Linking a created maintainer to the logged in user

[rberlin01]

When logged in via HTTP GUI, and using the RPSL submission form to create a new maintainer, the maintainer does not link to the user that is signed in. I have scoured the documentation and have not figured out the proper way to do this. I was able to link my user manually to the maintainer via manual database entries, but I suspect this isn't the intention.

To add some context, I'm using IRRd for an internal project (non public internet), and I want every member of this internet to have their own maintainer and login to view/manage it. So far, all is working, except for this issue where the user doesn't automatically get related to the created maintainer, and I do not see a method for doing so.

Any insight would be awesome! Thank you for maintaining the project!

I think this could be related to this suggestion I've made on #617.

Have you considered to support Oauth integrations?
PeeringDB already supports to be an OAuth base.

I believe we will see something in this direction by the RIRs in some time from now.
And that would be fantastic to IRRs.

Thank you for the reply. I do see mention of migrated mntners automatically being linked to the authenticated user, but not for newly created mntners. Since, in my case, I'm trying to use it for a non-public project, there is no mntners to migrate so we're just creating them.

How are you creating these maintainers? Because they can only be created by someone with override access, who then already has access to the maintainer. Not entirely following the process here.
