ad_dir provides a easy interface to ActiveDirectory based on
the net-ldap gem.
ad_dir allows to query and manage entries of the AD directory.
Currently, it provides only a {AdDir::User} and a {AdDir::Group} model
based on the base class {AdDir::Entry}.
{AdDir::Entry} is kind of a proxy that wraps most of the instance methods of
Net::LDAP::Entry while most of the class methods deal with connecting
to the ActiveDirectory, as well as searching and retrieving entries.
The library tries to provide the same functionalities as given by ActiveRecord.
require 'ad_dir'
AdDir.establish_connection(
host: 'my.nice.com',
base: 'dc=my,dc=nice,dc=com',
username: 'cn=manager,dc=example,dc=com',
password: 'opensesame'
)
jdoe = AdDir::User.find('jdoe')
jdoe.groups
# => [<#AdDir::Group... ]
jdoe.add_group(AdDir::Group.find('admin'))- 'net-ldap' >= '0.16'
$ gem install ad_dir
