- Otherwise does not work with MySQL
- Change JSONDict to be TEXT (Unbounded) rather than VARCHAR.
This makes most sense, since you can't index these anyway.
- The 'ip' field in Server is set to 255, since that is the
max allowed length of DNS entries.
- Most of the rest of the Unicodes have approximately high
values that most people should not mostly run into
(famous last words).
If a user, alice, requests /user/bob/notebooks/mynotebook.ipynb,
redirect her to /user/alice/notebooks/mynotebook.ipynb.
Currently, such requests get stuck in a redirect loop because
the request will be redirected to login page with a next parameter
that when followed is again redirected.
When notebook_dir is consistent across users, this will allow
users to share notebook URLs. Fixes#424.
check_routes checks for missing routes for running users.
This is meant for when the proxy has been relaunched outside the Hub.
If spawners are slow to start, it's possible for check_routes to fire in the middle of spawning,
triggering addition of the user's server (which has no defined location yet) to the proxy before it's up.
If the spawning fails, the route will remain indefinitely (because it never should have been added in the first place), and the user will see 503 until their server is launched manually again.
Checking `spawn_pending` in user.running prevents this.
relies on CHP's host-based routing (a feature I didn't add!)
requires wildcard DNS and wildcard SSL for a proper setup
still lots to workout and cleanup in terms of cookies and where to use host, domain, path, but it works locally.
moves `spawn_pending` flag to only around start, not the HTTP wait.
Some Spawners may not know how to poll until start has finished (DockerSpawner).
Let's not require that they do.
Usernames that have an `@'-separated domain component
break JupyterHub when the server expects to see query
strings that contain an `@', when browsers and other
clients send `%40'.
