forked from GNUsocial/gnu-social
lib/plugin.php now has a parent onAutoload function that finds most common
files that are used in plugins (actions, dataobjects, forms, libs etc.) if
they are put in the standardised directories ('actions', 'classes', 'forms',
'lib' and perhaps some others in the future).
The LDAP Authorization plugin allows for StatusNet to handle authorization
through LDAP.
Installation
============
add "addPlugin('ldapAuthorization',
array('setting'=>'value', 'setting2'=>'value2', ...);"
to the bottom of your config.php
You *cannot* use this plugin without the LDAP Authentication plugin
Settings
========
provider_name*: This is a identifier designated to the connection.
It's how StatusNet will refer to the authentication source.
For the most part, any name can be used, so long as each authentication
source has a different identifier. In most cases there will be only one
authentication source used.
authoritative (false): should this plugin be authoritative for
authorization?
uniqueMember_attribute ('uniqueMember')*: the attribute of a group
that lists the DNs of its members
roles_to_groups: array that maps StatusNet roles to LDAP groups
some StatusNet roles are: moderator, administrator, sandboxed, silenced
login_group: if this is set to a group DN, only members of that group will be
allowed to login
The below settings must be exact copies of the settings used for the
corresponding LDAP Authentication plugin.
host*: LDAP server name to connect to. You can provide several hosts in an
array in which case the hosts are tried from left to right.
