如何在不“安装”它们的情况下下载Anaconda软件包？

Question

See title. I'd like to download a compressed package from the Anaconda repository for later installation. How would I use the conda tool to do that?

Answer 1

Use the --download-only flag.

$ conda install --help
usage: conda install [-h] [--revision REVISION] [-y] [--dry-run] [-f]
                     [--file FILE] [--no-deps] [--only-deps] [-m] [-C]

...

  --download-only       Solve an environment and ensure package caches are
                        populated, but exit prior to unlinking and linking
                        packages into the prefix.
