Hello guys,

I would like to install ENSO Metrix on Gadi:  
Following by this link: [Install using conda forge (recommended) · CLIVAR-PRP/ENSO\_metrics Wiki · GitHub](https://github.com/CLIVAR-PRP/ENSO_metrics/wiki/Install-using-conda-forge-(recommended))  
My question is how can I create the conda environment??

- `conda create -n [YOUR_CONDA_ENVIRONMENT] -c conda-forge enso_metrics`

Should I do something like conda --user??

Regards,

Arnold

Arnold, this CMS wiki page should have the information you need: [Conda - climate-cms wikis.unsw.edu.au](http://climate-cms.wikis.unsw.edu.au/Conda#Creating_personal_environments)

Let us know if something does not work. You need to load the conda module under `/g/data/hh5/public/modules/` first.

Hi @ars599. Our usual advice for creating your own conda environment is “don’t”. This seems like a good candidate for installation into the `analysis3-unstable` conda environment in hh5, there is a python3.10 version available and the dependencies look to be mostly satisfied already. Please let us know if you’d like us to proceed with adding this to `analysis3-unstable`.

@clairecarouge @dale.roberts  
Many thanks for the help. The package is running without issue.  
Sooner we can announce that the CLIVAR ENSO Metrix package could run on Gadi. After the testing, I will pass this to MED and ESM to have further discussion as @dale.roberts mentioned.

Hi @ars599 , @clairecarouge , @dale.roberts . I am also looking to use this package - did this eventually make it into the analysis3 environment?

Cheers,  
Fraser
