I was trying to use conda package manager to install my Python packages. Recently I encountered that many of the packages that I required were not present in the Anaconda.org repository, and I had to pip install them. Ref: github issues
Is there a way to add a channel to Anaconda that will enable it to look for All PyPi packages so that I can use "conda" completely instead of switching over to pip every now and then

If you want to build conda packages for PyPI packages, the recommended way is to use conda skeleton pypi package and use conda build package on the recipe that it creates. To install the package, use conda install --use-local package (here and elsewhere, package is the name of the PyPI package you wish to install).
To gain the benefits of conda integration, be sure to install pip inside the currently active conda environment and then install packages with that instance of pip. The command conda list shows packages installed this way, with a label showing that they were installed with pip.
Use pip installed with conda , e.g. ~/anaconda/bin/pip . Use it to install packages into a conda environment, as well as to see the union of packages installed with this pip and with conda install .
According to conda skeleton, you can first run
conda skeleton pypi package
It will generate conda recipe for that package if it is available on PyPi, then
conda build package
conda install --use-local package
It will install the package
Enjoy !
