Usage

Login/pass:

import mozlibldap

l = mozlibldap.MozLDAP(LDAP_URL, LDAP_BIND_DN, LDAP_BIND_PASSWD)
print(l.get_user_posix_uid("gdestuynder@mozilla.com"))

With client certificate (the certificate DN needs to match your LDAP DN). The client cert, key file and optional ca cert (last argument) are all PEM files.

import mozlibldap

l = mozlibldap.MozLDAP(LDAP_URL, LDAP_BIND_DN, None, LDAP_BIND_CLIENTCERT, LDAP_BIND_KEYFILE)
# If using a self-signed CA in a specific location, like Mozilla CA
#l = mozlibldap.MozLDAP(LDAP_URL, LDAP_BIND_DN, None, LDAP_BIND_CLIENTCERT, LDAP_BIND_KEYFILE,
#                       "/etc/ssl/mozca.pem")
print(l.get_user_posix_uid("gdestuynder@mozilla.com"))
