Start terminal with previous conda environment

Is there a way to start up the terminal with the previously run conda environment instead of having to activate it on every startup? Setting up a default environment doesn’t really help since if the environment you set as your default environment isn’t the one you had for your previous session, you still have to activate it.

dear albasfaisal

nice to meet you.

It’s easy.

for example,

Create the Conda environment with the conda create command. The following command creates a Python 3.6 environment with the name py36.

(base) $ conda create --name py36 python = 3.6

Activate the created environment with the conda activate environment name.

(base) $ conda activate py36
(py36) $

When you switch the Conda environment, the prompt display also switches from (base) to (py36).

Regards, you.

I am not sure whether there is any way to do it natively, but you could always place a conda activate line in your .bashrc or similar file, depending on your OS/shell preferences.

The Tutorial is fine and won’t hurt.
