Add support for SWHID as source of repository for jupyterhub
Closed, MigratedEdits Locked

Description

I recently created this issue on jupyterhub/binder gh project.

After discussing this during the last monthly jupyterhub meeting, it seems the idea looks interesting to jupyterhub developers.

So now the question is how to make this idea become real.

I mentioned the possibility of using the sloan grant to have this done by someone else than ourselves, this needs to be investigated.

Also this leads to the question of how such a feature should be implemented (vault vs API).

Thanks a lot @douardda for driving this.
I would suggest to use the API for this, not the Vault, if it is confirmed that the notebooks contain usually few files.
It could be justified to apply to the Sloan grant if part of the work would be to ensure that researcher's notebooks are actually archived in Software Heritage.

Note that the PR for repo2docker has been merged, and another PR for binderhub is currently in progress.
