AttributeError: 'BinderUser' object has no attribute 'token'

[andersy005]

While using binderbot-cli, I keep getting AttributeError: 'BinderUser' object has no attribute 'token'. This looks like a bug in binderbot (I could be wrong :)). I was wondering if anyone has run into this issue?

Anderson, I am trying to fix pangeo gallery and am returning to this issue.

When you got this error, were you trying to run against https://aws-uswest2-binder.pangeo.io/? If so, that would explain things. That hub requires github auth.

How can we create a valid auth token for binderbot to access a protected binder. @yuvipanda any ideas?

Yes. At the time, this binder was going through lots of changes and the GitHub auth may have been one of them...

I think it's actually a useful problem to solve. If we can figure this out, we can basically use a private binder as a CI service. That will be super useful.
