Installing Python Packages Locally with Pip
Python packages, such as Numpy, pandas, or matplotlib, must be installed on a user by user basis. This process assumes that you have loaded a Python module with the command module load python/[version]. As python is included in anaconda, using an anaconda module will work too.
You can install python packages with the command:
pip install --user [package_name]
Please note that you MUST use the –user flag, otherwise you will get a permissions error since it will try to install the python package across the cluster instead of for just your user account.
