2. InstallationΒΆ

The easiest way to install miRNAture is through conda. To do so, please first install Conda 1.

To speed up installation of dependencies and packages we suggest to use mamba 2, for this just run:

conda install mamba -c conda-forge

You can use mamba as drop-in replacement for conda by simply replacing the call to conda with a call to mamba.

Install via Conda

To install miRNAture from conda in a specific mirnature environment simply run:

mamba create -n mirnature mirnature

if mamba is available, else run:

conda create -n mirnature mirnature

Manual install, resolve dependencies via Conda

Create a mirnature conda environment with the file miRNAture.yml:

mamba env create -n mirnature -f miRNAture.yml

Activate the environment containing all dependencies:

conda activate mirnature

followed by the manual steps:

perl Build.PL
./Build
./Build test
./Build install

which will install miRNAture in the mirnature conda environment.
