RE: [Trac] LDAP plugin advice, user details

I use apache and mod_ldap to authenticate. Trac running over mod_python. Looking on trac-hacks there are a number of LDAP plugins, does anyone use any of them just to pull user data from LDAP (Active Directory) rather than authentication as well? Any advice appreciated. Simon I have the same issue. I would have thought this must be a fairly common scenario. However, I have not tried any of the LDAP plugins as none seemed suitable from what I could see. I was thinking of rolling a local python script to auto-replicate details between environments (although this could run into problems if people need to use e.g. different addresses for different tasks). I hope someone will have a good suggestion. ~ mark c P.S. As recently mentioned, recommend you replace the now dead mod_python with mod_wsgi if you can... -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Trac Users group.

Re: [Trac] LDAP plugin advice, user details
Looking on trac-hacks there are a number of LDAP plugins, does anyone use any of them just to pull user data from LDAP (Active Directory) rather than authentication as well? As far as I can tell, there is no API in Trac to retrieve details from anywhere but its own database. The IUserDirectory interface (or whatever its new name) has been discussed many times, but is yet to be implemented; meanwhile no Trac plugin may provide user data to the Trac core for now.

Are you just looking to pre-fill username and email from AD?

We still do use the LdapPlugin for authentication, but just to do group lookups as we have Apache handling the actual user login in front of Trac. I don't see any reason that the user population part shouldn't work independently of the actual login though.

[Trac] Re: Help with new trac 12 plugin upgrade
Thanks very much for your responses! If you're talking about the upgrade process only, then you have to realize that there's anyway no global transaction going on. For most backends (well, any except PostgreSQL), most of the changes happening during an upgrade like creating a new table, adding a column, etc. will do an implicit commit and can't be rollbacked. Seehttp://trac.edgewall.org/changeset/9568in particular. I run postgresql primarily. I'm curious why I kept getting aborted transactions errors though if this was not being transactioned. (Perhaps autocommit is off by default on postgres, and so the missing commit / close calls (that I just removed) are part of the problem). If as stated all the other backends tend to autocommit for most everything anyway, then I could see this behaviour (an error in a select causing subsequent upgrade statements to fail) being missed. The solution I came up with, but have not fully tested yet, was the use of savepoints which seems to support a standard syntax in all of the supported backends (NOT TESTED, but SQL99 standard). I also rewrote and reorganized my upgrade code to not use table existence checks in the couple places it was. Once I spent a day thinking and refactoring my upgrade process so that it was not relying on catching so many exceptions, I was no longer getting upgrade errors. Thus I think that overall I made my upgrade process more robust. Also if the main upgrade process is not in a transaction then my try/catched'ed postgres sequence updates shouldn't cause problems on other backends. (Though I still need to test more) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Savepoint http://www.sqlite.org/lang_savepoint.html http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/interactive/sql-savepoint.html http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/savepoint.html #Savepoint example: def db_table_exists(env, table): db = env.get_read_db() cur = db.cursor() has_table = True; try: # an exception can break a transaction if we are in one cur.execute(SAVEPOINT db_table_exists;) cur.execute(SELECT * FROM %s LIMIT 1 % table) except Exception, e: cur.execute(ROLLBACK TO SAVEPOINT db_table_exists;) has_table = False return has_table An example: updating the sequences in postgresql to contain the new correct value (after manually inserting rows with new ids). This is not necessary and invalid in sqllite but seemed necessary in Postgresql, so that there would not be duplicate ids. Bitten has this problem as well, IIRC. Would be nice to have a standard way to handle this, which is what http://trac.edgewall.org/ticket/8575 is about. There's an update_sequence function you could try, and if that works, this could be turned into a patch which would add corresponding dummy functions for the other backends... As to the patches I may look into that, but I have an awful lot else on my plate at the moment.

[Trac] Where does Trac store changesets?
I am currently trying to brose the changeset databases and so far I believe that the sqlite:db/trac.db only stores types of changes and paths to files without actually storing the changes while the svn repository itself seems to store all data in binary files (which I can't figure out how to access). Is there any interface which can be tweaked to return a source repository directory or a stream of the source files (besiders ITemplateStreamFilter, I need access to the whole repository)? I'm writing a plugin which needs to browse the repository in it's entirety and access previous revisions of the repository, like the Backlinks plugin for wiki pages but for the actual source and not wiki pages. Long story short, how can a plugin access the repository and analyze the text? thanks!
