conda-tree

conda dependency tree helper

Install

conda install -c conda-forge conda-tree

If you're using python 3.9 you might have to run:

conda install -c conda-forge conda-tree 'networkx>=2.5'

to make sure the right networkx version is installed.

Conda sub-command

When conda-tree is installed on the base environment, you can use the "tree" sub-command from any env:

# normal usage
(base) $ conda tree leaves
package-1
package-2

# activate another env
(base) $ conda activate env2

# no need to install conda-tree on env2
(env2) $ conda tree leaves
package-x
package-y

Features

Query the dependency tree

# packages that no other package depends on
$ conda-tree leaves
samtools
bcftools
etc

# dependencies of a specific package
$ conda-tree depends samtools
curl
xz
libgcc
zlib

# which packages depend on a specific package
$ conda-tree whoneeds xz
samtools
bcftools
htslib
python

# dependency cycles
$ conda-tree cycles
pip -> python -> pip
pip -> wheel -> python -> pip

Dependencies in tree form

# dependencies in a tree form
# (redundancies are hidden by default)
$ conda-tree depends -t sqlite

Query another env

# query by path
$ conda-tree -p /conda/envs/trinity leaves
trinity

# query by name
$ conda-tree -n trinity leaves
trinity

Query package files

# find which package owns a file
$ conda-tree -n graphviz who-owns bin/dot
graphviz bin/dot
graphviz bin/dot2gxl
graphviz bin/dot_builtins

# find dangling files that aren't owned by any package
$ conda-tree -n base unowned-files
/conda/LICENSE.txt

$ conda-tree -n graphviz unowned-files
/conda/envs/graphviz/var/cache/fontconfig/b67b32625a2bb51b023d3814a918f351-le64.cache-7

Generate a minimal set of packages to re-create the env

# can be used to re-create a env with conda create -n <new-env> --file <dep-file>
$ conda-tree -n graphviz leaves --export
conda-forge::graphviz=2.48.0=h85b4f2f_0

Generate a graph of the dependency tree

# export a graphviz dot notation file of the dependencies tree
$ conda-tree deptree --dot > file.dot
$ conda-tree depends <package> --dot > file.dot
$ conda-tree whoneeds <package> --dot > file.dot

# then render to pdf with graphviz's dot tool
$ dot -Tpdf file.dot -o tree.pdf
