1. Create a conda virtual environment from the `environment.yml` file.
```shell
cd config
conda env create --file environment.yml
conda activate straw2analysis
```
If you have already created this environment, you can update it using:
```shell
conda deactivate
conda env update --file environment.yml
conda activate straw2analysis
```
2. Follow [the instructions](https://docs.conda.io/projects/conda/en/latest/user-guide/tasks/manage-environments.html#saving-environment-variables) to set DB_PASSWORD as the environment variable.
In short, use:
```shell
cd $CONDA_PREFIX
mkdir -p ./etc/conda/activate.d
mkdir -p ./etc/conda/deactivate.d
touch ./etc/conda/activate.d/env_vars.sh
touch ./etc/conda/deactivate.d/env_vars.sh
```
and then edit `./etc/conda/activate.d/env_vars.sh` as follows:
```bash
#!/bin/sh
export DB_PASSWORD='database-password'
```
and `./etc/conda/deactivate.d/env_vars.sh` as follows:
