Net::LDAP::LDIF(3)                   User Contributed Perl Documentation                  Net::LDAP::LDIF(3)



NAME
       Net::LDAP::LDIF - LDIF reading and writing

SYNOPSIS
        use Net::LDAP::LDIF;

        $ldif = Net::LDAP::LDIF->new( "file.ldif", "r", onerror => 'undef' );
        while( not $ldif->eof ( ) ) {
          $entry = $ldif->read_entry ( );
          if ( $ldif->error ( ) ) {
            print "Error msg: ", $ldif->error ( ), "\n";
            print "Error lines:\n", $ldif->error_lines ( ), "\n";
          } else {
            # do stuff
          }
        }
        $ldif->done ( );

DESCRIPTION
       Net::LDAP::LDIF provides a means to convert between Net::LDAP::Entry objects and LDAP entries
       represented in LDIF format files. Reading and writing are supported and may manipulate single entries
       or lists of entries.

       As when reading an entire file into memory with perl normally, take into account the possibility of
       memory use when loading an LDIF file in one go.

CONSTRUCTOR
       new ( FILE )
           Open the file read-only. "FILE" may be the name of a file or an already open filehandle. If
           "FILE" begins or ends with a "|" then "FILE" will be passed directly to "open".

       new ( FILE, MODE, OPTIONS )
           Open the file with the given "MODE", eg "w" or "a". "FILE" may be the name of a file or an
           already open filehandle. If "FILE" begins or ends with a "|" then "FILE" will be passed directly
           to "open".

           encode => 'none' | 'canonical' | 'base64'
               Some DN values in LDIF cannot be written verbatim and have to be encoded in some way:

               'none'
                   The default.

               'canonical'
                   See "canonical_dn" in Net::LDAP::Util.

               'base64'
                   Use base64.

           onerror => 'die' | 'warn' | undef
               Specify what happens when an error is detected.

               'die'
                   "Net::LDAP::LDIF" will croak with an appropriate message.

               'warn'
                   "Net::LDAP::LDIF" will warn with an appropriate message.

               undef
                   "Net::LDAP::LDIF" will warn with an appropriate message if "-w" is in effect.  The method
                   that was called will return "undef".

           change => 1
               Write entry changes to the LDIF file instead of the entries itself.  I.e. write LDAP
               operations acting on the entries to the file instead of the entries contents.

           lowercase => 1
               Convert attribute names to lowercase when writing.

           sort => 1
               Sort attribute names when writing entries according to the rule: objectclass first then all
               other attributes alphabetically sorted

           version => '1'
               Set the LDIF version to write to the resulting LDIF file.

               According to RFC 2849 currently the only legal value for this option is 1.

               When this option is set Net::LDAP::LDIF tries to adhere more strictly to the LDIF
               specification in RFC2489 in a few places.

               The default is undef meaning no version information is written to the LDIF file.

           wrap => 78
               Number of columns where output line wrapping shall occur.

               Default is 78. Setting it to 40 or lower inhibits wrapping.

           raw => REGEX
               Use REGEX to denote the names of attributes that are to be considered binary in search
               results.

               When running on Perl 5.8 and this option is given Net::LDAP converts all values of attributes
               not matching this REGEX into Perl UTF-8 strings so that the regular Perl operators (pattern
               matching, ...) can operate as one expects even on strings with international characters.

               If this option is not given or the version of Perl Net::LDAP is running on is too old strings
               are encodeed the same as in earlier versions of perl-ldap.

               Example: raw => qr/(?i:^jpegPhoto|;binary)/

METHODS
       read_entry ( )
           Read one entry from the file and return it as a "Net::LDAP::Entry" object.

       eof ( )
           Returns true when the end of the file is reached.

       write_entry ( ENTRIES )
           Write the entries to the LDIF file.

       write_version ( )
           If the object's version is defined, this method allows to explicitely write the version before an
           entry is written.

           If  not called explicitely, it gets called automatically when writing the first entry.

       version ( [ VERSION ] )
           If called without arguments it returns the version of the LDIF file or undef if no version has
           been set.  If called with an argument it sets the LDIF version to VERSION.

           According to RFC 2849 currently the only legal value for VERSION is 1.

       handle ( )
           Returns the file handle the "Net::LDAP::LDIF" object reads from or writes to.

       done ( )
           This method signals that the LDIF object is no longer needed. If a file was opened automatically
           when the object was created it will be closed. This method is called automatically via DESTROY
           when the object goes out of scope.

       error ( )
           Returns error message if error was found.

       error_lines ( )
           Returns lines that resulted in error.

       current_entry ( )
           Returns the current "Net::LDAP::Entry" object.

       current_lines ( )
           Returns the lines that generated the current "Net::LDAP::Entry" object.

       next_lines ( )
           Returns the lines that will generate the next "Net::LDAP::Entry" object.
