Using the python-ldap library: http://www.python-ldap.org/
Provides the foundation for manipulating ldap taking a highly object oriented approach.
Use the provided object types, override them, or create your own.
Add the three following environmental variables:
- LDAP_CONNECTION_URI
- LDAP_CONNECTION_DN
- LDAP_CONNECTION_PASSWORD
Here is an example:
import os
os.environ['LDAP_CONNECTION_URI'] = 'example.com'
os.environ['LDAP_CONNECTION_DN'] = 'CN=<username>,OU=People,DC=EXAMPLE,DC=COM'
os.environ['LDAP_CONNECTION_PASSWORD'] = '<password>'
from ooldap.foundation import LDAPObject
ldapobject = LDAPObject('CN=johndoe,OU=People,DC=EXAMPLE,DC=COM')
ldapobject.data
ldapobject.description
ldapobject.get_attribute('mail')
