Description : Light LDAP implementation for authentication
This project is a lightweight authentication server that provides an
opinionated, simplified LDAP interface for authentication. It integrates
with many backends, from KeyCloak to Authelia to Nextcloud and more!
It comes with a frontend that makes user management easy, and allows
users to edit their own details or reset their password by email.
The goal is not to provide a full LDAP server; if you're interested in
that, check out OpenLDAP. This server is a user management system that is:
- simple to setup (no messing around with slapd),
- simple to manage (friendly web UI),
- low resources,
- opinionated with basic defaults so you don't have to understand the
subtleties of LDAP.
It mostly targets self-hosting servers, with open-source components
like Nextcloud, Airsonic and so on that only support LDAP as a source
of external authentication.
For more features (OAuth/OpenID support, reverse proxy, ...) you can
install other components (KeyCloak, Authelia, ...) using this server as
the source of truth for users, via LDAP.
By default, the data is stored in SQLite, but you can swap the backend
with MySQL/MariaDB or PostgreSQL.
This should probably be maintained within the Debian Rust Packaging team.
