Can this be used with OAuth authenticator #14

Closed ellisonbg closed 7 years ago

The README of this repo say that users have to already have local accounts on the system. However, when using the OAuth authenticator, local user accounts are created dynamically when the user first logs in. Will this approach with this authenticator?

I'd like to know this definitively as well. From what I understand about the flow of jupyterhub, it seems with c.LocalAuthenticator.create_system_users = True, the user account should be created immediately after auth and before the spawner is involved, so it should work.

Yes, all the same Local*Authenticator should work with SystemdSpawner as LocalProcessSpawner.
