Page Created : CAMEL : LDAP

LDAP has been created by Hadrian Zbarcea (Aug 26, 2008).

Content:

LDAP Component

The ldap: component allows you to perform searches in LDAP servers using filters as the message payload.
This component uses standard JNDI (javax.naming) to access the server.

URI format

ldap:ldapServerUrl?options

This component only supports producer, meaning that you can not use routes with this component in the from type.

Options

Name	Default Value	Description
base		The base DN for searches
scope	subtree	Search the whole subtree. Value must be one of: "object", "onelevel" or "subtree"

Result

The result is returned in the out body as a ArrayList<javax.naming.directory.SearchResult> list object with the result.

Samples

In the sample below we fetches the rows from the customer table.

First we register our datasource in the Camel registry as testdb:

An error occurred: http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/activemq/camel/trunk/components/camel-ldap/src/test/java/org/apache/camel/component/ldap/LdapRouteTest.java. The system administrator has been notified.

Then we configure a route that routes to the JDBC component so the SQL will be executed, notice that we refer to the testdb datasource that was bound in the previous step:

And then we create the endpoint and sends the exchange containing the SQL query to execute in the in body. The result is returned in the out body.

Sample - Polling the server every minute

If we want to poll an LDAP server using this component we need to combine this with a polling scheduler such as the Timer or Quartz etc.
In this sample we retrieve data every 60th seconds.

from("timer://foo?period=60000").setBody(constant("(o=apache)")).to("ldap:localhost:1024").to("activemq:queue:committers");
