search_attribute = ['memberOf']Perform a query
l = LDAPSearch(uri, bind_dn, password)
l.search(base_dn, search_filter, search_attribute)Perform a query with callback

return dn, recordQuerying with callback to process results on large queries:
l.search(base_dn, search_filter, search_attribute, LuvCallBacks)Output format
# without callback
