We do not want users to hand-edit YAML files. This has been a
major source of bugs and confusion for users in z2jh. Doing so
in a terminal text editor makes it even worse.
This lets users type commands directly to modify config.yaml file
rather than edit files directly. This makes it a lot less error
prone and user friendly.
Advanced users can still edit config.yaml manually.
Fixes#38
We can no longer assume that sys.executable has conda
installed. Instead, we require that prefix has conda installed.
This requires miniconda to be installed into prefix.
- TLJH should support raspberry pi, which runs ARM. conda does
not support ARM.
- Get nodejs from nodesource instead of conda or default repositories.
Default repositories get out of date pretty quickly.
- Install CHP from npm
No two ways to set authenticator options - just one way.
It's slightly 'ugly' because of the mixing of camel case &
snake case, but is worth the massive reductions in complexity!
- Removes all need for special casing authenticators.
- Install them in hub environment, directly start using them.
- Consider if we should special case any *at all*
We don't wanna explicitly map keys from the YAML to traitlet
config for the authentication - that's a lot of busywork for no
gain. We instead switch to using snake_case everywhere, and
dynamically set traitlet config from YAML config!
- Helps protect against users named 'root'
- Makes it clearer that you should not rely on these users
for general PAM work, because they are prefixed.
Fixes#9
With firstuseauthenticator, users need to be manually created
in the admin console before they can log in. This makes for a
far more secure default experience.
- This was going to get too complex for bash. Only way to
kill those scripts is before they get too complex.
- Better progress messages from bootstrapper.
- Differentiate between bootstrapper & installer
- Cleanup documentation a little bit
jupyterhub admins should be able to run `sudo -E pip install numpy`
and install numpy into the user environment. However, since pip
is in the PATH we explicitly set in jupyterhub_config.py and
sudo doesn't preserve PATH, this won't work.
We exempt jupyterhub-admins groups from the PATH restriction,
so sudo -E works. This has some security costs, but we are already
allowing passwordless roots for them with unrestricted paths...
