Terraform LDAP provider

THIS REPOSITORY IS ARCHIVED

We're sorry, but we will discontinue this provider. If you'd like to take it further and support it, we're open to adoptions. Thanks!

Terraform provider to manage and read entries in an LDAP directory.

Inspired by elastic-infra/ldap, but updated to Terraform Framework and including ignoring attributes and a data source.

Using the provider

Add the following Terraform code to start using the provider:

terraform {
  required_providers {
    ldap = {
      source  = "dodevops/ldap"
      version = "~> 1.0"
    }
  }
}

provider "ldap" {
  ldap_url      = "ldap://localhost:389"
  bind_user     = "cn=admin,dc=example,dc=com"
  bind_password = "admin"
}

Developing the Provider

If you wish to work on the provider, you'll first need Go installed on your machine (see Requirements above).

To compile the provider, run go install. This will build the provider and put the provider binary in the $GOPATH/bin directory.

To generate or update documentation, run go generate.

In order to run the full suite of Acceptance tests, first make sure to have a running LDAP server. We've included a docker-compose file to quickly start a matching test server.

cd contrib/test-ldap-server
docker-compose up -d

Then you can set the following environment variables:

• LDAP_NONTLS_URL: The non-TLS enabled URL to the LDAP server
• LDAP_BIND_DN: The bind DN to access the LDAP server
• LDAP_BIND_PASSWORD: The bind password to access the LDAP server
• LDAP_TLS_URL: The TLS enabled URL to access the LDAP server

The URL variables are used to test the non-tls, TLS and STARTTLS features of the provider.

If you use the provided test server, the variables are already set for you.

Afterwards run make testacc.
