radiasoft / comsoljupyter Goto Github PK

Update radiasoft/configurable-http-proxy to allow for HTTP cookie rewriting as required in #1.

comsoljupyter web [args] is a very complex way of configuring the service. Pass a file that has all the configuration in place.

Need to add the following parameters:

• jupyterhub base url
• comsol base url

Ability to pass runtime information such as JupyterHub domain, Comsol domain, etc.

Currently everything is passed on the command line, a configuration file is necessary.

The demo HTTP server will serve as launch point for a Comsol session.

Requirements:

• Have internal user tracking.
• Render a page with a link that will launch Comsol with a running session.
• Make a Comsol session sticky so that the same user will open the same Comsol session.

Need a way to determine when a session has been idle so it can be logged out and the Comsol Credentials returned to the pool.

Currently the services requires environment variables and APIs available from JupyterHub at run time. This makes the service much harder to develop and debug, since it has to run within a functioning JupyterHub environment.

It would be good to have an alternate way of running the service where it doesn't depend on JupyterHub to develop and debug.

The Comsol Service needs to rely on the ComsolClient to issue a logout request.

The current algorithm for the proxy, only checks activity from the Nginx log to determine if a session has been idle.

If there is a bug and the log can never be read, therefore never registering a last usage for the session, the session will leak and never be collected. We should check also for sessions that do not have an activity and have a creation time past certain threshold.
