Sympa::DataSource::LDAP2(3Sympa)
π NAME π
Sympa::DataSource::LDAP2 β the data source that pulls subscribers out of an LDAP directory using a two-level search, and yes bestie, two levels is the whole personality here π¦
This page lives in section 3Sympa of the sympa manual, version 6.2.80, and it is so ready to be your new fave π«Ά
β¨ DESCRIPTION β¨
Okay so picture this π β this module returns a list of subscribers, right? But not the "hey I typed your email in myself" kind. These subscribers are extracted indirectly from a remote LDAP Directory, and the way it does that is with a two-level query.
Indirectly. Two-level. That's the vibe. It's not asking the directory once and calling it a day, no ma'am β it asks, then it asks again based on what it learned, and that's how the subscriber list materialises π₯
ngl the whole "two-level search operations" thing is load-bearing β don't go in expecting a single flat lookup, because that is literally not what this is πΈ
π SEE ALSO π
Sympa::DataSourceβ the parent-ish energy, the blueprint, the main character off-screen that this one is a flavour of π
