Generally, you can access Julia by either starting from a Julia-baed environment or adding it through conda. If you need, say, MATLAB and Julia, or Stata and Julia, you'll need to use the postInstall script:
Choose the appropriate release from https://julialang.org/downloads/ and copy it into your clipboard.
In your postInstall script, write something like:
#!/usr/bin/env bash
set -e
curl -L https://julialang-s3.julialang.org/bin/linux/x64/1.2/julia-1.2.0-linux-x86_64.tar.gz | tar xz
(This will download Julia 1.2.0.)
3. Add a line that adds Julia to the PATH to your run script . If you are downloading Julia 1.2, your run script will look like:
#!/usr/bin/env bash
set -ex
export PATH=$PATH:/julia-1.2.0/bin/
You can test that this worked by running julia --version .
