# [LDAP Explorer](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=fengtan.ldap-explorer)

[![Build](https://github.com/fengtan/ldap-explorer/actions/workflows/build.yml/badge.svg)](https://github.com/fengtan/ldap-explorer/actions/workflows/build.yml)

[LDAP](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lightweight_Directory_Access_Protocol) client for [VS Code](https://code.visualstudio.com/).

![Overview](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/fengtan/ldap-explorer/master/screenshots/overview.png)

## Features

* **Browse the tree** - Explore how the [DIT](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Directory_information_tree) is structured and discover LDAP entries in an intuitive interface
* **List attributes** - Find out about LDAP attributes without writing search filters
* **Search and filter** - Conveniently search for LDAP entries directly from VS Code
* **Export LDAP entries as CSV** - Share and analyze LDAP results using a standard CSV format
* **Manage bookmarks** - Bookmark LDAP entries you often need to check or located in awkward places
* **Support for multiple connections** - Manage multiple LDAP connections, such as a test and a production connections
* **Support for environment variables** - Easy integration with containers
* **Secure credentials** - Bind passwords may be stored encrypted in secret storage, or not stored at all and requested at connection time

## Demo

See [this animation](screenshots/anim.gif) for a demo.

## Installation

* Open VS Code
* Open the [extension view](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/extension-marketplace) by hitting `Ctrl+Shift+X` (or `Cmd+Shift+X`) and install [LDAP Explorer](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=fengtan.ldap-explorer)
* Alternatively, hit `Ctrl+P` (or `Cmd+P`) and type `ext install fengtan.ldap-explorer`

## Usage

### Connecting to an LDAP server

1. Open the **LDAP Explorer** view from the [activity bar](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/getstarted/userinterface)
2. Under panel **Connections**, click the button **Add new connection**
3. Fill in the connection settings (leave **Bind DN** and **Bind Password** empty to bind as anonymous)
4. Under panel **Connections**, click on the connection to activate it
5. Now you may browse the tree, manage bookmarks and run search queries from the **Tree**, **Bookmarks** and **Search** panels, respectively

### TLS

A fieldset **TLS options** shows up if:
- The connection's protocol is set to **ldaps** ; or
- The connection's protocol is set to **ldap** and the checkbox **StartTLS** is checked

If your server's certificate is self-signed then you may want to list your root Certificate Authority in the view **Trusted CA Certificates**.

If your server is multi-homed then you may want to set the connection's **Server Name Indication (SNI)** field to the host being connected to (it should be a host name, not an IP address). Leave this field empty if the certificate matches the host name. The [opensslutils](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ffaraone.opensslutils) extension comes with a handy command to inspect the contents of a certificate, for instance if you need to confirm that the certificate's Common Name (CN) matches the host name.

As a last resort uncheck **Verify certificate** to skip any certificate verification (not recommended).

### CSV export

When listing LDAP entries, a button labeled **Export CSV** is provided at the bottom of the page and allows to export the contents as CSV:

* **LDAP Explorer: Set no active Connection** - Clears currently active connection, if any
* **LDAP Explorer: Refresh** - Refreshes the Trusted CA Certificates, Connections, Tree and Bookmarks views
* **LDAP Explorer: Show Attributes** - Lists attributes of a given LDAP entry

## Configuration

This extension contributes the following settings:

* **ldap-explorer.binary-attributes** (`["caCertificate", "jpegPhoto", "krbExtraData", "msExchArchiveGUID", "msExchBlockedSendersHash", "msExchMailboxGuid", "msExchSafeSendersHash", "networkAddress", "objectGUID", "objectSid", "userCertificate", "userSMIMECertificate"]`)

Name of binary attributes (case insentitive). They will be represented as Base64 strings.

* **ldap-explorer.binary-decode** (`true`)

If `true` then the `objectGUID` and `objectSid` binary attributes will be decoded and represented as text values regardless of whether they are listed in `ldap-explorer.binary-attributes`.

- `objectGUID` will be represented as UUID text.
  - `objectSid` will be represented as Microsoft Active Directory security identifier (SID) text.

* **ldap-explorer.cacerts** (`[]`)

List of trusted root certificates. Example:

```json
{
  "ldap-explorer.cacerts": [
    "/etc/ca-certificates/myRootCA.crt"
  ]
}
```

* **ldap-explorer.connections** (`[]`)

List of LDAP connections. Example:

```json
{
  "ldap-explorer.connections": [
    {
      "name": "ACME prod",
      "protocol": "ldap",
      "starttls": "false",
      "verifycert": "true",
      "sni": "",
      "host": "acme.example.net",
      "port": "389",
      "binddn": "cn=admin,dc=example,dc=org",
      "pwdmode": "settings",
      "bindpwd": "foobar", // Only applicable if "pwdmode" is "settings"
      "basedn": "dc=example,dc=org",
      "limit": "0",
      "paged": "true",
      "connectTimeout": "5000",
      "timeout": "5000",
      "bookmarks": [
        "cn=readers,ou=users,dc=example,dc=org"
      ]
    }
  ]
}
```

Supported values for `pwdmode`:
- `secret` will read the bind password from [secret storage](https://code.visualstudio.com/api/references/vscode-api#SecretStorage) (encrypted)
- `ask` will ask for the bind password at connection time
- `settings` will read the bind password as plaint text from [settings](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/settings) (connection attribute `bindpwd`)

* **ldap-explorer.show-tree-item-icons** (`false`)

If set to `true`, LDAP entries in the Tree view will be rendered with an icon based on their entity type:
- `dc`, `c`, `o` or `ou`: [organization icon](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/microsoft/vscode-codicons/main/src/icons/organization.svg)
- `cn`: [person icon](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/microsoft/vscode-codicons/main/src/icons/person.svg)
- otherwise: [primitive square icon](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/microsoft/vscode-codicons/main/src/icons/primitive-square.svg)

| `ldap-explorer.show-tree-item-icons: false` | `ldap-explorer.show-tree-item-icons: true` |
|---------------------------------------------|--------------------------------------------|
|![tree without icons](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/fengtan/ldap-explorer/master/screenshots/configuration.icons.false.png) | ![tree with icons](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/fengtan/ldap-explorer/master/screenshots/configuration.icons.true.png) |

* **ldap-explorer.sort-attributes** (`false`)

If set to `false`, LDAP attributes will be displayed in the order received from the LDAP server.

If set to `true`, they will be ordered alphabetically by name.
