See the L section for more details on how to set it up. This module was designed with Active Directory in mind and has not yet been tested using other LDAP servers. Patches are welcome that enable support for other servers. Note that this plugin requires a session plugin like C. =head1 CONFIGURATION This plugin is configured by passing an "authentication" hash reference to your application's config method. The following keys are supported: ldap_server Required. Specify the full URI to your LDAP server. Some examples are: ldap://ldap.mycompany.com, ldap://pdc:1234, ldaps://secure.ldap.mycompany.com default_naming_context => 'dc=mycompany,dc=com' Required. This is the base context for your server. In most cases, this is a string of two or more "dc" values separated by commas. user_context => 'cn=users', Optional. The context to be used when querying a user's details. This value is prefixed to the default_naming_context. The default value should be suitable for Active Directory servers. If you do not intend to use role-based authentication, you can ignore this option. user_append = '@mycompany.com' Optional. This string will be appended to a user's login name when authenticating to the server. Active Directory servers require the user to be specified as "username@mycompany.com". user_filter => '(&(objectclass=user)(objectcategory=user)(samaccountname=__USER__*))' Optional. This filter is used to retrieve the user's account details, specifically the list of groups the user is a member of. For Active Directory servers, the default value should be suitable. The string __USER__ is replaced by the current username. If you do not intend to use role-based authentication, you can ignore this option. group_attribute => 'memberOf' Optional. Specify which attribute contains the list of groups/roles the user is a member of. =head2 METHODS =over 4 =item login Attempt to authenticate a user. Takes username/password as arguments, $c->login( $user, $password ); User remains authenticated until end of request. =cut sub login { my ( $c, $user, $password ) = @_; return 1 if $c->request->{user}; my $ldap_server = $c->config->{authentication}->{ldap_server}; my $dnc = $c->config->{authentication}->{default_naming_context}; my $user_append = $c->config->{authentication}->{user_append} || ''; my $user_context = $c->config->{authentication}->{user_context} || 'cn=users'; my $user_filter = $c->config->{authentication}->{user_filter} || '(&(objectclass=user)(objectcategory=user)(samaccountname=__USER__*))'; my $group_attribute = $c->config->{authentication}->{group_attribute} || 'memberOf'; eval { my $ldap = Net::LDAP->new( $ldap_server ) or die "Unable to connect to LDAP server $ldap_server: $@"; my $rc = $ldap->bind( $user . $user_append, password => $password ); die "User authentication failed for $user: " . $rc->error if $rc->code; # since most LDAP servers require a password on every connection, we have to query # the user's groups/roles here and store them in the session, since we won't have the # password available later $user_filter =~ s/__USER__/$user/; my $search = $ldap->search( base => $user_context .

The user will remain logged in until he clears the session himself, or session_logout is called. $c->session_login( $user, $password ); =cut sub session_login { my ( $c, $user, $password ) = @_; return 0 unless $c->login( $user, $password ); $c->session->{user} = $user; return 1; } =item session_logout Session logout. will delete the user object from the session. =cut sub session_logout { my $c = shift; $c->logout; $c->session->{user} = undef; $c->session->{roles} = undef; } =back =head2 EXTENDED METHODS =over 4 =item prepare_action sets $c->request->{user} from session. =cut sub prepare_action { my $c = shift; $c->NEXT::prepare_action(@_); $c->request->{user} = $c->session->{user}; } =item setup sets up $c->config->{authentication}. =cut sub setup { my $c = shift; my $conf = $c->config->{authentication}; $conf = ref $conf eq 'ARRAY' ? {@$conf} : $conf; $c->config->{authentication} = $conf; return $c->NEXT::setup(@_); } =back =head2 OVERLOADED METHODS =over 4 =item process_roles Takes an arrayref of roles and checks if user has the supplied roles. Returns 1/0. =cut sub process_roles { my ( $c, $roles ) = @_; return 0 unless exists $c->{session}->{roles}; for my $role (@$roles) { return 1 if grep $_ =~ /$role/i, @{ $c->{session}->{roles} }; } return 0; } =back =head1 LIMITATIONS Because many LDAP servers require a password to query information, the user's group/role data must be queried and stored at the time they login. This means that group/role data updated on the LDAP server after a user logs in will not be reflected in their session until they logout and log back in. =head1 SEE ALSO L, L. =head1 AUTHOR Andy Grundman, C Based on Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication::CDBI by: Sebastian Riedel, C Marcus Ramberg, C =head1 COPYRIGHT This program is free software, you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the same terms as Perl itself. =cut 1;
