How do I pip install a package in a private repo?

[kcpevey]

I have a package in a private repo on github. Locally, I would do a pip install of this package. How can I do this on qhub?

It seems that via the qhub_config.yaml it would need to be public?

There are two common approaches both use the fact that pip can install from a url a tarball. https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/reference/pip_install/#git. If you use the git+ssh you need to setup an github deploy key and setup your ssh .ssh/config to use the correct ssh private key. Or you can embed the username and api token https://docs.github.com/en/github/authenticating-to-github/creating-a-personal-access-token. You would call it as git+https://<username>:<token>@:git.example.com/MyProject#egg=MyProject
