Usage
Connecting and Binding
Passing a TLS context will upgrade the connection using start tls
require "ldap"
host = "ldap.forumsys.com"
port = 389
user = "cn=read-only-admin,dc=example,dc=com"
pass = "password"
# Standard LDAP port with unencrypted socket
socket = TCPSocket.new(host, port)
# Providing a context will upgrade to encrypted comms using start tls (official method)
tls = OpenSSL::SSL::Context::Client.new
tls.verify_mode = OpenSSL::SSL::VerifyMode::NONE
# Bind to the server
client = LDAP::Client.new(socket, tls)
client.authenticate(user, pass)
# Can now perform LDAP operations
To use the non-standard LDAPS
(LDAP Secure, commonly known as LDAP over SSL) protocol then pass in a OpenSSL::SSL::Socket::Client
directly: LDAP::Client.new(tls_socket)
Querying
You can perform search requests
# You can use LDAP string filters directly
client.search(base: "dc=example,dc=com", filter: "(|(uid=einstein)(uid=training))")
# There are options to select particular attributes and limit response sizes
filter = LDAP::Request::Filter.equal("objectClass", "person")
client.search(
base: "dc=example,dc=com",
filter: filter,
size: 6,
attributes: ["hasSubordinates", "objectClass"]
)
# Filters can be combined using standard operations
filter = (
LDAP::Request::Filter.equal("objectClass", "person") &
LDAP::Request::Filter.equal("sn", "training")) |
LDAP::Request::FilterParser.parse("(uid=einstein)"
)
client.search(base: "dc=example,dc=com", filter: filter)
Search responses are Array(Hash(String, Array(String)))

{
"dn" => ["uid=einstein,dc=example,dc=com"],
