gldap

Go Reference Go Coverage Go Report Card


gldap is a framework for building LDAP services. Among other things, it defines abstractions for:

  • Server: supports both LDAP and LDAPS (TLS) protocols as well as the StartTLS requests.
  • Request: represents an LDAP request (bind, search, extended, etc) along with the inbound request message.
  • ResponseWriter: allows you to compose request responses.
  • Mux: an ldap request multiplexer. It matches the inbound request against a list of registered route handlers.
  • HandlerFunc: handlers provided to the Mux which serve individual ldap requests.

Example:

package main

import (
	"context"
	"log"
	"os"
	"os/signal"
	"syscall"

	"github.com/jimlambrt/gldap"
)

func main() {
	// create a new server
	s, err := gldap.NewServer()
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatalf("unable to create server: %s", err.Error())
	}

	// create a router and add a bind handler
	r, err := gldap.NewMux()
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatalf("unable to create router: %s", err.Error())
	}
	r.Bind(bindHandler)
	r.Search(searchHandler)
	s.Router(r)
	go s.Run(":10389") // listen on port 10389

	// stop server gracefully when ctrl-c, sigint or sigterm occurs
	ctx, stop := signal.NotifyContext(context.Background(), os.Interrupt)
	defer stop()
	select {
	case <-ctx.Done():
		log.Printf("\nstopping directory")
		s.Stop()
	}
}

func bindHandler(w *gldap.ResponseWriter, r *gldap.Request) {
	resp := r.NewBindResponse(
		gldap.WithResponseCode(gldap.ResultInvalidCredentials),
	)
	defer func() {
		w.Write(resp)
	}()

	m, err := r.GetSimpleBindMessage()
	if err != nil {
		log.Printf("not a simple bind message: %s", err)
		return
	}

	if m.UserName == "alice" {
		resp.SetResultCode(gldap.ResultSuccess)
		log.Println("bind success")
		return
	}

func searchHandler(w *gldap.ResponseWriter, r *gldap.Request) {
	resp := r.NewSearchDoneResponse()
	defer func() {
		w.Write(resp)
	}()
	m, err := r.GetSearchMessage()
	if err != nil {
		log.Printf("not a search message: %s", err)
		return
	}
	log.Printf("search base dn: %s", m.BaseDN)
	log.Printf("search scope: %d", m.Scope)
	log.Printf("search filter: %s", m.Filter)

	if strings.Contains(m.Filter, "uid=alice") || m.BaseDN == "uid=alice,ou=people,cn=example,dc=org" {
		entry := r.NewSearchResponseEntry(
			"uid=alice,ou=people,cn=example,dc=org",
			gldap.WithAttributes(map[string][]string{
				"objectclass": {"top", "person", "organizationalPerson", "inetOrgPerson"},
				"uid":         {"alice"},
				"cn":          {"alice eve smith"},
				"givenname":   {"alice"},
				"sn":          {"smith"},
				"ou":          {"people"},
				"description": {"friend of Rivest, Shamir and Adleman"},
				"password":    {"{SSHA}U3waGJVC7MgXYc0YQe7xv7sSePuTP8zN"},
			}),
		)
		entry.AddAttribute("email", []string{"alice@example.org"})
		w.Write(entry)
		resp.SetResultCode(gldap.ResultSuccess)
	}
	if m.BaseDN == "ou=people,cn=example,dc=org" {
		entry := r.NewSearchResponseEntry(
			"ou=people,cn=example,dc=org",
			gldap.WithAttributes(map[string][]string{
				"objectclass": {"organizationalUnit"},
				"ou":          {"people"},
			}),
		)
		w.Write(entry)
		resp.SetResultCode(gldap.ResultSuccess)
	}
	return
}

Road map

Currently supported features:

  • ldap, ldaps and mTLS connections
  • StartTLS Requests
  • Bind Requests
    • Simple Auth (user/pass)
  • Search Requests
  • Modify Requests
  • Add Requests
  • Delete Requests
  • Unbind Requests

Future features

At this point, we may wait until issues are opened before planning new features given that all the basic LDAP operations are supported.


Go Reference

The testdirectory package built using gldap which provides an in-memory test LDAP service with capabilities which make writing tests that depend on an LDAP service much easier.

testdirectory is also a great working example of how you can use gldap to build a custom ldap server to meet your specific needs.

Example:

// this testdirectory example demonstrates how can start a test directory for 
// your unit tests which will automatically stop when the test is complete. 
func TestExample(t *testing.T) {

	// start a test directory running ldaps on an available free port (defaults)
	// that allows anon binds (a default override)
	td := testdirectory.Start(t,
		testdirectory.WithDefaults(&testdirectory.Defaults{AllowAnonymousBind: true}),
	)
	// create some test new user entries (using defaults for ou, password, etc)
	users := testdirectory.NewUsers(t, []string{"alice", "bob"})
	// set the test directories user entries
	td.SetUsers(users...)

	// INSERT your tests here....
}
