LDAP-Rest

Lite LinID directory manager is a lightweight directory manager that provides LDAP integration through a plugin-based architecture. This system enables directory management operations with configurable authentication, extensible functionality through events/hooks, and extensible REST API.

Core plugins also provide plugins that ensure LDAP data consistency.

How it works

All configuration is done via command-line arguments and/or environment variables. Example:

npx ldap-rest --ldap-base 'dc=example,dc=com' \
    --ldap-dn 'cn=admin,dc=example,dc=com' --ldap-pwd admin \
    --ldap-url ldap://localhost \
    --plugin core/ldap/groups --ldap-group-base 'ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com' \
    --plugin core/ldap/externalUsersInGroups

Command-line options and environment variables
