Download the PHP package ldaptools/ldaptools without Composer

LdapTools

LdapTools is a feature-rich LDAP library for PHP 5.6+. It was designed to be customizable for use with pretty much any directory service, but contains default attribute converters and schemas for Active Directory and OpenLDAP.

• A fluent and easy to understand syntax for generating LDAP queries.
• Easily restore common LDAP objects (Users, Groups, Contacts, Computers, OUs).
• Retrieve LDAP objects as either a simple array or an object with automagic setters/getters.
• A logging mechanism for all LDAP operations
• An event system for further customization, extensibility, and integration.
• Parse and create LDIF files.
• View and modify Active Directory permissions.

Installation

The recommended way to install LdapTools is using Composer:

Getting Started

The easiest way to get started is by creating a YAML config file. See the example config file for basic usage. See the configuration file reference doc for a list of all available options.

Once you have a configuration file defined, you can get up and running by doing the following:

Searching LDAP

With the LdapManager up and going you can now easily build LDAP queries without having to remember all the special syntax for LDAP filters. All values are also automatically escaped. Check the tutorial for all available methods and the cookbook for more query examples.

See the docs for more information on building LDAP queries.

Modifying LDAP Objects

Modifying LDAP is as easy as searching for the LDAP object as described above, then making changes directly to the object and saving it back to LDAP using the LdapManager.

See the docs for more information on modifying LDAP objects.

Deleting LDAP Objects

Deleting LDAP objects is a simple matter of searching for the object you want to remove, then passing it to the delete method on the LdapManager:

Creating LDAP Objects

Creating LDAP objects is easily performed by just passing what you want the attributes to be and what container/OU the object should end up in:

See the docs for more information on creating LDAP objects.

• More work needed on the OpenLDAP schema.
