Hi,
is it possible to use ldap to authenticate and dbic (a database)
to handle the
user role relation ? So that it works like it resides all in one
storage
backend.
If yes how do I configure that in the $application.conf ?
LDAP credential.
DBIx::Class store.
See authentication docs for how to configure each.
Unfortunately, there is no such thing as an LDAP credential module on
CPAN at the moment.
However, as noted elsewhere in this thread, coming up with one
wouldn't be that hard.
Splitting the current LDAP code so that it could be either a store
and/or credential also wouldn't be hard, and I volunteer to help with
the effort.
I'm personally fine with the LDAP store, but I've thrown a couple of
patches in that direction to add stuff I need, so doing a bit more
hacking on it wouldn't push the boat out. I haven't had any response
to these yet however, so if anyone reading could poke the Store::LDAP
maintainer and get them to join the thread (and respond to my
patches!), that'd be awesome...
Cheers
