Stability, HTTPS & breaking changes.

Installation and upgrades

We recommend that you delete prior versions of the package and install the
latest version. If you are very familiar with Kubernetes, you can upgrade from
an older version, but we still suggest deleting and recreating your
installation.

Breaking changes

  • The name of a user pod and a dynamically created home directory PVC (PersistentVolumeClaim) no longer include
    the userid in them by default. If you are using dynamic PVCs for home
    directories (which is the default), you will need to manually rename these
    directories before upgrading.
    Otherwise, new PVCs will be created, and users might freak out when viewing the newly created directory and think that their home directory appears empty.

    See PR #56 on
    what needs to change.

  • A StorageClass
    is no longer created by default. This shouldn't affect most new installs,
    since most cloud provider installations have a default (as of Kubernetes 1.6).
    If you are using an older version of Kubernetes, the easiest thing to do is to
    upgrade to a newer version. If not, you can create a StorageClass manually
    and everything should continue to work.

  • token.proxy is removed. Use proxy.secretToken instead.
    If your config.yaml contains something that looks like the following:

    token:
        proxy: <some-secret>

    you should change that to:

    proxy:
        secretToken: <some-secret>

Added

  • Added GitHub Authentication support, thanks to Jason Kuruzovich.
  • Added Ingress support!
    If your cluster already has Ingress support (with automatic Let's Encrypt support, perhaps),
    you can easily use that now.
  • We now add a label to user pods / PVCs with their usernames.
  • Support using a static PVC for user home directories or for the hub database. This makes this release usable
    with clusters where you only have one NFS share that must be used for the whole hub.
  • PostgreSQL is now a supported hub database backend provider.
  • You can set annotations & labels on the proxy-public service now.

Changed

  • We now use the official configurable http proxy
    (CHP) as the proxy, rather than the unofficial
    nchp. This should be a
    no-op (or require no changes) for the most part. JupyterHub errors might
    display a nicer error page.
  • The version of KubeSpawner uses the official Kubernetes
    python client rather
    than pycurl. This helps with scalability a little.

Removed

  • The deprecated createNamespace parameter no longer works, alongside the
    deprecated name parameter. You probably weren't using these anyway - they
    were kept only for backwards compatibility with very early versions.
