Trouble Installing Minian

[carlosmckinneyjr]

I am having some trouble installing Minian on my computer. I have Conda installed, and I am using the commands from the GitHub site, but it says that I do not have the correct channel. I am attaching a screenshot to this you can see the issue.

I don't work on minian and have very little experience with it, but was passing by as I was considering making a post. First, I don't know why you're getting that error, it could be related to the newer M1/M2 macs, but you might try a local download as such:

`git clone https://github.com/DeniseCaiLab/minian.git
cd minian
conda env create -n minian -f environment.yml`

Rather than running that last line, you might consider using mamba (installed into your base environment). I found this to clear up some issues:

`conda install -n base -c conda-forge mamba`

Then creating your minian environment

`mamba env create -n minian -f environment.yml`

Using mamba allowed me to work through the pipeline notebook with little issues, which you'll find in the 'minian' folder installed on your machine somewhere.
