use existing julia install

[adienes]

I am trying to install Julia + some packages in a a docker image, and run it in python with juliacall

there seems to be quite a lot of magic going on with automatically creating new environments, downloading packages, etc. etc.

I don't want any of that. is there a way to ask juliacall to "just please use this julia environment" and go ahead and fail if there are any version incompatibilities etc. ?

Yep, check out the docs for juliapkg, which handles all that installation: https://github.com/JuliaPy/pyjuliapkg
