Juan Mauricio Matera: Configurando Jupyterhub con anaconda + sudospawn

Jupyter es un estupendo sistema de "programación literaria" en el que podemos escribir código en python o en varios otros lenguajes de alto nivel, ver directamente la salida (de texto o gráfica) junto con código latex a través de una interface web.

Para hacer trabajo colaborativo, o para usar esta herramienta para dar clases, es útil contar con un sistema que permita, también a través de una interface web, lanzar el servidor de notebooks de jupyter, y que los servidores corran en el espacio del usuario que hace login.

Jupyterhub es un paquete de python que permite a diferentes usuarios loguearse contra un servidor e iniciar sesiones del sistema de notebooks jupyter.

Por defecto, jupyterhub está configurado para correr como root. Sin embargo, si queremos exponer este servicio a una red pública, conviene correr este servicio como un usuario con privilegios limitados. Esto se logra mediante el paquete sudospawn. Esta parte la tomé de la guía (en inglés) https://github.com/jupyterhub/jupyterhub/wiki/Using-sudo-to-run-JupyterHub-without-root-privileges

Pasos a seguir:

1. Instalar anaconda. Se descarga en forma libre desde https://www.continuum.io/downloads. Notar que jupyterhub requiere la versión 3. de python.

2. Instalar jupyter (con anaconda, ya viene instalado por defecto)

3. Instalar jupyterhub

$ conda install --channel https://conda.anaconda.org/conda-forge jupyterhub

4. configurar un usuario jupyterhub, con una carpeta home que contenga
+ certificados
+ base de datos
+ carpeta compartida

$ mkdir [JUPYTER_HOMEPATH] 
$ mkdir [JUPYTER_HOMEPATH]/notebooks
$ mkdir [JUPYTER_HOMEPATH]/certs
$ useradd  -d [JUPYTER_HOMEPATH]  -s ""  jupyterhub
$ chown -R jupyterhub.jupyterhub [JUPYTER_HOMEPATH]
$ cd [JUPYTER_HOMEPATH]/certs 
$ openssl req -x509 -nodes -days 365 -newkey rsa:1024 -keyout server.key -out server.crt
$ chown -R jupyterhub.root server.*

5. Agregar el usuario jupyterhub al grupo shadow

$ usermod -a -G shadow jupyterhub

6. Instalar sudospawner. Esto lo hacemos vía el sistema de paquetes de anaconda.


    $ conda install --channel https://conda.anaconda.org/conda-forge sudospawner

    $ ln -s [ANACONDA_PATH]/bin/sudospawner /usr/local/bin/

7. Agregar al archivo sudoers (mediante el comando visudo)


$ visudo

y agregar al final del archivo las lineas


Cmnd_Alias JUPYTER_CMD = /usr/local/bin/sudospawner
jupyterhub ALL=(%jupyterhub) NOPASSWD:JUPYTER_CMD

Notar que es importante que los comandos
* sudospawner
* configurable-http-proxy
* jupyterhub-singleuser
* node

estén en /usr/local/bin y no en la carpeta de anacondapara que sudo lo reconozca como un comando válido.
Para esto, necesitamos crear en /usr/local/bin los correspondientes links a los archivos en [anaconda]/bin.

8. Agregar al grupo jupyterhub todos los usuarios que pueden usar jupyterhub.

$ usermod -a -G jupyterhub [user1]
$ usermod -a -G jupyterhub [user2]

9. Crear una carpeta /etc/jupyterhub/, generar un archivo de configuración y setear

$ mkdir /etc/jupyterhub

$ cd /etc/jupyterhub

$ [ANACONDA_PATH]/bin/jupyterhub --generate-config

$ nano jupyterhub_config.py

y modificar los siguientes parámetros

c.JupyterHub.admin_access =  True
c.JupyterHub.cookie_secret_file = '

[JUPYTER HOMEPATH]/jupyterhub_cookie_secret'
c.JupyterHub.ip = '[IP del servidor]'
c.JupyterHub.port = 8000 
c.JupyterHub.hub_port = 8082
c.JupyterHub.ssl_cert = '[JUPYTER HOMEPATH]/certs/server.crt'
c.JupyterHub.ssl_key = '

[JUPYTER HOMEPATH]/certs/server.key'
c.JupyterHub.spawner_class = 'sudospawner.SudoSpawner'

c.Spawner.notebook_dir = '~/jupyter-notebooks'

c.Spawner.ip = '[IP del servidor]'
c.Authenticator.admin_users = set({"[Usuario Administrador]"})
c.PAMAuthenticator.service = 'login'

10. Crear un archivo de arranque /etc/init.d/jupyterhub. El siguiente archivo es un ejemplo que funciona en Ubuntu

#! /bin/sh
### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides:          jupyterhub
# Required-Start:    $remote_fs $syslog

    RETVAL="$?"
    [ "$RETVAL" = 2 ] && return 2
    # Wait for children to finish too if this is a daemon that forks
    # and if the daemon is only ever run from this initscript.
    # If the above conditions are not satisfied then add some other code
    # that waits for the process to drop all resources that could be
    # needed by services started subsequently. A last resort is to
    # sleep for some time.

    start-stop-daemon -v --stop --oknodo --retry=0/30/KILL/5 --user $RUNAS_USER
    [ "$?" = 2 ] && return 2
    # Many daemons don't delete their pidfiles when they exit.
    rm -f $PIDFILE
    return "$RETVAL"
}

#
# Function that sends a SIGHUP to the daemon/service
#
do_reload() {
    #
    # If the daemon can reload its configuration without
    # restarting (for example, when it is sent a SIGHUP),
    # then implement that here.
    #
     start-stop-daemon --stop --signal 1 --quiet --pidfile $PIDFILE --name $NAME
    do_stop || return "$?"
    do_start || return "$?"
    return 0
}

case "$1" in
start)
    [ "$VERBOSE" != no ] && log_daemon_msg "Starting $DESC" "$NAME"
    do_start
    case "$?" in
        0|1) [ "$VERBOSE" != no ] && log_end_msg 0 ;;

11. Agregar jupyterhub a la lista de servicios de arranque.

$ for A in `echo 2 3 4 5`; do ln -s /etc/init.d/jupyterhub "/etc/rc$A.d/S99jupyterhub"; done

$ for A in `echo 0 6`; do ln -s /etc/init.d/jupyterhub "/etc/rc$A.d/K01jupyterhub"; done
