Client sites

Client sites are a mechanism to allow users to quickly switch between Repository instances. This can be used with the on-site Anaconda Enterprise.

  • Invoke the anaconda command with the -s/--site option like this:

    anaconda -s site_name whoami
    
  • Set a site as the default:

    anaconda config --set default_site site_name
    anaconda whoami
    
Add a Client site

After installing Anaconda Enterprise, you can add a site named “site_name” as follows:

anaconda config --set sites.site_name.url
"http://<anaconda-enterprise-ip>:<port>/api"
anaconda config --set default_site site_name
Site options vs. global options

All options can be set as global options that affect all sites or site options that affect only one site.

By default, options are set globally:

anaconda config --set OPTION VALUE

If you want the option to be limited to a single site, prefix the option with sites.site_name:

anaconda config --set sites.site_name.OPTION VALUE
Common Client configuration options
  • Url—Set the Anaconda API URL. Default is https://api.anaconda.org.
  • Verify_ssl—Perform SSL validation on the https requests. Verify_ssl may be True, False or a path to a root CA pem file.

Toggle auto_register when doing anaconda upload

The default is yes, automatically creating a new package when uploading. If no, then an upload fails if the package name does not already exist on the server:

anaconda config --set auto_register yes|no
