Docker Jupiter persistent user and password

[piero.chia...@gmail.com]

hi jupyter experts,

I need to make use of several jupyter users each with their own user and password all with docker. The problem is that the users I create in the container docker will not stay and I will lose them all at the reboot. Is there a way to go from outside to dock users with their possword so you do not have to re-enter them every time you reboot the container? I would like the authentication procedure to roam local and not to use the various Gothub oAuth modules etc.

Bests,

piero

Hello Piero,

the clean solution is to set up an LDAP server and have the Docker container authenticate users with that.

A hacky solution could copy/append user definitions from an external volume when the container starts up.

hope that helps,
