Hi Nick, I'd build yt from the git repository. See the instructions here: http://yt-project.org/doc/installing.html#installing-yt-from-source In particular, follow the instructions at the bottom of that section that tell you to build yt with "pip install -e .", which will make the git repository the "active" installed version of yt. I don't think there's a way to edit an installed copy of yt from anaconda and then recompile it like you seem to be looking for. -Nathan On Mon, Aug 27, 2018 at 3:42 PM Nick Gnedin <gnedin@fnal.gov> wrote:

Folks,

I need to make a small change in the ARTIO backend - I added an option to compress grid data, and that required a small change in the meaning of some disk variables. In order to test these changes, I made them inside yt/frontends/artio/artio_headers on my local anaconda install, but I do not know how to compile them into yt - sorry for a such a dummy question. Any advice?
