anaconda channel command group manages Anaconda repository channels. Channels can exist on anaconda.com (private repository channels) or anaconda.org (public channels).
This command replaces the deprecated
anaconda channel command (which was an alias for anaconda label). The legacy --list, --copy, --show, --lock, --unlock, and --remove flags still work for backward compatibility but operate on labels instead. Labels are tags applied to packages within a channel (such as “main” or “dev”) to organize releases, while channels are the repositories themselves.Use anaconda label for label management.anaconda channel create my-org/my-channel --privateto create a channel (in this case, a private one).anaconda channel upload packages/*.conda --channel my-org/my-channelto upload packages.
