Rodeo IDE installed from Github Releases: Says can't find python

[pruthvireddy]

Hi,

I used rodeo a lot 2-3 years back and I am back to using it only to realize that the program has been abandoned. I managed to install an older version I suppose through the releases and installed it, now when I run it I get an error that it cannot find anaconda or Jupyter notebooks installed, whereas I do have them installed.

I tried changing the directory it prompts to point to the anaconda installation, but no help there too!

Please help me get this issue resolved. I'd like to use Rodeo even though I know there won't be any updates. I love the freedom to run block codes or lines and having the construction of, editor, terminal, environment, and plots.

If any alternative IDE is there please suggest it! Thanks

I am on 2.5.2 and miniforge3-conda 4.11.0 (Mac M1, python 3.9).

Assume we target to trigger conda env pyts,

conda activate pyts
pip install jupyter

3. Rodeo -> Preferences -> Python -> ignore the warnings several times (i.e. skip the warning message box) -> set Python Command to ${HOME}/miniforge3/envs/pyts/bin/python3.9

4. Save changes and quit

5. Reopen Rodeo -> Preferences -> Change Python Package Installer from pip to conda.

If it fails, you may want to set the Environment Variables properly.

You may want to change ${HOME}/miniforge3/ your conda setting.
