Good stuff! Here are some functions for processing ldap paths you may like. I hid them in a recent script release (but never actually used them, like a hidden little gift).
Function Get-TreeFromLDAPPath
{
# $Output = [System.Web.HttpUtility]::HtmlDecode(($a | ConvertTo-Html))
[CmdletBinding()]
Param
(
[Parameter(HelpMessage="LDAP path.")]
[string]
$LDAPPath,
[Parameter(HelpMessage="Determines the depth a tree node is indented")]
[int]
$IndentDepth=1,
[Parameter(HelpMessage="Optional character to use for each newly indented node.")]
[char]
$IndentChar = 3,
[Parameter(HelpMessage="Don't remove the ldap node type (ie. DC=)")]
[Switch]
$KeepNodeType
)
$regex = [regex]'(?^.+)\=(?.+$)'
$ldaparr = $LDAPPath -split ','
$ADPartCount = $ldaparr.count
$spacer = ''
$output = ''
for ($index = ($ADPartCount); $index -gt 0; $index--)
{
$node = $ldaparr[($index-1)]
if (-not $KeepNodeType)
{
if ($node -match $regex)
{
$node = $matches['LDAPName']
}
}
if ($index -eq ($ADPartCount))
{
$line = ''
}
else
{
$line = $IndentChar
$spacer = $spacer + (' ' * $IndentDepth)
# This fixes an offset issue
if ($index -lt ($ADPartCount - 1))
{
$spacer = $spacer + ' '
}
}
$line = $spacer + $line + $node + "`n"
$output = $Output+$line
}
[string]$output
}
Function Get-ObjectFromLDAPPath
{
[CmdletBinding()]
Param
(
[Parameter(HelpMessage="LDAP path.")]
[string]
$LDAPPath,
[Parameter(HelpMessage="Determines the depth a tree node is indented")]
[switch]
$TranslateNamingAttribute
)
$output = @()
$ldaparr = $LDAPPath -split ','
$regex = [regex]'(?^.+)\=(?.+$)'
$position = 0
$ldaparr | %{
if ($_ -match $regex)
{
if ($TranslateNamingAttribute)
{
switch ($matches['LDAPType'])
{
'CN' {$_ldaptype = "Common Name"}
'OU' {$_ldaptype = "Organizational Unit"}
'DC' {$_ldaptype = "Domain Component"}
default {$_ldaptype = $matches['LDAPType']}
}
}
else
{
$_ldaptype = $matches['LDAPType']
}
$objprop = @{
LDAPType = $_ldaptype
LDAPName = $matches['LDAPName']
Position = $position
}
$output += New-Object psobject -Property $objprop
$position++
}
}
Write-Output -InputObject $output
}
