Is there a possibility to install NEURON in a Windows/MacOS environment that doesn't have a GUI? Specifically Travis CI.

For MacOS the answer is: install from source code. In principle, that should also be doable under MSWin.

We have two active projects that may be of interest to you:

(1) pip installable wheels at https://github.com/neuronsimulator/nrn/ ... tuppy/dist
  • Important: this is a work in progress. At this writing, neither nrnivmodl nor the GUI work. If you don't need those though, you should be good. (The nrnivmodl issue is due to hardcoded paths, so one could make a short script to patch the files so this works on TravisCI.)
  • for usage, see e.g. https://colab.research.google.com/drive ... xMode=true
(2) Streamlining the Windows compilation process in the cmake branch.
