LWP::Protocol::ldap(3)               User Contributed Perl Documentation              LWP::Protocol::ldap(3)



NAME
       LWP::Protocol::ldap - Provide LDAP support for LWP::UserAgent

SYNOPSIS
         use LWP::UserAgent;

         $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new();
         $res = $ua->get('ldap://ldap.example.com/' .
                         'o=University%20of%20Michigan,c=US??sub?(cn=Babs%20Jensen)',
                          Accept => 'text/json'):

DESCRIPTION
       The LWP::Protocol::ldap module provides support for using ldap schemed URLs following RFC 4516 with
       LWP.  This module is a plug-in to the LWP protocol handling, so you don't use it directly.

       In addition to being used with LDAP URIs, LWP::Protocol::ldap also acts as the base class for its
       sibling modules LWP::Protocol::ldaps and LWP::Protocol::ldapi.

   Features
       HTTP methods supported

       LWP::Protocol::ldap implements the HTTP GET and HEAD methods.  They are mapped to the LDAP search
       operation,

       Response format

       Depending on the HTTP Accept header provided by the user agent, LWP::Protocol::ldap can answer the
       requests in one of the following formats:

       DSML
           When the HTTP Accept header contains the "text/dsml" MIME type, the response is sent as DSMLv1.

       JSON
           When the HTTP Accept header contains the "text/json" MIME type, the response is sent as JSON.
           For this to work the JSON Perl module needs to be installed.

       LDIF
           When the HTTP Accept header contains the "text/ldif" MIME type, the response is sent in LDIFv1
           format.

       HTML
           In case no HTTP Accept header has been sent or none of the above MIME types can be detected, and
           the x-format extension has not been provided either, the response is sent using HTML markup in a
           2-column table format (roughly modeled on LDIF).

       As an alternative to sending an HTTP Accept header, LWP::Protocol::ldap also accepts the "x-format"
       extension

       Example:

        ldap://ldap.example.com/o=University%20of%20Michigan,c=US??sub?(cn=Babs%20Jensen)?x-format=dsml

       TLS support

       For ldap and ldapi URIs, the module implements the "x-tls" extension that switches the LDAP
       connection to TLS using a call of the start_tls method.

       Example:

        ldap://ldap.example.com/o=University%20of%20Michigan,c=US??sub?(cn=Babs%20Jensen)?x-tls=1

       Note: In the above example, ideally giving "x-tls" should be sufficient, but unfortunately the parser
       in URI::ldap has a little flaw.

       Authorization

       Usually the connection is done anonymously, but if the HTTP Authorization header is provided with
       credentials for HTTP Basic authorization, the credentials given in that header will be used to do a
       simple bind to the LDAP server.
