Use Conda to Generate Requirements.txt for Docker Containers

pip is a standard package manager. Requirements.txt can be generated in one environment and installed by pip in a new environment. Conda replicates own installation. Pip produces a list of packages that were installed on top of standard library to make the package you wrote work.

Following are the steps to generate requirements.txt file to be used insdie Dockerfile for docker containers:



Go to your project environment conda activate

conda list gives you list of packages used for the environment

conda list -e > requirements.txt save all the info about packages to your folder

conda env export > .yml

pip freeze

Hope that helps.
