Difficulties Installing Miepy on Midway2

[tjpleasant]

Hi John,

I've been having trouble with installing on midway2.

Both with conda

and pip

Any suggestions?

Thank you,
Tyler

PS:
I saw you recommended this, by the way, but it fails even the first of those commands.
conda install -c conda-forge quaternion
conda install -c moble spherical_functions
pip install miepy

Don't bother with the conda install of MiePy, just use the pip method. There shouldn't be any problem in a fresh conda environment. You can always make a new one, for example:

conda create --prefix=/scratch/midway2/$USER/my_env python=3.8
source activate /scratch/midway2/$USER/my_env

spherical_functions is available through the conda-forge channel, don't use moble channel:

conda install -c conda-forge quaternion
conda install -c conda-forge spherical_functions
pip install miepy

P.S. you might want to migrate to Midway3
