================================================= Common LDAP operation (for YunoHost but not only) ================================================= Moulinette is deeply integrated with LDAP which is used for a series of things like: * storing users * storing domains (for users emails) * SSO This page document how to uses it on a programming side in YunoHost. Getting access to LDAP in a command =================================== To get access to LDAP you need to authenticate against it, for that you need to declare you command with requiring authentication in the :ref:`actionsmap` this way: :: configuration: authenticate: all Here is a complete example: :: somecommand: category_help: .. actions: ### somecommand_stuff() stuff: action_help: ... api: GET /... configuration: authenticate: all This will prompt the user for a password in CLI. If you only need to **read** LDAP (and not modify it, for example by listing domains), then you prevent the need for a password by using the `ldap-anonymous` authenticator this way: :: configuration: authenticate: all authenticator: ldap-anonymous
