Flask LDAP3 Login allows you to easily integrate your flask app with an LDAP directory. It can be used as an extension to Flask-Login and can even be used with Flask-Principal for permission and privilege management.
Flask LDAP3 Login uses the ldap3 library, and maintains compatibility with those versions of Python supported by upstream.
- Flask LDAP3 Login Will:
- Allow you to query whether or not a user's credentials are correct
- Query the directory for users details
- Query the directory for group details
- Query the directory for users group memberships
- Provide a contextual
ldap_manager.connectionobject (ldap3.Connection) which can be used in any flask request context. Useful for writing your own more advanced queries.
- Flask LDAP3 Login Wont:
- Provide a login/logout mechanism. You need to provide this with something like flask-login
- Provide any extension to the application's session. User tracking and group tracking should be done via flask-login and flask-principal
