Package installation of Keras in Anaconda?

问题:

Python 3.5, I am trying to find command to install a kersa Deep Learning package for Anaconda. Why does this 'conda install -c keras' not work?

回答1:

You can use this command to install keras

conda install -c conda-forge keras

this is according to the documentation https://anaconda.org/conda-forge/keras

The specific answer to the question is that the -c option to the conda command specifies a channel to search for the package or packages you want to install.

-c CHANNEL, --channel CHANNEL

Additional channel to search for packages. These are URLs searched in the order they are given (including file:// for local directories). Then, the defaults or channels from .condarc are searched (unless --override-channels is given). You can use 'defaults' to get the default packages for conda, and 'system' to get the system packages, which also takes .condarc into account. You can also use any name and the .condarc channel_alias value will be prepended. The default channel_alias is http://conda.anaconda.org/.

Your command conda install -c keras specifies a channel called keras (on the default channel_alias url) but doesn't then specify any packages to install, so that's why you get the Value error: too few arguments error.

As Madhu Babu's answer notes, keras is available on the conda-forge channel so the correct command is

conda install -c conda-forge keras

I'm relatively new to Keras as well as Ubuntu and environments. However I think I've found a way. Create the conda env just like you would while installing Tensorflow (or even Theano).

Enter the env using source activate

Then use git clone https://github.com/fchollet/keras.git

Then enter keras folder and do python setup.py install (without the sudo) - If any permissions error use chmod 777 recursively

Navigate to Anaconda installation folder/Scripts and install with pip command
