Integrate LDAP

[gsf]

So hey we got some LDAP working with a node.js library:

var ldap = require('ldapjs'); 
var client = ldap.createClient({ 
  url: 'ldaps://ldap.mariposa.coop/' 
}); 

var opts = { 
  scope: 'sub' 
}; 

// Only need to bind for setting and deleting 
//client.bind('cn=admin,dc=ldap,dc=mariposa,dc=coop', 'password', function (err) { 
//  if (err) throw err; 

client.search('ou=people,dc=ldap,dc=mariposa,dc=coop', opts, function(err, res) { 
  if (err) throw err; 

  res.on('searchEntry', function(entry) { 
    console.log('entry: ' + JSON.stringify(entry.object)); 
  }); 
  res.on('searchReference', function(referral) { 
    console.log('referral: ' + referral.uris.join()); 
  }); 
  res.on('error', function(err) { 
    console.error('error: ' + err.message); 
  }); 
  res.on('end', function(result) { 
    console.log('status: ' + result.status); 
    process.exit(); 
  }); 
}); 

//});

Here is some documentation I found on the "scope" option:

http://www.idevelopment.info/data/LDAP/LDAP_Resources/SEARCH_Setting_the_SCOPE_Parameter.shtml

Looks like we actually could also set it to "one" -- which would show all items immediately one node beneath the search object ( with the search object being "ou=people,dc=ldap,dc=example,dc=com").

We no longer need db.js, or the autheremin dependency.

We should add a file, ldap.js with a dependency on ldapjs.

note these dependencies are in server.js and routes/validate.js. do we need them in server.js?

[gsf]

In integrating LDAP into auther we'll also have to rethink the tests. Can we stub this out in some way or should we run a fake LDAP server?

[gsf]

We don't need the autheremin reference in server.js (I've removed it). We won't need that "db.on('load')" business either.
