Generating environment.yml

[akhmerov]

Is there a way to use pixi to generate environment.yml? This may be useful for example if I need interoperability with tools that don't (yet) support pixi configuration. I see there's pixi list --json, but that doesn't quite cut it.

Thanks! This isn't exactly the same as my question though: I am more wondering about generating the yaml that conda/mamba and other tools will understand.

In the issue there is a conversation going on about pixi export with mutliple formats. I assume pavel was talking about that.

There is not such a feature yet.

Great work on this is done in #1427 by @abkfenris
