# DESCRIPTION
|
|
# This is the main object class for connecting to an LDAP server,
|
|
# and perform searches and updates. It depends on the ::Entry
|
|
# object class, which is the data type returned from a search
|
|
# operation for instance.

=head1 NAME
|
|
|
|
Mozilla::LDAP::Conn - Object Oriented API for the LDAP SDK.
|
|
|
|
=head1 SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
use Mozilla::LDAP::Conn;
|
|
use Mozilla::LDAP::Utils;
|
|
|
|
=head1 ABSTRACT
|
|
|
|
This package is the main API for using our Perl Object Oriented LDAP
|
|
module. Even though it's certainly possible, and sometimes even necessary,
|
|
to call the native LDAP C SDK functions, we strongly recommend you use
|
|
these object classes.
|
|
|
|
It's not required to use our Mozilla::LDAP::Utils.pm package, but it's
|
|
convenient and good for portability if you use as much as you can from
|
|
that package as well. This implies using the LdapConf package as well,
|
|
even though you usually don't need to use it directly.
|
|
|
|
You should read this document in combination with the Mozilla::LDAP::Entry
|
|
document. Both modules depend on each other heavily.
|
|
|
|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
First, this is not ment to be a crash course in how LDAP works, if you
|
|
have no experience with LDAP, I suggest you read some of the literature
|
|
that's available out there. The LDAP Deployment Book from Netscape, or the
|
|
LDAP C SDK documentation are good starting points.
|
|
|
|
This object class basically tracks and manages the LDAP connection, it's
|
|
current status, and the current search operation (if any). Every time you
|
|
call the B<search> method of an object instance, you'll reset it's
|
|
internal state. It depends heavily on the ::Entry class, which are used to
|
|
retrieve, modify and update a single entry.
|
|

The B<search> and B<nextEntry> methods returns Mozilla::LDAP::Entry
|
|
objects, naturally. You also have to instantiate (and modify) a new
|
|
::Entry object when you want to add new entries to an LDAP
|
|
server. Alternatively, the add() method will also take a hash array as
|
|
argument, to make it easy to create new LDAP entries.
|
|
|
|
To assure that changes to an entry are updated properly, we strongly
|
|
recommend you use the native methods of the ::Entry object class. Even
|
|
though you can modify certain elements directly, it could cause changes
|
|
not to be committed to the LDAP server. If there's something missing from
|
|
the API, please let us know, or even fix it yourself.
|

|
|
=head1 SOME PERLDAP/OO BASICS
|
|
|
|
An entry consist of a DN, and a hash array of pointers to attribute
|
|
values. Each attribute value (except the DN) is an array, but you have to
|
|
remember the hash array in the entry stores pointers to the array, not the
|
|
array. So, to access the first CN value of an entry, you'd do
|
|
|
|
$cn = $entry->{cn}[0];
|
|
|
|
To set the CN attribute to a completely new array of values, you'd do
|
|
|
|
$entry->{cn} = [ "Leif Hedstrom", "The Swede" ];
|
|
|
|
As long as you remember this, and try to use native Mozilla::LDAP::Entry
|
|
methods, this package will take care of most the work. Once you master
|
|
this, working with LDAP in Perl is surprisingly easy.
|
|
|
|
We already mentioned DN, which stands for Distinguished Name. Every entry
|
|
on an LDAP server must have a DN, and it's always guaranteed to be unique
|
|
within your database. Some typical DNs are
|
|
|
|
uid=leif,ou=people,o=netscape.com
|
|
cn=gene-staff,ou=mailGroup,o=netscape.com
|
|
dc=data,dc=netscape,dc=com
|
|
|
|
There's also a term called RDN, which stands for Relative Distinguished
|
|
Name. In the above examples, C<uid=leif>, C<cn=gene-staff> and C<dc=data>
|
|
are all RDNs. One particular property for a RDN is that they must be
|
|
unique within it's sub-tree. Hence, there can only be one user with
|
|
C<uid=leif> within the ou=people tree, there can never be a name conflict.
|
|
|
|
=head1 CREATING A NEW OBJECT INSTANCE
|
|
|
|
Before you can do anything with PerLDAP, you'll need to instantiate at
|
|
least one Mozilla::LDAP::Conn object, and connect it to an LDAP server. As
|
|
you probably guessed already, this is done with the B<new> method:
|
|
|
|
$conn = new Mozilla::LDAP::Conn("ldap", "389", $bind, $pswd, $cert);
|
|
die "Couldn't connect to LDAP server ldap" unless $conn;
|
|
|
|
The arguments are: Host name, port number, and optionally a bind-DN, it's
|
|
password, and a certificate. If there is no bind-DN, the connection will
|
|
be bound as the anonymous user. If the certificate file is specified, the
|
|
connection will be over SSL, and you should then probably connect to port
|
|
636. You have to check that the object was created properly, and take
|
|
proper actions if you couldn't get a connection.
|
|
|
|
There's one convenient alternative call method to this function. Instead of
|
|
providing each individual argument, you can provide one hash array
|
|
(actually, a pointer to a hash). For example:
|
|
|
|
%ld = Mozilla::LDAP::Utils::ldapArgs();
|
|
$conn = new Mozilla::LDAP::Conn(\%ld);
|
|
|
|
The components of the hash are:
|
|
|
|
$ld->{"host"}
|
|
$ld->{"port"}
|
|
$ld->{"root"}
|
|
$ld->{"bind"}
|
|
$ld->{"pswd"}
|
|
$ld->{"cert"}
|
|
|
|
and (not used in the B<new> method)
|
|
|
|
$ld->{"scope"}
|
|
|
|
Once a connection is established, the package will take care of the
|
|
rest. If for some reason the connection is lost, the object should
|
|
reconnect on it's own, automatically. [Note: This doesn't work
|
|
now... ]. You can use the Mozilla::LDAP:Conn object for any number of
|
|
operations, but since everything is currently done synchronously, you can
|
|
only have one operation active at any single time. You can of course have
|
|
multiple Mozilla::LDAP::Conn instanced active at the same time.
|
|
|
|
=head1 PERFORMING LDAP SEARCHES
|
|
|
|
We assume that you are familiar with the LDAP filter syntax already, all
|
|
searches performed by this object class uses these filters. You should
|
|
also be familiar with LDAP URLs, and LDAP object classes. There are some
|
|
of the few things you actually must know about LDAP. Perhaps the simples
|
|
filter is
|
|
|
|
(uid=leif)
|
|
|
|
This matches all entries with the UID set to "leif". Normally that
|
|
would only match one entry, but there is no guarantee for that. To find
|
|
everyone with the name "leif", you'd instead do
|
|
|
|
(cn=*leif*)
|
|
|
|
A more complicated search involves logic operators. To find all mail
|
|
groups owned by "leif" (or actually his DN), you could do
|
|
|
|
(&(objectclass=mailGroup)(owner=uid=leif,ou=people,o=netscape))
|
|
|
|
The I<owner> attribute is what's called a DN attribute, so to match on it
|
|
we have to specify the entire DN in the filter above. We could of course
|
|
also do a sub string "wild card" match, but it's less efficient, and
|
|
requires indexes to perform reasonably well.
|
|
|
|
Ok, now we are prepared to actually do a real search on the LDAP server:
|
|
|
|
$base = "o=netscape.com";
|
|
$conn = new Mozilla::LDAP::Conn("ldap", "389", "", ""); die "No LDAP
|
|
connection" unless $conn;
|
|
|
|
$entry = $conn->search($base, "subtree", "(uid=leif)");
|
|
if (! $entry)
|
|
{ # handle this event, no entries found, dude!
|
|
}
|
|
else
|
|
{
|
|
while ($entry)
|
|
{
|
|
$entry->printLDIF();
|
|
$entry = $conn->nextEntry();
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
This is in fact a poor mans implementation of the I<ldapsearch> command
|
|
line utility. The B<search> method returns an Mozilla::LDAP::Entry object,
|
|
which holds the first entry from the search, if any. To get the second and
|
|
subsequent entries you call the B<entry> method, until there are no more
|
|
entries. The B<printLDIF> method is a convenient function, requesting the
|
|
entry to print itself on STDOUT, in LDIF format.
|
|
|
|
The arguments to the B<search> methods are the I<LDAP Base-DN>, the
|
|
I<scope> of the search ("base", "one" or "sub"), and the actual LDAP
|
|
I<filter>. The entry return contains the DN, and all attribute values. To
|
|
access a specific attribute value, you just have to use the hash array:
|
|
|
|
$cn = $entry->{cn}[0];
|
|
|
|
Since many LDAP attributes can have more than one value, value of the hash
|
|
array is another array (or actually a pointer to an array). In many cases
|
|
you can just assume the value is in the first slot (indexed by [0]), but
|
|
for some attributes you have to support multiple values. To find out how
|
|
many values a specific attribute has, you'd call the B<size> method:
|
|
|
|
$numVals = $entry->size("objectclass");
|
|
|
|
One caveat: Many LDAP attributes are case insensitive, but the methods in
|
|
the Mozilla::LDAP::Entry package are not aware of this. Hence, if you
|
|
compare values with case sensitivity, you can experience weird
|
|
behavior. If you know an attribute is CIS (Case Insensitive), make sure
|
|
you do case insensitive string comparisons.
|
|
|
|
Unfortunately some methods in this package can't do this, and by default
|
|
will do case sensitive comparisons. We are working on this, and in a
|
|
future release some of the methods will handle this more gracefully. As an
|
|
extension (for LDAP v3.0) we could also use schema discovery for handling
|
|
this even better.
|
|
|
|
There is an alternative search method, to use LDAP URLs instead of a
|
|
filter string. This can be used to easily parse and process URLs, which is
|
|
a compact way of storing a "link" to some specific LDAP information. To
|
|
process such a search, you use the B<searchURL> method:
|
|
|
|
$entry->searchURL("ldap:///o=netscape.com??sub?(uid=leif");
|
|
|
|
As it turns out, the B<search> method also supports LDAP URL searches. If
|
|
the search filter looks like a proper URL, we will actually do an URL
|
|
search instead. This is for backward compatibility, and for ease of use.
|
|
|
|
To achieve better performance and use less memory, you can limit your
|
|
search to only retrieve certain attributes. With the LDAP URLs you specify
|
|
this as an optional parameter, and with the B<search> method you add two
|
|
more options, like
|
|
|
|
$entry = $conn->search($base, "sub", $filter, 0, ("mail", "cn");
|
|
|
|
The last argument specifies an array of attributes to retrieve, the fewer
|
|
the attributes, the faster the search will be. The second to last argument
|
|
is a boolean value indicating if we should retrieve only the attribute
|
|
names (and no values). In most cases you want this to be FALSE, to
|
|
retrieve both the attribute names, and all their values. To do this with
|
|
the B<searchURL> method, add a second argument, which should be 0 or 1.
|
|
|
|
=head1 MODIFYING AND CREATING NEW LDAP ENTRIES
|
|
|
|
Once you have an LDAP entry, either from a search, or created directly to
|
|
get a new empty object, you are ready to modify it. If you are creating a
|
|
new entry, the first thing to set it it's DN:
|
|
|
|
$entry->setDN("uid=leif,ou=people,o=netscape.com");
|
|
|
|
You should not do this for an existing LDAP entry, changing the RDN (or
|
|
DN) for such an entry must be done with B<modifyRDN>. To populate (or
|
|
modify) some other attributes, we can do
|
|
|
|
$entry->{objectclass} = [ "top", "person", "inetOrgPerson" ];
|
|
$entry->{cn} = [ "Leif Hedstrom" ];
|
|
$entry->{mail} = [ "leif@netscape.com" ];
|
|
|
|
Once you are done modifying your LDAP entry, call the B<update> method
|
|
from the Mozilla::LDAP::Conn object instance:
|
|
|
|
$conn->update($entry);
|
|
|
|
Or, if you are creating an entirely new LDAP entry, you must call the
|
|
B<add> method:
|
|
|
|
$conn->add($entry);
|
|
|
|
If all comes to worse, and you have to remove an entry again from the LDAP
|
|
server, just call the B<delete> method, like
|
|
|
|
$conn->delete($entry);
|
|
|
|
You can't use native Perl functions like push() and splice() on attribute
|
|
values, since they won't update the ::Entry instance state properly.
|
|
Instead use one of the methods provided by the object class, for instance
|
|
|
|
$conn->addValue("cn", "The Swede");
|
|
$conn->removeValue("mailAlternateAddress", "leif@mcom.com");
|
|
$conn->remove("seeAlso");
|
|
|
|
These methods return a TRUE or FALSE value, depending on the outcome
|
|
of the operation. If there was no value to remove, or a value already
|
|
exists, we return FALSE, otherwise TRUE. To check if an attribute has a
|
|
certain value, use the B<hasValue> method, like
|
|
|
|
if ($conn->hasValue("mail", "leif@netscape.com")) {
|
|
# Do something
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
There is a similar method, B<matchValue>, which takes a regular
|
|
expression to match against, instead of the entire string. For more
|
|
information this and other methods in the Entry class, see below.
|
|
|
|
=head1 OBJECT CLASS METHODS
|
|
|
|
We have already described the fundamentals of this class earlier. This is
|
|
a summary of all available methods which you can use. Be careful not to
|
|
use any undocumented features or heaviour, since the internals in this
|
|
module is likely to change.
|
|
|
|
=head2 Searching and updating entries
|
|
|
|
=over 13
|
|
|
|
=item B<new>
|
|
|
|
This creates and initialized a new LDAP connection and object. The
|
|
required arguments are host name, port number, bind DN and the bind
|
|
password. An optional argument is a certificate (public key), which causes
|
|
the LDAP connection to be established over an SSL channel. Currently we do
|
|
not support Client Authentication, so you still have to use the simple
|
|
authentication method (i.e. with a password).
|
|
|
|
A typical usage could be something like
|
|
|
|
%ld = Mozilla::LDAP::Utils::ldapArgs();
|
|
$conn = new Mozilla::LDAP::Conn(\%ld);
|
|
|
|
Also, remember that if you use SSL, the port is (usually) 636.
|
|
|
|
=item B<search>
|
|
|
|
The B<search> method is the main entry point into this module. It requires
|
|
at least three arguments: The Base DN, the scope, and the search
|
|
strings. Two more optional arguments can be given, the first specifies if
|
|
only attribute names should be returned (TRUE or FALSE). The second
|
|
argument is a list (array) of attributes to return.
|
|
|
|
The last option is very important for performance. If you are only
|
|
interested in say the "mail" and "mailHost" attributes, specifying this in
|
|
the search will signficantly reduce the search time. An example of an
|
|
efficient search is
|
|
|
|
@attr = ("cn", "uid", "mail");
|
|
$filter = "(uid=*)";
|
|
$entry = $conn->search($root, $scope, $filter, 0, @attr);
|
|
while ($entry) {
|
|
# do something
|
|
$entry = $conn->nextEntry();
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
=item B<searchURL>
|
|
|
|
This is almost identical to B<search>, except this function takes only two
|
|
arguments, an LDAP URL and an optional flag to specify if we only want the
|
|
attribute names to be returned (and no values). This function isn't very
|
|
useful, since the B<search> method will actually honor properly formed
|
|
LDAP URL's, and use it if appropriate.
|
|
|
|
=item B<nextEntry>
|
|
|
|
This method will return the next entry from the search result, and can
|
|
therefore only be called after a succesful search has been initiated. If
|
|
there are no more entries to retrieve, it returns nothing (empty string).
|
|
|
|
=item B<update>
|
|
|
|
After modifying an Ldap::Entry entry (see below), use the B<update>
|
|
method to commit changes to the LDAP server. Only attributes that has been
|
|
changed will be updated, assuming you have used the appropriate methods in
|
|
the Entry object. For instance, do not use B<push> or B<splice> to
|
|
modify an entry, the B<update> will not recognize such changes.
|
|
|
|
To change the CN value for an entry, you could do
|
|
|
|
$entry->{cn} = ["Leif Hedstrom"];
|
|
$conn->update($entry);
|
|
|
|
=item B<delete>
|
|
|
|
This will delete the current entry, or possibly an entry as specified with
|
|
the optional argument. You can use this function to delete any entry you
|
|
like, by passing it an explicit DN. If you don't pass it this argument,
|
|
B<delete> defaults to delete the current entry, from the last call to
|
|
B<search> or B<entry>.
|
|
|
|
=item B<add>
|
|
|
|
Add a new entry to the LDAP server. Make sure you use the B<new> method
|
|
for the Mozilla::LDAP::Entry object, to create a proper entry.
|
|
|
|
=item B<close>
|
|
|
|
Close the LDAP connection, and clean up the object. If you don't call this
|
|
directly, the destructor for the object instance will do the job for you.
|
|
|
|
=item B<modifyRDN>
|
|
|
|
This will rename the specified LDAP entry, by modifying it's RDN. For
|
|
example:
|
|
|
|
$rdn = "uid=fiel, ou=people, dc=netscape, dc=com";
|
|
$conn->modifyRDN($rdn, $entry->getDN());

|
|

|
|
|
|
=item B<isURL>
|
|
|
|
Returns TRUE or FALSE if the given argument is a properly formed URL.
|
|
|
|
=item B<getLD>
|
|
|
|
Return the (internal) LDAP* connection handle, which you can use
|
|
(carefully) to call the native LDAP API functions. You shouldn't have to
|
|
use this in most cases, unless of course our OO layer is seriously flawed.
|
|
|
|
=item B<getErrorCode>
|
|
|
|
Return the error code (numeric) from the last LDAP API function
|
|
call. Remember that this can only be called I<after> the successful
|
|
creation of a new object instance. A typical usage could be
|
|
|
|
if (! $opt_n) {
|
|
$conn->modifyRDN($rdn, $entry->getDN());
|
|
$conn->printError() if $conn->getErrorCode();
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
Which will report any error message as generated by the call to B<modifyRDN>.
|
|
|
|
|
|
=item B<getErrorString>
|
|
|
|
Very much like B<getError>, but return a string with a human readable
|
|
error message. This can then be used to print a good error message on the
|
|
console.
|
|
|
|
=item B<printError>
|
|
|
|
Print the last error message on standard output.
|
|
|
|
=item B<setRebindProc>
|
|
|
|
Tell the LDAP SDK to call the provided Perl function when it has to follow
|
|
referrals. The Perl function should return an array of three elements, the
|
|
new Bind DN, password and authentication method. A typical usage is
|
|
|
|
sub rebindProc {
|
|
return ("uid=ldapadmin", "secret", LDAP_AUTH_SIMPLE);
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
$ld->setRebindProc(\&rebindProc);
|
|
|
|
=item B<setDefaultRebindProc>
|
|
|
|
This is very much like the previous function, except instead of specifying
|
|
the function to use, you give it the DN, password and Auth method. Then
|
|
we'll use a default rebind procedure (internal in C) to handle the rebind
|
|
credentials. This was a solution for the Windows/NT problem/bugs we have
|
|
with rebind procedures written in Perl.
