launcher

Module: binderhub.launcher

Launch an image with a temporary user via JupyterHub

Launcher

class binderhub.launcher.Launcher(**kwargs)

Object for encapsulating launching an image for a user

config c.Launcher.allow_named_servers = Bool(False)

Named user servers are allowed. This is used only when authentication is enabled and to set unique names for user servers.

config c.Launcher.allow_named_servers = Bool(False)

Named user servers are allowed. This is used only when authentication is enabled and to set unique names for user servers.

async api_request(url, *args, **kwargs)

Make an API request to JupyterHub

async launch(image, username, server_name='', repo_url='', extra_args=None)

Launch a server for a given image

  • creates a temporary user on the Hub if authentication is not enabled

  • spawns a server for temporary/authenticated user

  • generates a token

  • returns a dict containing: - url: the URL of the server - image: image spec - repo_url: the url of the repo - extra_args: Dictionary of extra arguments passed to the server - token: the token for the server

config c.Launcher.named_server_limit_per_user = Int(0)

Maximum number of concurrent named servers that can be created by a user.

config c.Launcher.named_server_limit_per_user = Int(0)

Maximum number of concurrent named servers that can be created by a user.

config c.Launcher.pre_launch_hook = Callable(None)

An optional hook function that you can use to implement checks before starting a user’s server. For example if you have a non-standard BinderHub deployment, in this hook you can check if the current user has right to launch a new repo.

Receives 5 parameters: launcher, image, username, server_name, repo_url

config c.Launcher.retries = Int(4)

Number of attempts to make on Hub API requests.

Adds resiliency to intermittent Hub failures, most commonly due to Hub, proxy, or ingress interruptions.

config c.Launcher.retries = Int(4)

Number of attempts to make on Hub API requests.

Adds resiliency to intermittent Hub failures, most commonly due to Hub, proxy, or ingress interruptions.

config c.Launcher.retry_delay = Int(4)

Time (seconds) to wait between retries for Hub API requests.

Time is scaled exponentially by the retry attempt (i.e. 2, 4, 8, 16 seconds)

config c.Launcher.retry_delay = Int(4)

Time (seconds) to wait between retries for Hub API requests.

Time is scaled exponentially by the retry attempt (i.e. 2, 4, 8, 16 seconds)

unique_name_from_repo(repo_url)

Generate a unique name for a git repo url

e.g. minrk-binder-example-abc123 from https://github.com/minrk/binder-example.git
