python-django-auth-ldap-1.2.2-1.lbn19.noarch

This is a Django authentication backend that authenticates against an LDAP service. Configuration can be as simple as a single distinguished name template, but there are many rich configuration options for working with users, groups, and permissions.

Full documentation can be found at http://pythonhosted.org/django-auth-ldap/; following is an example configuration, just to whet your appetite:

import ldap from django_auth_ldap.config import LDAPSearch, GroupOfNamesType

AUTH_LDAP_SERVER_URI = "ldap://ldap.example.com"

AUTH_LDAP_BIND_DN = "cn=django-agent,dc=example,dc=com" AUTH_LDAP_BIND_PASSWORD = "phlebotinum" AUTH_LDAP_USER_SEARCH = LDAPSearch("ou=users,dc=example,dc=com", ldap.SCOPE_SUBTREE, "(uid=%(user)s)")

AUTH_LDAP_GROUP_SEARCH = LDAPSearch("ou=django,ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com", ldap.SCOPE_SUBTREE, "(objectClass=groupOfNames)" ) AUTH_LDAP_GROUP_TYPE = GroupOfNamesType()

AUTH_LDAP_REQUIRE_GROUP = "cn=enabled,ou=django,ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com" AUTH_LDAP_DENY_GROUP = "cn=disabled,ou=django,ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com"

AUTH_LDAP_USER_ATTR_MAP = { "first_name": "givenName", "last_name": "sn", "email": "mail" }

AUTH_LDAP_PROFILE_ATTR_MAP = { "employee_number": "employeeNumber" }

AUTH_LDAP_USER_FLAGS_BY_GROUP = { "is_active": "cn=active,ou=django,ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com", "is_staff": "cn=staff,ou=django,ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com", "is_superuser": "cn=superuser,ou=django,ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com" }

AUTH_LDAP_PROFILE_FLAGS_BY_GROUP = { "is_awesome": "cn=awesome,ou=django,ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com", }

AUTH_LDAP_FIND_GROUP_PERMS = True

AUTH_LDAP_CACHE_GROUPS = True AUTH_LDAP_GROUP_CACHE_TIMEOUT = 3600

AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = ( django_auth_ldap.backend.LDAPBackend, django.contrib.auth.backends.ModelBackend, )
