=============
ldap plugin
=============
.. Warning::
This plugin is not compatible with the other authentication plugins.
This plugin allow your GNU Mediagoblin instance to authenticate against an
LDAP server.
Set up the ldap plugin
======================
1. Install the ``python-ldap`` package.
2. Add the following to your MediaGoblin .ini file in the ``[plugins]`` section::
[[mediagoblin.plugins.ldap]]
Configuring the ldap plugin
===========================
This plugin allows you to use multiple ldap servers for authentication.
In order to configure a server, add the following to you MediaGoblin .ini file
under the ldap plugin::
[[mediagoblin.plugins.ldap]]
[[[server1]]]
LDAP_SERVER_URI = 'ldap://ldap.testathon.net:389'
LDAP_USER_DN_TEMPLATE = 'cn={username},ou=users,dc=testathon,dc=net'
[[[server2]]]
...
Make any necessary changes to the above to work with your sever. Make sure
``{username}`` is where the username should be in LDAP_USER_DN_TEMPLATE.
If you would like to fetch the users email from the ldap server upon account
registration, add ``LDAP_SEARCH_BASE = 'ou=users,dc=testathon,dc=net'`` and
``EMAIL_SEARCH_FIELD = 'mail'`` under you server configuration in your
MediaGoblin .ini file.
.. Warning::
By default, this plugin provides no encryption when communicating with the
ldap servers. If you would like to use an SSL connection, change
LDAP_SERVER_URI to use ``ldaps://`` and whichever port you use. Default ldap
port for SSL connections is 636. If you would like to use a TLS connection,
add ``LDAP_START_TLS = 'true'`` under your server configuration in your
MediaGoblin .ini file.
