ldapjs-memory-server

Based on ldapjs in-memory server (http://ldapjs.org/examples.html). I created this server to test a LDAP implementation I made elsewhere.

I thought it could be useful for anyone who needs it.

The database is a simple db.json that you can edit for your own purposes.

Build from source

npm run build

Run

npm start

The following environment variables can be optionally set:

# Defaults __dirname/db.json
LDAP_DB_JSON
# Defaults to the DN defined in the database, otherwise dc=example, dc=com
LDAP_BASEDN
# Defaults to 1389
LDAP_PORT

To run with environment variables:

LDAP_PORT=1389 LDAP_DB_JSON=~/mydb.json npm start

Dockerfile

A dockerfile is also provided in case you want to build a docker image and run your own container.

To build it, just run:

npm run docker:build

Then to create and run:

npm run docker:run

Using ldapsearch

You can use ldapsearch to test the server:

ldapsearch -x -H ldap://localhost:1389 -b "dc=example,dc=com" -s base -D 'cn=John Doe, dc=example, dc=com' -w demo
