active directory/ldap authentication
Closed this issue · 6 comments
Hi,
I am watching your very beautiful application and I want to implement (if it is possible) an alternative way for the user authentication.
I would need to use active directory/ldap because I already have a database with it for other web application....
If you can provide me some input to help me (github plug-in, useful links to read, ecc), I would be very very grateful to you :D
Thank you in advance.
Matteo

Hi Matteo,
since this is one of our first works, we used sorcery because we were experimenting other authentication frameworks simpler than devise which played well with mongoid.
What I can suggest, is to switch from sorcery to devise and use this one: https://github.com/cschiewek/devise_ldap_authenticatable
If you want to do this (replace sorcery with devise), a pull request against develop branch would be great
I'm not planning to use devise for icare at the moment but I would definitely do the switch before 1.0: #18
Thank you for the quick reply...
Yes, I saw this work... If I have time, I will do it.
If you have any other suggestion, it is welcome :D
the develop branch now features devise via 33e2dec (and bootstrap 3).
Don't know when we will be ready to release a new version, there were tons of changes, mainly on the front-end.
Let me know if you need further help, ldap implementation is a thing I'm interested in
Closing here, Devise was added in 0.11.0
Thank you very much, but how can I use it in this your web app?
I didn't find nothing in the wiki.
I have to search in the Devise's page?
Thank you very much in advance and sorry for the trouble.
yes, you should know devise and devise_ldap_authenticatable if you need to implement ldap authentication in icare
Feel free to start a wiki if you want to share your work
