# This package defines an object class to manage one single LDAP

|
# entry. This entry can either be a newly created one, or one
|
|
# retrieved from an LDAP server, using the Mozilla::LDAP::Conn class.

=head1 NAME
|
|
|
|
Mozilla::LDAP::Entry.pm - Object class to hold one LDAP entry.
|
|
|
|
=head1 SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
use Mozilla::LDAP::Conn;
|
|
use Mozilla::LDAP::Entry;
|
|
|
|
=head1 ABSTRACT
|
|
|
|
The LDAP::Conn object is used to perform LDAP searches, updates, adds and
|
|
deletes. All such functions works on LDAP::Entry objects only. All
|
|
modifications and additions you'll do to an LDAP entry, will be done
|
|
through this object class.
|
|
|
|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
The LDAP::Entry object class is built on top of the Tie::Hash standard
|
|
object class. This gives us several powerful features, the main one being
|
|
to keep track of what is changing in the LDAP entry. This makes it very
|
|
easy to write LDAP clients that needs to update/modify entries, since
|
|
you'll just do the changes, and this object class will take care of the
|
|
rest.
|
|
|
|
We define local functions for STORE, FETCH, DELETE, EXISTS, FIRSTKEY and
|
|
NEXTKEY in this object class, and inherit the rest from the super
|
|
class. Overloading these specific functions is how we can keep track of
|
|
what is changing in the entry, which turns out to be very convenient. We
|
|
can also easily "loop" over the attribute types, ignoring internal data,
|
|
or deleted attributes.
|
|
|
|
Most of the methods here either return the requested LDAP value, or a
|
|
status code. The status code (either 0 or 1) indicates the failure or
|
|
success of a certain operation. 0 (False) meaning the operation failed,
|
|
and a return code of 1 (True) means complete success.
|
|
|
|
One thing to remember is that in LDAP, attribute names are case
|
|
insensitive. All methods in this class are aware of this, and will convert
|
|
all attribute name arguments to lower case before performing any
|
|
operations. This does not mean that the values are case insensitive. On
|
|
the contrary, all values are considered case sensitive by this module,
|
|
even if the LDAP server itself treats it as a CIS attribute.
|
|
|
|
=head1 OBJECT CLASS METHODS
|
|
|
|
The LDAP::Entry class implements many methods you can use to access and
|
|
modify LDAP entries. It is strongly recommended that you use this API as
|
|
much as possible, and avoid using the internals of the class
|
|
directly. Failing to do so may actually break the functionality.
|
|
|
|
=head2 Creating a new entry
|
|
|
|
To create a completely new entry, use the B<new> method, for instance
|
|
|
|
$entry = new Mozilla::LDAP::Entry()
|
|
$entry->setDN("uid=leif,ou=people,dc=netscape,dc=com");
|
|
$entry->{objectclass} = [ "top", "person", "inetOrgPerson" ];
|
|
$entry->addValue("cn", "Leif Hedstrom");
|
|
$entry->addValue("sn", "Hedstrom");
|
|
$entry->addValue("givenName", "Leif");
|
|
$entry->addValue("mail", "leif@netscape.com);
|
|
|
|
$conn->add($entry);
|
|
|
|
This is the minimum requirements for an LDAP entry. It must have a DN, and
|
|
it must have at least one objectclass. As it turns out, by adding the
|
|
I<person> and I<inetOrgPerson> classes, we also must provide some more
|
|
attributes, like I<CN> and I<SN>. This is because the object classes have
|
|
these attributes marked as "required", and we'd get a schema violation
|
|
without those values.
|
|
|
|
In the example above we use both native API methods to add values, and
|
|
setting an attribute entire value set directly. Note that the value set is
|
|
a pointer to an array, and not the array itself. In the example above, the
|
|
object classes are set using an anonymous array, which the API handles
|
|
properly. It's important to be aware that the attribute value list is
|
|
indeed a pointer.
|
|
|
|
Finally, as you can see there's only only one way to add new LDAP entries,
|
|
and it's called add(). It normally takes an LDAP::Entry object instance as
|
|
argument, but it can also be called with a regular hash array if so
|
|
desired.
|
|
|
|
=head2 Adding and removing attributes and values
|
|
|
|
This is the main functionality of this module. Use these methods to do any
|
|
modifications and updates to your LDAP entries.
|
|
|
|
=over 13
|
|
|
|
=item B<attrModified>
|
|
|
|
This is an internal function, that can be used to force the API to
|
|
consider an attribute (value) to have been modified. The only argument is
|
|
the name of the attribute. In almost all situation, you never, ever,
|
|
should call this. If you do, please contact the developers, and as us to
|
|
fix the API. Example
|
|
|
|
$entry->attrModified("cn");
|
|
|
|
=item B<isModified>
|
|
|
|
This is a somewhat more useful method, which will return the internal
|
|
modification status of a particular attribute. The argument is the name of
|
|
the attribute, and the return value is True or False. If the attribute has
|
|
been modified, in any way, we return True (1), otherwise we return False
|
|
(0). For example:
|
|
|
|
if ($entry->isModified("cn")) { # do something }
|
|
|
|
=item B<isDeleted>
|
|
|
|
This is almost identical to B<isModified>, except it tests if an attribute
|
|
has been deleted. You use it the same way as above, like
|
|
|
|
if (! $entry->isDeleted("cn")) { # do something }
|
|
|
|
=item B<isAttr>
|
|
|
|
This method can be used to decide if an attribute name really is a valid
|
|
LDAP attribute in the current entry. Use of this method is fairly limited,
|
|
but could potentially be useful. Usage is like previous examples, like
|
|
|
|
if ($entry->isAttr("cn")) { # do something }
|
|
|
|
The code section will only be executed if these criterias are true:
|
|
|
|
1. The name of the attribute is a non-empty string.
|
|
2. The name of the attribute does not begin, and end, with an
|
|
underscore character (_).
|
|
2. The attribute has one or more values in the entry.
|
|
|
|
=item B<remove>
|
|
|
|
This will remove the entire attribute, including all it's values, from the
|
|
entry. The only argument is the name of the attribute to remove. Let's say
|
|
you want to nuke all I<mailAlternateAddress> values (i.e. the entire
|
|
attribute should be removed from the entry):
|
|
|
|
$entry->remove("mailAlternateAddress");
|
|
|
|
=item B<removeValue>
|
|
|
|
Remove a value from an attribute, if it exists. Of course, if the
|
|
attribute has no such value, we won't try to remove it, and instead return
|
|
a False (0) status code. The arguments are the name of the attribute, and
|
|
the particular value to remove. Note that values are considered case
|
|
sensitive, so make sure you preserve case properly. An example is:
|
|
|
|
$entry->removeValue("objectclass", "nscpPerson");
|
|
|
|
=item B<removeDNValue>
|
|
|
|
This is almost identical to B<removeValue>, except it will normalize the
|
|
attribute values before trying to remove them. This is useful if you know
|
|
that the attribute is a DN value, but perhaps the values are not cosistent
|
|
in all LDAP entries. For example
|
|
|
|
$dn = "uid=Leif, dc=Netscape, dc=COM";
|
|
$entry->removeDNValue("owner", $dn);
|
|
|
|
|
|
will remove the owner "uid=leif,dc=netscape,dc=com", no matter how it's
|
|
capitalized and formatted in the entry.
|
|
|
|
=item B<addValue>
|
|
|
|
Add a value to an attribute. If the attribute value already exists, or we
|
|
couldn't add the value for any other reason, we'll return FALSE (0),
|
|
otherwise we return TRUE (1). The first two arguments are the attribute
|
|
name, and the value to add.
|
|
|
|
The optional third argument is a flag, indicating that we want to add the
|
|
attribute without checking for duplicates. This is useful if you know the
|
|
values are unique already, or if you perhaps want to allow duplicates for
|
|
a particular attribute. To add a CN to an existing entry/attribute, do:
|
|
|
|
$entry->addValue("cn", "Leif Hedstrom");
|
|
|
|
=item B<addDNValue>
|
|
|
|
Just like B<addValue>, except this method assume the value is a DN
|
|
attribute. For instance
|
|
|
|
$dn = "uid=Leif, dc=Netscape, dc=COM";
|
|
$entry->addDNValue("uniqueMember", $dn);
|
|
|
|
|
|
will only add the DN for "uid=leif" if it does not exist as a DN in the
|
|
uniqueMember attribute.
|
|
|
|
=item B<setValue>
|
|
|
|
Set the specified attribute to the new value (or values), overwriting
|
|
whatever old values it had before. This is a little dangerous, since you
|
|
can lose attribute values you didn't intend to remove. Therefore, it's
|
|
usually recommended to use B<removeValue()> and B<setValue()>. If you know
|
|
exactly what the new values should be like, you can use this method like
|
|
|
|
$entry->setValue("cn", "Leif Hedstrom", "The Swede");
|
|
$entry->setValue("mail", @mailAddresses);
|
|
|
|
or if it's a single value attribute,
|
|
|
|
$entry->setValue("uidNumber", "12345");
|
|
|
|
=item B<hasValue>
|
|
|
|
Return TRUE or FALSE if the attribute has the specified value. A typical
|
|
usage is to see if an entry is of a certain object class, e.g.
|
|
|
|
if ($entry->hasValue("objectclass", "person", 1)) { # do something }
|
|
|
|
The (optional) third argument indicates if the string comparison should be
|
|
case insensitive or not. The first two arguments are the name and value of
|
|
the attribute, as usual.
|
|
|
|
=item B<hasDNValue>
|
|
|
|
Exactly like B<hasValue>, except we assume the attribute values are DN
|
|
attributes.
|
|
|
|
=item B<matchValue>
|
|
|
|
This is very similar to B<hasValue>, except it does a regular expression
|
|
match instead of a full string match. It takes the same arguments,
|
|
including the optional third argument to specify case insensitive
|
|
matching. The usage is identical to the example for hasValue, e.g.
|
|
|
|
if ($entry->matchValue("objectclass", "pers", 1)) { # do something }
|
|
|
|
=item B<matchDNValue>
|
|
|
|
Like B<matchValue>, except the attribute values are considered being DNs.
|
|
|
|
=item B<setDN>
|
|
|
|
Set the DN to the specified value. Only do this on new entries, it will
|
|
not work well if you try to do this on an existing entry. If you wish to
|
|
renamed an entry, use the Mozilla::Conn::modifyRDN method instead.
|
|
Eventually we'll provide a complete "rename" method. To set the DN for a
|
|
newly created entry, we can do
|
|
|
|
$entry->setDN("uid=leif,ou=people,dc=netscape,dc=com");
|
|
|
|
There is an optional third argument, a boolean flag, indicating that we
|
|
should normalize the DN before setting it. This will assure a consistent
|
|
format of your DNs.
|
|
|
|
=item B<getDN>
|
|
|
|
Return the DN for the entry. For instance
|
|
|
|
print "The DN is: ", $entry->getDN(), "\n";
|
|
|
|
Just like B<setDN>, this method also has an optional argument, which
|
|
indicates we should normalize the DN before returning it to the caller.
|
|
|
|
=item B<size>
|
|
|
|
Return the number of values for a particular attribute. For instance
|
|
|
|
$entry->{cn} = [ "Leif Hedstrom", "The Swede" ];
|
|
$numVals = $entry->size("cn");
|
|
|
|
This will set C<$numVals> to two (2). The only argument is the name of the
|
|
attribute, and the return value is the size of the value array.
|
|
|
|
=item B<exists>
|
|
|
|
Return TRUE if the specified attribute is defined in the LDAP entry. This
|
|
is useful to know if an entry has a particular attribute, regardless of
|
|
the value. For instance:
|
|
|
|
if ($entry->exists("jpegphoto")) { # do something special }
|
|
|
|
=item B<printLDIF>
|
|
|
|
Print the entry (on STDOUT) in a format called LDIF (LDAP Data Interchange
|
|
Format, RFC xxxx). An example of an LDIF entry is:
|
|
|
|
dn: uid=leif,ou=people,dc=netscape,dc=com
|
|
objectclass: top
|
|
objectclass: person
|
|
objectclass: inetOrgPerson
|
|
uid: leif
|
|
cn: Leif Hedstrom
|
|
mail: leif@netscape.com
|
|
|
|
The above would be the result of
|
|
|
|
$entry->printLDIF();
|
|
|
|
If you need to write to a file, close STDOUT, and open up a file with that
|
|
file handle instead. For more useful LDIF functionality, check out the
|
|
Mozilla::LDAP::LDIF.pm module.
|
|

|
|
=head2 Deleting entries
|
|
|
|
To delete an LDAP entry from the LDAP server, you have to use the
|
|
B<delete> method from the Mozilla::LDAP::Conn module. It will actually
|
|
delete any entry, if you provide an legitimate DN.
|
|
|
|
=head2 Renaming entries
|
|
|
|
Again, there's no functionality in this object class to rename the entry
|
|
(i.e. changing it's DN). For now, there is a way to modify the RDN
|
|
component of a DN through the Mozilla::LDAP::Conn module, with
|
|
B<modifyRDN>. Eventually we hope to have a complete B<rename> method,
|
|
which should be capable of renaming any entry, in any way, including
|
|
moving it to a different part of the DIT (Directory Information Tree).
|
|
|
|
