make a python script to check for <i class="fa fa-check"></i> and make a txt of the default packages.
EDIT: Adding another way I suggested in comments below.
Alternative method: Using online regex web services
Step 1: copy the html table removing for simpler regex the unnecesary tags and keeping the tr td tags like so
<tr>
<td><a href="https://github.com/ContinuumIO/anaconda-nb-extensions-meta-config">_nb_ext_conf</a></td>
<td>0.4.0</td>
<td>A configuration metapackage for enabling Anaconda-bundled jupyter extensions / BSD</td>
<td></td>
</tr>
Step 2: Paste it into a regex web like regexr and craft your regex, I managed to come up real quick with this one: <td><a.+">(.+)<\/a><\/td>\s+<td>.+<\/td>\s+<td>.+<\/td>\s+<td><i.+check.+<\/td> im pretty sure it can be improved but works.
Step 3: get your list by specifying how you want to output your capture group: $1 \n $1 is your capture group and \n is newline, so you would get a list of packages like so:
alabaster
anaconda-client
anaconda-navigator
anaconda-project
asn1crypto
astroid
astropy
babel
