3.3. Updating ModelFlow

ModelFlow gets new features and fixes these will be reflected in the ModelFlow_stable package. In order to use new features compared to the version on which this book is created the user might create a new environment to use this. This would have the advantage of preserving the current ModelFlow environment for recreating the book examples.

The command below creates a new environment -n ModelFlow_new and installs the most recent version of ModelFlow from the modelflow_stable repository. As noted above, this might introduce changes that break some of the examples in this book – although every effort will be made to maintain backward compatibility.

conda deactivate
conda create -n ModelFlow_new -c ibh -c conda-forge modelflow_stable -y
conda activate ModelFlow_new

And perform the additional commands specified in the previous section.
