bioconda-utils is a set of utilities for building and managing bioconda recipes.

Since bioconda-utils is tightly coupled to bioconda-recipes, it is strongly recommended that bioconda-utils be set up and used according to the instructions at https://bioconda.github.io/contribute-a-recipe.html. This will ensure that your local setup matches that used to build recipes on travis-ci as closely as possible.

However, if you would like to test in a standalone manner or help develop bioconda-utils, you can install requirements via conda into your root conda environment and then install the package:

conda install --file bioconda_utils/bioconda_utils-requirements.txt -c bioconda -c conda-forge
python setup.py install

See the help for the bioconda-utils command-line interface for details:
