ldapper

1.0.3

A simple LDAP server for user accounts.

About LDAPPER

This is a very simple implementation of an LDAP server, backed by a Postgres database. If you're fed up with the complicated mess that is OpenLDAP or ActiveDirectory, and just need a simple accounts database that can be accessed from other services, this is for you!

How To

Compile a binary for ldapper with sbcl --eval (asdf:make :ldapper), or download one from the releases.

Before you do anything else, please read the help documentation with the supported options and parameters thoroughly:

ldapper help

To install the necessary systemd service and get everything set up, simply run install, passing along the database parameters:

LDAPPER_POSTGRES_PW=... ldapper install

And that's it. Your LDAP server is up and running! To add new user accounts, you can invoke ldapper from any other place that has access to the Postgres database:

ldapper add MyAccount whatever@example.com

You can also mass import accounts from an ldif file or the current OpenLDAP database:

ldapper import accounts.ldif
ldapper import <(slapcat -b "dc=example,dc=com")

(note the --dry-run flag for that)

And that's pretty much it. For more information, see the help as described above.
