Description:

djangoauthldapcustom 2.4.1

This is a Django authentication backend that authenticates against an LDAP
service. Configuration can be as simple as a single distinguished name
template, but there are many rich configuration options for working with users,
groups, and permissions.

Documentation: https://django-auth-ldap.readthedocs.io/
PyPI: https://pypi.org/project/django-auth-ldap/
Repository: https://github.com/django-auth-ldap/django-auth-ldap
License: BSD 2-Clause

This version is supported on Python 3.6+; and Django 2.2+. It requires
python-ldap >= 3.1.

Installation
Install the package with pip:
$ pip install django-auth-ldap
It requires python-ldap >= 3.1. You’ll need the OpenLDAP libraries and
headers available on your system.
To use the auth backend in a Django project, add
'django_auth_ldap.backend.LDAPBackend' to AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS. Do
not add anything to INSTALLED_APPS.
AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = [
'django_auth_ldap.backend.LDAPBackend',
]
LDAPBackend should work with custom user models, but it does assume that a
database is present.

Note
LDAPBackend does not inherit from ModelBackend. It is possible to
use LDAPBackend exclusively by configuring it to draw group membership
from the LDAP server. However, if you would like to assign permissions to
individual users or add users to groups within Django, you’ll need to have
both backends installed:
AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = [
'django_auth_ldap.backend.LDAPBackend',
'django.contrib.auth.backends.ModelBackend',
]

Example Configuration
Here is a complete example configuration from settings.py that exercises
nearly all of the features. In this example, we’re authenticating against a
global pool of users in the directory, but we have a special area set aside for
Django groups (ou=django,ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com). Remember that most
of this is optional if you just need simple authentication. Some default
settings and arguments are included for completeness.
import ldap
from django_auth_ldap.config import LDAPSearch, GroupOfNamesType

# Baseline configuration.
AUTH_LDAP_SERVER_URI = 'ldap://ldap.example.com'

AUTH_LDAP_BIND_DN = 'cn=django-agent,dc=example,dc=com'

AUTH_LDAP_USER_SEARCH = LDAPSearch(
'ou=users,dc=example,dc=com',
ldap.SCOPE_SUBTREE,
'(uid=%(user)s)',
)
# Or:
# AUTH_LDAP_USER_DN_TEMPLATE = 'uid=%(user)s,ou=users,dc=example,dc=com'

# Set up the basic group parameters.
AUTH_LDAP_GROUP_SEARCH = LDAPSearch(
'ou=django,ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com',

# This is the default, but I like to be explicit.
AUTH_LDAP_ALWAYS_UPDATE_USER = True

# Use LDAP group membership to calculate group permissions.
AUTH_LDAP_FIND_GROUP_PERMS = True

# Cache distinguished names and group memberships for an hour to minimize
# LDAP traffic.
AUTH_LDAP_CACHE_TIMEOUT = 3600

# Keep ModelBackend around for per-user permissions and maybe a local
# superuser.

Contributing
If you’d like to contribute, the best approach is to send a well-formed pull
request, complete with tests and documentation. Pull requests should be
focused: trying to do more than one thing in a single request will make it more
difficult to process.
If you have a bug or feature request you can try logging an issue.
There’s no harm in creating an issue and then submitting a pull request to
resolve it. This can be a good way to start a conversation and can serve as an
anchor point.
