Forced to use environment variables :'(

See original GitHub issue

I think I’m forced to use environment variables to configure the OAuthenticator, for example: OAUTH2_AUTHORIZE_URL can only be provided as an environment variable. This is because it is used to set the tornado.auth.OAuth2Mixin’s _OAUTH_AUTHORIZE_URL value that we need to set.

https://github.com/jupyterhub/oauthenticator/blob/5b0b395326292d526a4c924c34c6d9d1d06818af/oauthenticator/generic.py#L24-L26

Perhaps we can make it so that overriding a traitlet called authorize_url will set the _OAUTH_AUTHORIZE_URL from the tornado.auth.OAuth2Mixin so we are not forced to use environment variables?

Same goes for the _OAUTH_ACCESS_TOKEN_URL I think…
