A pure-Rust LDAP library using the Tokio stack.
The library has recently been ported to Tokio 0.2 and async/await. For previous users of the synchronous API, there are two changes to be aware of:
The connection handle, LdapConn
, must be mutable. All methods on LdapConn
now take &mut self
.
Every error return in the library now uses instances of LdapError
. Since
there is an automatic conversion to io::Error
, this shouldn't be too noticeable
in the applications.
The synchronous API is otherwise almost exactly the same. Most visible differences are in the asynchronous API, which is, with the introduction of async/await, much more pleasant to use. The internal restructuring has also made some aspects of library more robust and the implementation closer to the specification.
The library is client-only. One cannot make an LDAP server or a proxy with it.
The library can be used either synchronously or asynchronously. The aim is to offer essentially the same call interface for both flavors, with the necessary differences in interaction and return values according to the nature of I/O.
Add this to your Cargo.toml
:
toml
[dependencies.ldap3]
version = "0.7"
The following two examples perform exactly the same operation and should produce identical
results. They should be run against the example server in the data
subdirectory of the crate source.
Other sample programs expecting the same server setup can be found in the examples
subdirectory.
```rust use ldap3::{LdapConn, Scope, SearchEntry}; use ldap3::result::Result;
fn main() -> Result<()> { let mut ldap = LdapConn::new("ldap://localhost:2389")?; let (rs, _res) = ldap.search( "ou=Places,dc=example,dc=org", Scope::Subtree, "(&(objectClass=locality)(l=ma*))", vec!["l"] )?.success()?; for entry in rs { println!("{:?}", SearchEntry::construct(entry)); } Ok(ldap.unbind()?) } ```
```rust use ldap3::{LdapConnAsync, Scope, SearchEntry}; use ldap3::result::Result;
async fn main() -> Result<()> { let (conn, mut ldap) = LdapConnAsync::new("ldap://localhost:2389").await?; ldap3::drive!(conn); let (rs, _res) = ldap.search( "ou=Places,dc=example,dc=org", Scope::Subtree, "(&(objectClass=locality)(l=ma*))", vec!["l"] ).await?.success()?; for entry in rs { println!("{:?}", SearchEntry::construct(entry)); } Ok(ldap.unbind().await?) } ```
The following features are available at compile time:
sync (enabled by default): Synchronous API support.
tls (enabled by default): TLS support, backed by the native-tls
crate, which uses
a platform-specific TLS backend. This is an alias for tls-native.
tls-rustls (disabled by default): TLS support, backed by the Rustls library.
Without any features, only plain TCP connections (and Unix domain sockets on Unix-like platforms) are available. For TLS support, tls and tls-rustls are mutually exclusive: choosing both will produce a compile-time error.
