| parejkoj | Linked from the “Try the development version” page. | 17:50:44 |
 pllim | Oh... definitely needs updating. Thx. | 17:51:49 |
 James Davies | conda create -n astropy python -y
conda activate astropy
pip install -e .[test]
pytest | 17:52:16 |
| James Davies | The above makes a minimal conda environment with just python installed, does an editable install of development astropy, and runs the tests. | 17:53:29 |
| James Davies | You can also replace the last 2 lines with
pip install tox
tox -e test | 17:54:47 |
| pllim | Opened https://github.com/astropy/astropy/issues/13724 | 17:55:21 |
| James Davies | This has the updated information, I think…
https://docs.astropy.org/en/latest/development/testguide.html#tox | 17:55:58 |
| parejkoj | This sequence of commands seems to have gotten me a working environment that will run pytest in my astropy git clone:
mamba create -n astropy-dev python
conda activate astropy-dev
pip install -e .[test] | 18:21:13 |
| parejkoj | There’s a bunch of intertwined information on the three pages (I added links on the Issue you created): someone who understands that better should probably update, but I’m happy to proofread or be a guineapig for stepping through the updated process. | 18:23:41 |

| Yukta Sharma | I am having trouble using gala astroquery.
First I tried it on notebook in VS code and getting error: could not build wheels for gala, which is required to install pyproject.toml-based projects
Then I shifted to replit for 'from gala.units import galactic '
I am getting error that I must specify a unit of physical type ' length ' | 11:37:35 |
 Derek Homeier | Looks like one of your packages is installed in a too old version for up-to-date units support. Possibly gala, but that’s hard to tell since the path names of the relevant packages are cut off in your screenshot. Could you post a full view, or better, just copy and paste the error message as a code block (probably Ctrl-Alt-Shift-C)? | 14:27:16 |

| pllim | adrn can probably help with Gala stuff. | 14:28:43 |
 adrn | Hi Yukta Sharma -- I'll DM you to see if we can debug this! | 14:29:46 |
