Install the Miniconda environment on Remote Server

Anaconda installation doesn’t need to ask for the admin permission. So it’s a good choice used on server. I would show how to install on the server in the following.

Download the Miniconda package

# use `curl` to download the package from miniconda. In own computer of MacOS.
curl -O "https://repo.anaconda.com/miniconda/Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh"

# use `wget` to download the package, in the server
wget https://repo.anaconda.com/miniconda/Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh -O miniconda_package

Install on the Server

# give the execute permission of the file
chmod +x /path/to/yourscript.sh

# run. `./` is important, since it points to the current path
./yourscript.sh

Activate the Environment

source Miniconda/bin/activate 

# deactivate the environment, just type in the terminal
deactivate

Then you have the environment for your project, you can just use pip install xx to install the modules you need.
