How to activate a conda environment globally for any tab of the terminal?


It means whenever I open a new tab of terminal, no need to reactivate my environment again. Is there any command to do that?


Solution

  • You can update your shell config to activate your env automatically. In bash for example you can do that via ~/.bashrc. Conda even asks as the very last step of the installation if a user wants this feature enabled.

    Another approach is to use a terminal multiplexer such as GNU/Screen or tmux, one can activate conda, start tmux and have multiple tmux windows and all the other cool features.
