Ocamldap is an implementation of the Light Weight Directory Access Protocol,
|
|
and a set of useful tools built around it. It includes high level libraries
|
|
for creating ldap clients and ldap servers. It also includes many of the
|
|
auxiliary tools needed for building intelligent solutions, and interoperating
|
|
with other directories. These include, an rfc2252 schema parser, and an schema
|
|
checker, an ldif parser and printer, a search filter parser (but no printer
|
|
yet), and a rudimentary ldap url parser. While including things already done
|
|
elsewhere is fun, ocamldap adds something as well. So it implements a concept
|
|
which tries to provide a basic unit of abstraction for managing directory data,
|
|
called a service. A service is a bit like a stored search filter that you give
|
|
a name. So you can ask ocamldap if an object satisfies its conditions, but
|
|
unlike a search filter you can also ask ocamldap to MAKE an object satisfy its
|
|
conditions. This can be really useful in distributed managment applications.
|
|
Needless to say, more on this in the Documentation section.
