ldap - OpenLDAP Lightweight Directory Access Protocol API
#include <ldap.h>
The Lightweight Directory Access Protocol provides access to X.500 directory services. The services may be stand−alone part of a distributed directory service. This API supports LDAP over TCP, LDAP over SSL, and LDAP over IPC (UNIX domain sockets).
The OpenLDAP LDAP package includes a stand-alone server in slapd(8), various LDAP clients, and an LDAP client library used to provide programmatic access to the LDAP protocol. This man page gives an overview of the LDAP library routines.
Both synchronous and asynchronous APIs are provided. Also included are various routines to parse the results returned from these routines. These routines are found in the −lldap library.
The basic interaction is as follows. A session handle associated with created using ldap_init(3). The underlying session is established upon first use which is commonly an LDAP bind operation. The LDAP bind operation is performed by calling one of ldap_sasl_bind(3) and friends. Next, other operations are performed by calling one of the synchronous or asynchronous routines (e.g., ldap_search_ext_s(3) or ldap_search_ext(3) followed by ldap_result(3)). Results returned from these routines are interpreted by calling the LDAP parsing routines such as ldap_parse_result(3). The LDAP association and underlying connection is terminated by calling ldap_unbind_ext(3). Errors can be interpreted by calling ldap_err2string(3).
Search filters to be passed to the ldap search routines can be constructed by hand, or by calling the ldap_getfilter(3) routines, which use the ldapgetfilter.conf(5) file to turn a string (presumably that a user has typed) into a series of search filters.
Results obtained from the ldap search routines can be output by hand, by calling ldap_first_entry(3) and ldap_next_entry(3) to step through the entries returned, ldap_first_attribute(3) and ldap_next_attribute(3) to step through an entry’s attributes, and ldap_get_values(3) to retrieve a given attribute’s value. Attribute values may or may not be displayable.
Alternatively, the entry can be output automatically by calling the ldap_entry2text(3), ldap_entry2text_search(3), ldap_entry2html(3), or ldap_entry2html_search(3) routines. These routines look up the object class of the entry they are passed in the ldaptemplates.conf(5) file to decide which attributes to display and how to display them. Output is handled via a routine passed in as a parameter.
The ldap_url(3) routines can be used test a URL to see if it is an LDAP URL, to parse LDAP URLs into their component pieces, and to initiate searches directly using an LDAP URL.
The ldap_cache(3) routines implement a local client caching scheme, providing a substantial performance increase for repeated queries.
Also provided are various utility routines. The ldap_sort(3) routines are used to sort the entries and values returned via the ldap search routines. The ldap_friendly(3) routines are used to map from short two letter country codes (or other strings) to longer "friendlier" names.
Also included in the distribution is a set of lightweight Basic Encoding Rules routines. These routines are used by the LDAP library routines to encode and decode LDAP protocol elements using the (slightly simplified) Basic Encoding Rules defined by LDAP. They are not normally used directly by an LDAP application program excepting in the handling of controls and extended operations. The routines provide a printf and scanf-like interface, as well as lower-level access. These routines are found in the -llber library.
