Installation

Prerequisites

Floability requires Conda 24.0 or later. We recommend Miniforge — it uses conda-forge by default and gives the best compatibility with Floability's dependencies. Miniconda also works.

Check your current version:

conda --version

Install from conda-forge

conda create -n floability-env -c conda-forge floability
conda activate floability-env

Note: Floability is under active development. The conda-forge release may lag behind recent fixes. If you run into issues with the conda install, switch to the source install.

Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/floability/floability-cli.git
cd floability-cli

Create and activate the environment:

conda env create -f environment.yml
conda activate floability-env

Install Floability:

pip install .

Verify

floability --version

If this command is not found, make sure the floability-env environment is active (conda activate floability-env) and that the install step completed without errors.
