oauthenticator.oauth2

Base classes for Custom Authenticator to use OAuth with JupyterHub

Most of the code c/o Kyle Kelley (@rgbkrk)

class oauthenticator.oauth2.OAuthLoginHandler(application: tornado.web.Application, request: tornado.httputil.HTTPServerRequest, **kwargs)

Base class for OAuth login handler

Typically subclasses will need

class oauthenticator.oauth2.OAuthCallbackHandler(application: tornado.web.Application, request: tornado.httputil.HTTPServerRequest, **kwargs)

Basic handler for OAuth callback. Calls authenticator to verify username.

class oauthenticator.oauth2.OAuthenticator(**kwargs)

Base class for OAuthenticators

Subclasses must override:

login_service (string identifying the service provider) authenticate (method takes one arg - the request handler handling the oauth callback)

admin_users c.OAuthenticator.admin_users = Set()

Set of users that will have admin rights on this JupyterHub.

Admin users have extra privileges:

• Use the admin panel to see list of users logged in

• Add / remove users in some authenticators

• Restart / halt the hub

• Start / stop users’ single-user servers

• Can access each individual users’ single-user server (if configured)

Admin access should be treated the same way root access is.

Defaults to an empty set, in which case no user has admin access.

auth_refresh_age c.OAuthenticator.auth_refresh_age = Int(300)

The max age (in seconds) of authentication info before forcing a refresh of user auth info.

Refreshing auth info allows, e.g. requesting/re-validating auth tokens.

See refresh_user() for what happens when user auth info is refreshed (nothing by default).

authorize_url c.OAuthenticator.authorize_url = Unicode('')

The authenticate url for initiating oauth

auto_login c.OAuthenticator.auto_login = Bool(False)

Automatically begin the login process

rather than starting with a “Login with…” link at /hub/login

To work, .login_url() must give a URL other than the default /hub/login, such as an oauth handler or another automatic login handler, registered with .get_handlers().

New in version 0.8.

blacklist c.OAuthenticator.blacklist = Set()

Blacklist of usernames that are not allowed to log in.

Use this with supported authenticators to restrict which users can not log in. This is an additional blacklist that further restricts users, beyond whatever restrictions the authenticator has in place.

If empty, does not perform any additional restriction.

enable_auth_state c.OAuthenticator.enable_auth_state = Bool(False)

Enable persisting auth_state (if available).

auth_state will be encrypted and stored in the Hub’s database. This can include things like authentication tokens, etc. to be passed to Spawners as environment variables.

Encrypting auth_state requires the cryptography package.

Additionally, the JUPYTERHUB_CRYPT_KEY environment variable must contain one (or more, separated by ;) 32B encryption keys. These can be either base64 or hex-encoded.

If encryption is unavailable, auth_state cannot be persisted.

New in JupyterHub 0.8

oauth_callback_url c.OAuthenticator.oauth_callback_url = Unicode('')

Callback URL to use. Typically https://{host}/hub/oauth_callback

post_auth_hook c.OAuthenticator.post_auth_hook = Any(None)

An optional hook function that you can implement to do some bootstrapping work during authentication. For example, loading user account details from an external system.

This function is called after the user has passed all authentication checks and is ready to successfully authenticate. This function must return the authentication dict reguardless of changes to it.

This maybe a coroutine.

Example:

import os, pwd
def my_hook(authenticator, handler, authentication):
    user_data = pwd.getpwnam(authentication['name'])
    spawn_data = {
        'pw_data': user_data
        'gid_list': os.getgrouplist(authentication['name'], user_data.pw_gid)
    }

    if authentication['auth_state'] is None:
        authentication['auth_state'] = {}
    authentication['auth_state']['spawn_data'] = spawn_data

    return authentication

c.Authenticator.post_auth_hook = my_hook

refresh_pre_spawn c.OAuthenticator.refresh_pre_spawn = Bool(False)

Force refresh of auth prior to spawn.

This forces refresh_user() to be called prior to launching a server, to ensure that auth state is up-to-date.

This can be important when e.g. auth tokens that may have expired are passed to the spawner via environment variables from auth_state.

If refresh_user cannot refresh the user auth data, launch will fail until the user logs in again.

scope c.OAuthenticator.scope = List()

The OAuth scopes to request. See the OAuth documentation of your OAuth provider for options. For GitHub in particular, you can see github_scopes.md in this repo.

token_url c.OAuthenticator.token_url = Unicode('')

The url retrieving an access token at the completion of oauth

userdata_url c.OAuthenticator.userdata_url = Unicode('')

The url for retrieving user data with a completed access token

username_map c.OAuthenticator.username_map = Dict()

Dictionary mapping authenticator usernames to JupyterHub users.

Primarily used to normalize OAuth user names to local users.

username_pattern c.OAuthenticator.username_pattern = Unicode('')

Regular expression pattern that all valid usernames must match.

If a username does not match the pattern specified here, authentication will not be attempted.

If not set, allow any username.

whitelist c.OAuthenticator.whitelist = Set()

Whitelist of usernames that are allowed to log in.

Use this with supported authenticators to restrict which users can log in. This is an additional whitelist that further restricts users, beyond whatever restrictions the authenticator has in place.

If empty, does not perform any additional restriction.
