Create an conda/mamba environment from a pixi.lock file?

[raybellwaves]

I work in a shared jupyterhub and most of my experiment takes place in a notebook and connecting to different kernels (e.g.mamba env create -f env.yml) which contains deps and ipykernel.

I'm wondering how best to use pixi on the shared jhub when I want to find my kernel for each project.

I'm curious if you can create an conda/mamba environment from a pixi.lock file is or if there is a better way to achieve the same outcome.

Cheers,
Ray

If you can tweak things at a hub level, there is pixi-kernel, otherwise you can use pixi project export to get an environment.yml, or explicit spec.

Thanks. I'll take a look at https://github.com/renan-r-santos/pixi-kernel. We're deploying tljh (https://tljh.jupyter.org/en/latest/) so I expect we can add it.

I'll also check out pixi project export in the mean time
