Simple LDAP

The simple-laravel-ldap PHP package is a convenience wrapper around the base PHP LDAP functions. It provides helpers for the common LDAP use cases.

Examples

The package provides an \Ldap:: laravel facade:

if (\Ldap::authenticate('username', 'password')) {
  // whatever
}

$user = \Ldap::findUser('jenny123');
dump($user);
/*
Ohffs\Ldap\LdapUser {#739
  #username: "jenny123"
  #email: "[e-mail]"
  #surname: "Smith"
  #forenames: "Jenny"
  #phone: "012345678"
}
*/
print $user['email'];
// '[e-mail]'
print $user->email;
// '[e-mail]'
print $user->toArray();
/*
[
     "username" => "jenny123",
     "email" => "[e-mail]",
     "surname" => "Smith",
     "forenames" => "Jenny",
     "phone" => "012345678",
]
*/

Or you can use the service via DI:

use Ohffs\Ldap\LdapService;

public function __construct(LdapService $ldap)
{
    $this->ldap = $ldap;
}

public function something()
{
   if ($this->ldap->authenticate('username', 'password')) {
       // ...
   }
}

Some other methods are available:

$user = \Ldap::findUserByEmail('[e-mail]');
$users = \Ldap::searchForUsers('jenny');
