7. Finally, setup the environment variables:
- #Execute the ISIS variable initialization script with default arguments.
- #This script prepares default values for: $ISISROOT, $ISISDATA, $ISISTESTDATA
+ To use the default values for: `$ISISROOT, $ISISDATA, $ISISTESTDATA`, run the ISIS variable initialization script with default arguments.
- python $CONDA_PREFIX/scripts/isisVarInit.py
+ To do this, for versions of ISIS 4.2.0 and earlier, use:
+
+ python $CONDA_PREFIX/scripts/isis3VarInit.py
+ For versions of ISIS after 4.2.0, use:
+
+ python $CONDA_PREFIX/scripts/isisVarInit.py
Executing this script with no arguments will result in $ISISDATA=$CONDA\_PREFIX/data, and $ISISTESTDATA=$CONDA\_PREFIX/testdata. The user can specify different directories for both of these optional values:
- python $CONDA_PREFIX/scripts/isisVarInit.py --data-dir=[path to data directory] --test-dir=[path to test data directory]
+ For ISIS 4.2.0 and earlier, use:
+
+ python $CONDA_PREFIX/scripts/isis3VarInit.py --data-dir=[path to data directory] --test-dir=[path to test data directory]
+ For versions of ISIS after 4.2.0, use:
+
+ python $CONDA_PREFIX/scripts/isisVarInit.py --data-dir=[path to data directory] --test-dir=[path to test data directory]
More information about the ISISDATA environment variable and the ISIS Data Area can be found [here]("#The-ISIS-Data-Area"). Now everytime the isis environment is activated, $ISISROOT, $ISISDATA, and $ISISTESTDATA will be set to the values passed to isisVarInit.py. This does not happen retroactively, so re-activate the isis envionment with one of the following commands:
