conda create doesn't seem to work anymore

[saschalalala]

I just found the PyData talk from 2016 on youtube (https://youtu.be/7fsreJMy_pI) and wanted to follow the tutorial and setup my environment according to your readme.

When doing that, conda says SpecNotFound: /private/tmp/connected-nx-tutorial/environment.yml is not a valid yaml file.

What worked for me right now is extracting the pip packages and install them via pipenv into my venv (without conda) doing:

pipenv install mkl numpy scipy setuptools appnope cycler decorator entrypoints funcsigs ipykernel ipython ipython-genutils ipywidgets jinja2 jsonschema jupyter jupyter-client jupyter-console jupyter-core markupsafe matplotlib mistune mock nbconvert nbformat networkx nose notebook pandas pbr pexpect pickleshare prompt-toolkit ptyprocess pygments pyparsing python-dateutil pytz pyzmq qtconsole seaborn simplegeneric six terminado tornado traitlets watermark wcwidth

The resulting Pipfile looks like this:

[[source]]
name = "pypi"
url = "https://pypi.org/simple"
verify_ssl = true

[dev-packages]

I'm not that firm with conda itself but it seems like the environment.yml should somehow be updated so that new users can easily create their environment.
