Installation method. By default, "auto" automatically finds a method that will work in the local environment. Change the default to force a specific installation method. Note that the "virtualenv" method is not available on Windows. Note also that since this command runs without privilege the "system" method is available only on Windows.

conda

envname

Name of Python environment to install within, by default environment name RAthena.

conda_python_version

the python version installed in the created conda environment. Python 3.7 is installed by default.
