        # JupyterHub First Use Authenticator #
        
        A [JupyterHub](https://jupyterhub.readthedocs.io) authenticator that helps new users set their password on their first login to JupyterHub.
        
        **Are you running a workshop from a single physical location, such as a university seminar or a user group?**
        
        JupyterHub First Use Authenticator can simplify the user set up for you. It's very useful when using transient
        JupyterHub instances in a single physical location. It allows multiple users to log in, but you do not have install a pre-existing authentication setup. With this authenticator, users can just pick a username and password and get to work!
        
        ## Installation ##
        
        You can install this authenticator with:
        
        ```bash
        pip install jupyterhub-firstuseauthenticator
        ```
        
        Once installed, configure JupyterHub to use it by adding the following to your `jupyterhub_config.py` file:
        
        ```python
        c.JupyterHub.authenticator_class = 'firstuseauthenticator.FirstUseAuthenticator'
        ```
        
        ## Configuration ##
        
        ### FirstUseAuthenticator.dbm_path ###
        
        Path to the [dbm](https://docs.python.org/3.5/library/dbm.html) file, or a UNIX database file such as `passwords.dbm`, used to store usernames and passwords. The dbm file should be put where regular users do not have read/write access to it.
        
        This authenticator's default setting for the path to the `passwords.dbm` is the current directory from which JupyterHub is spawned.
        
        ### FirstUseAuthenticator.create_users ###
        
        Create users if they do not exist already.
        
        When set to False, users would have to be explicitly created before
        they can log in. Users can be created via the admin panel or by setting
        whitelist / admin list.
        
        Defaults to True.
        
        ## FAQ ##
        
        #### Why have a password DB and not use PAM ?
        
        For security Reasons. Users are likely to set an, insecure password at
        login time, and you do not want a brute-force/dictionary attack to manage to
        login by attacking via ssh or another mean.
        
        #### How can I change my password?
        
        To change your password, you should login in your jupyterhub account, 
        go to `<your_server_ip>/hub/auth/change-password` and change the password. 
        
        #### I'm getting an error when creating my username
        
        Usernames cannot contain spaces or commas. Please check if your username is free 
        of these characters. 
        
        ## Security
        
        When using `FirstUseAuthenticator` it is advised to automatically prepend the
        name of the user with a known-prefix (for example `jupyter`). This would prevent
        for example, someone to log-in as `root`, as the created user would be
        `jupyter-root`.
