Summary

ActiveLdap lets you read and update LDAP entries in a completely object oriented fashion, even handling attributes with multiple names seamlessly. It was inspired by ActiveRecord so extending it to deal with custom LDAP schemas is as effortless as knowing the ‘ou’ of the objects, and the primary key. (fix this up some)

Example

  irb> require 'active_ldap'
  > true
  irb> user = ActiveLdap::User.new("drewry")
  > #<ActiveLdap::User:0x402e...
  irb> user.cn
  > "foo"
  irb> user.common_name
  > "foo"
  irb> user.cn = "Will Drewry"
  > "Will Drewry"
  irb> user.cn
  > "Will Drewry"
  irb> user.save
