conda_environment_kaggle_windows

Propagate a curated Python environment "kaggle" for KNIME with several important packages.
Like for example: h2o, arrow, XGBoost

# update the base conda environment
conda update -n base -c conda-forge conda

conda update -n kaggle --all

conda install -c h2oai h2o
conda install -c conda-forge xgboost
conda install -c conda-forge jupyterlab

# list packages in the enironment
conda list -n kaggle

# remove a single package
conda remove -n kaggle jupyterlab_execute_time

You will need a working Miniforge (or Anaconda) environment set up to be used in KNIME
