LDAP support

[josecardozo]

Once the Travelogue project was discontinued, it would be good to see the LDAP support in Bell.

+1, also need this.

[thegoleffect]

to add this, it would require supporting custom/extensible protocols other than oauth1 & 2. Can we get that added in as a first step?

If someone provides the LDAP code, I'll integrate it into the module. I'll take a gist or module with api.

https://gist.github.com/thegoleffect/311b9b41e7b769b8f252 is a basic example, it requires the full dn though as the "username".

[thegoleffect]

for a realistic example, you'd need to have an admin user/pass passed in via config. Bind on that, then search by username (need to pass search filter/query in via config also) to get the correct full 'dn' for user. Then bind again with user dn + password.

How does passport do it?

Something like this?

[hueniverse]

Same to assume this is not going to happen.
