Installation of suite2p on Windows

Install an Anaconda distribution of Python – Choose Python 3.x and your operating system.

1. Download the environment.yml file from the suite2p repository (https://github.com/MouseLand/suite2p). You can do this by cloning the repository, or copy-pasting the text from the file into a text document on your local computer.
2. Open an anaconda prompt
3. If you have an older suite2p environment you can remove it with conda env remove -n suite2p before creating a new one.

4. Replace {PATH_TO_THE_FILE} with path of environment.yml and run conda env create -f {PATH_TO_THE_FILE}\environment.yml. In this case, {PATH_TO_THE_FILE} is D:\NAPE_2pBenchmark

5. To activate this new environment, run conda activate suite2p

6. You should see (suite2p) on the left side of the terminal line. Now run python -m suite2p and you’re all set.
