--------------------------------------- python-ldap: LDAP client API for Python --------------------------------------- What is python-ldap? python-ldap provides an object-oriented API to access LDAP directory servers from Python programs. Mainly it wraps the OpenLDAP client libs for that purpose. Additionally the package contains modules for other LDAP-related stuff (e.g. processing LDIF, LDAPURLs, LDAPv3 sub-schema, etc.). Not included: Direct BER support See INSTALL for version compability See TODO for planned features. Contributors welcome. For module documentation, see: http://www.python-ldap.org/ Quick usage example: import ldap l = ldap.initialize("ldap://my_ldap_server.my_domain") l.simple_bind_s("","") l.search_s("o=My Organisation, c=AU", ldap.SCOPE_SUBTREE, "objectclass=*") See directory Demo/ of source distribution package for more example code.
