And to be fair, ldap is a contrib module, and there is quite a bit of
documentation in the module itself. For example:
If you need group control from ldap to web2py app's database feel free
to set:
auth.settings.login_methods.append(ldap_auth(...as usual...,
manage_groups=True,
db=db,
group_dn='ou=Groups,dc=domain,dc=com',
group_name_attrib='cn',
group_member_attrib='memberUid',
group_filterstr='objectClass=*'
))
Where:
manage_group - let web2py handle the groups from ldap
db - is the database object (need to have auth_user, auth_group,
auth_membership)
group_dn - the ldap branch of the groups
group_name_attrib - the attribute where the group name is stored
group_member_attrib - the attribute containing the group members
name
group_filterstr - as the filterstr but for group select
In fact, the book even explicitly directs the reader to the documentation
within the module:
*See the documentation of ldap_auth in
web2py/gluon/contrib/login_methods/ldap_auth.py*
