"conda init zsh" didn't take effect

[HwangDozz]

My build.envd file is as follows. I use the zsh under the root privilege by default. May I ask why the conda init zsh command didn't take effect? There is no conda init code block in my /root/.zshrc file.

I suppose you want to have a development environment instead of an online service image. So you can use dev=True:

def build():
    base(image="your_cuda_image", dev=True)
    shell("zsh")
    install.conda()
    install.python()

This comes with most of the things you mentioned in your config. Well, except for those zsh plugins. If you would like to give it a try, I suggest to use shell("fish") so you have everything out-of-box.

I want to create an image that includes a specific Python version and CUDA version. Then, I will download some Python packages specified by the user and provide an online Jupyter service, which makes it convenient for the user to debug the environment within the image. Since the user may need to download some apt packages, I set dev=false and provided root privileges. I will give fish a try. Thank you for your suggestion!

I think that's okay to use envd as the user in the image since it also has the "sudo" permission (just run those cmds with sudo). So they can install the packages they need.

btw, is there any way to view more detailed logs, such as the detailed output of commands, during the execution of envd build?

envd --debug build
