dsadmin

dsadmin python module for 389 directory server administration

Test with:

cd /path/to/module

export PYTHONPATH+=:$PWD:

nosetests -w tests

sudo PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH nosetests -w tests/

Debian/Ubuntu users may need to align their setup to the redhat one to run all tests (or edit test configuration)

for file in setup-ds setup-ds-admin remove-ds; do sudo ln -s /usr/sbin/${file}{,.pl}; done

structure

dsadmin/
|-- _entry.py 		- the Entry class 
|-- __init__.py	- core module, involving only ldap commands
|-- tools.py		- methods involving stuff outside ldap (eg. copy, start/stop, ...)
|-- utils.py		- static methods for mangling strings, formatting text and so on

brookers

With this structure, the DSAdmin functions will be available under various small specific classes, like brooks flow to a river ;) All the replication/changelog/agreement stuff have been moved into dsadmin.brooker.Replica. Ex.

conn = DSAdmin(**auth)

  • conn.setupChangelog() -> conn.replica.changelog()
  • conn.findAgreementDNs() -> conn.replica.agreements(dn=True)
  • conn.getReplStatus() -> conn.replica.status()

Quickstart

  • Define your credentials (by default host='localhost', port=389)

auth = {'binddn': 'cn=directory manager','bindpw':'password'} ds = DSAdmin(**auth)

Config

  • set error-loglevel

ds.config.loglevel( vals = [LOG_ENTRY_PARSER,LOG_REPLICA])

  • set access-loglevel

ds.config.loglevel( vals = [LOG_DEFAULT], level='access')

  • get config from "cn=config"

ds.config.get('passwordMaxAge')

  • set config

ds.config.set('passwordGraceLimit', '3')

Backends

  • List backends

backends = ds.backend.list()

  • Get first backend DN

backends[0].dn

  • Add a new LDBM backend and setup its suffix

e = ds.backend.add(suffix="o=addressbook1", benamebase="AB1", setup_mt=True)

  • Set a db in readonly

ds.backend.readonly("AB1")

  • Set a db in read-write

ds.backend.readonly("AB1", readonly="off")

Replica

  • Get replica entries or agreements dn replica_e = ds.replica.list() agreement_dn = ds.replica.agreements() ruv = ds.replica.ruv(suffix="o=addressbook1")

  • Enable changelog ds.replica.changelog()
