WALDAP - LDAP for WebApps

WALDAP - LDAP for WebApps aims to provide simply manageable LDAP solution. It has LDAP server and WebConsole. It can start easily.

Current version(0.9.0) is pre-release version. It may involve non-compatible changes.

Features

• Web console by Servlet.
  • It can be started by standalone or Servlet container such as Jetty, Tomcat and others.
• Builtin LDAP server
  • WALDAP provides LDAP server which starts on Servlet startup. No extra startup script required expect Web UI.
• Manage Users and WebApps.
  • It can add/delete/edit Users, change password by Admin or oneself.
  • Administrator can add WebApp's instance.

Limitations

• WALDAP can't setup as flexible as OpenLDAP.
  • ex. photo/secretary/roomNumber/and many other field for User's attribute CAN'T USE IN WALDAP
• WALDAP can't provide authentication for Windows/Linux/Mac login.
  • PosixAccount requires uidNumber fields. It is complicated feature. I believe it can be discarded in WebApp authentication.
• WALDAP can't provide SSO.
  • It is too complicated. I want just login to WebApp such as Jenkins, GitBucket etc.

Run

• sbt: sbt jetty:start and go to http://localhost:10080/.
• executable war: java -jar waldap.war. waldap.war can download from releases page.
• Servlet container: deploy waldap.war to webapps directory.

These instructions also starts LDAP server which listen on 127.0.0.1:10389(default).

first login

To login as administrator, use username:admin and password:secret. Please change it after first login.

typically instruction

Add user

Edit user/Delete user/Change password

Press buttons in List of Users page.

Add WebApps

Click Add Instance and fill url and "InstanceSuffix". InstanceSuffix is used for identify multiple instance of same WebApp.

Data backup

I'm finding better backup techniques. Currently if you want to backup data, simply backup $HOME/.waldap directory with stopping server.

LDAP data

save LDIFs to $HOME/.waldap/server/partitions. If you want to connect LDAP manually, you can use uid=admin,ou=system and your modified Administrator's password.

Database data

By default, WALDAP uses H2 Database engine. External Database(PostgreSQL/MySQL) support are implemented but not tested.
