Overview
LuaLDAP is a simple interface from Lua to an LDAP client, in fact it is a bind to OpenLDAP or to ADSI. It enables a Lua program to:
- Connect to an LDAP server;
- Execute any operation (search, add, compare, delete, modify and rename);
- Retrieve entries and references of the search result.
LuaLDAP is free software and uses the same license as Lua 5.1.
Status
Current version is 1.1. It was developed for both Lua 5.0 and Lua 5.1, and both OpenLDAP 2.1 or newer and ADSI.
Download
LuaLDAP can be downloaded in source code from the LuaForge page. If you are using LuaBinaries 5.0.2 Release 2 a Windows binary version of LuaLDAP can be found at the same LuaForge page.
