Pre-populating some fields in the link generator

You can pre-populate some fields in order to make it easier for some users to create their own links. To do so, use the following URL parameters when accessing this page:

• hub is the URL of a JupyterHub

• repo is the URL of a github repository to which you’re linking

• branch is the branch you wish to pull from the Repository

For example, the following URL will pre-populate the form with the UC Berkeley DataHub as the JupyterHub:

https://jupyterhub.github.io/nbgitpuller/link?hub=https://datahub.berkeley.edu

Activating a tab when someone lands on this page

You can also activate one of the tabs in the form above by default when a user lands on this page. To do so, use the tab= REST parameter. Here are the possible values:

• ?tab=binder - activates the Binder tab

• ?tab=canvas - activates the Canvas tab.
