Conan LDAP Authentication

A LDAP authentication plugin for Conan.io

Features

  • Authenticate to Conan server, through your LDAP server
  • Customize host address, port and DN

Installation

$ pip install conan_ldap_authentication

Or you can clone this repository and store its location in PYTHONPATH.

The plugin uses HOME directory as reference to be installed.
Keep in mind if you are running as root or admin when install the plugin.
If you are root, the file is available there /root/.conan_server
The motivation is because Conan server could be executed by any user on your system.
Each user have it own .conan_server directory.

Configuration

To configure the LDAP authentication in Conan, you need follow two steps:

  1. Add custom authenticator in ~/.conan_server/server.conf
[server]
jwt_secret: ****
jwt_expire_minutes: 120

ssl_enabled: False
port: 9300
public_port:
host_name: localhost

# Check docs.conan.io to implement a different authenticator plugin for conan_server
# if custom_authenticator is not specified, [users] section will be used to authenticate
# the users.
#
custom_authenticator: ldap_authentication

[write_permissions]
# "opencv/2.3.4@lasote/testing": default_user,default_user2

[read_permissions]
# opencv/1.2.3@lasote/testing: default_user default_user2
# By default all users can read all blocks
*/*@*/*: *

[users]

  1. Configure you LDAP server information in ~/.conan_server/ldap_authentication.conf
[ldap]
# LDAP server address
host: ldap://ldap.company.org
# Distinguished name (DN) of the entry
distinguished_name: cn=$username,ou=Users,dc=company,dc=org

You could customize ldap_authentication.conf path, by CONAN_LDAP_AUTHENTICATION_CONFIG_FILE

$ export CONAN_LDAP_AUTHENTICATION_CONFIG_FILE=/etc/conan/cofig/ldap_authentication.conf

To obtain more information, how to use a custom authentication in Conan.io, read the Authentication section

Just call conan authentication, as before

$ conan user -p my_ldap_password my_ldap_username

Conan will use your username and password to authenticate to registered LDAP server.

$ nosetests -v --with-coverage --cover-package=conan .
