Simple authenticator for JupyterHub
that gives anyone who visits the home page a user account without having to
log in using any UI at all. It also spawns a single-user server and directs
the user to it immediately, without them having to press a button.
Built primarily to help run tmpnb with JupyterHub.
Installation
pip install jupyterhub-tmpauthenticator
Should install it. It has no additional dependencies beyond JupyterHub.
You can then use this as your authenticator by adding the following line to
your jupyterhub_config.py:
c.JupyterHub.authenticator_class="tmp"
Configuration
tmpauthenticator does not have a lot of configurable knobs, but will respect
many relevant config options in the base JupyterHub Authenticator class.
Here are a few that are particularly useful.
TmpAuthenticator.auto_login
By default, tmpauthenticator will automatically log the user in as soon
as they hit the landing page of the JupyterHub, without showing them any UI.
This behavior can be turned off by setting TmpAuthenticator.auto_login to
False, allowing a home page to be shown. There will be a Sign in button here
that will automatically authenticate the user.
c.TmpAuthenticator.auto_login=False
TmpAuthenticator.login_service
If auto_login is set to False, the value of TmpAuthenticator.login_service
will determine the text shown next to Sign in in the default home page. It
defaults to Automatic Temporary Credentials, so the button will read as Sign in with Automatic Temporary Credentials`.
c.TmpAuthenticator.auto_login=Falsec.TmpAuthenticator.login_service="your inherent worth as a human being"
