How to use
----------

[](#how-to-use)

### Create an LDAP instance

[](#create-an-ldap-instance)

First of all, you need an object that knows all the connection data and some options for the native LDAP extension. The options are not required.

```
use Rimelek\LDAPCLient\LDAP;

$ldap = new LDAP();
$ldap->setServer('ldap.domain.tld');
$ldap->setPort(389);  // optional. Default: 389

$ldap->setManagerDn('uid=' . $user->getUsername() . ',ou=people,dc=domain,dc=tld');
$ldap->setPassword($user->getPassword());

$ldap->setScope(LDAP::SCOPE_SUB); // for search (*_ONE | *_BASE | *_SUB)
$ldap->setBaseDn('ou=people,dc=domain,dc=tld'); // for search
```

### Create LDAP filter

[](#create-ldap-filter)

An LDAP filter string follows this syntax:

```
Simplest filter: (key=value)
Multiple filters:
   or: (key1=value1)|(key2>=value)
  and: (key1=value1)&(key2>=value2)
You can also negate it:
       (!((key1=value1)&(key2>=value2)))

```

When you need many filters it can be hard to write. Filters are objects here.

```
use Rimelek\LDAPClient\Filter;
use Rimelek\LDAPClient\OrFIlter;
use Rimelek\LDAPClient\AndFilter;
```

```
/*Simplest filter:*/ $filter = new Filter('key', 'value');
/*Multiple filters:*/
  /*or:*/

  $filter = new OrFilter([
      new Filter('key1', 'value1'),
      new Filter('key2', 'value2', Filter::OP_GREATER_THAN),
  ]);

  /*and:*/

  $filter = new AndFilter([
      new Filter('key1', 'value1'),
      new Filter('key2', 'value2', Filter::OP_GREATER_THAN),
  ]);

/* You can also negate it: */

  $filter = new AndFilter([
      new Filter('key1', 'value1'),
      new Filter('key2', 'value2', Filter::OP_GREATER_THAN),
  ], true);
```

Third argument of Filter is the operator. Here are all of them:

- Filter::OP\_EQUALITY (=)
- Filter::OP\_GREATER\_THAN (>=)
- Filter::OP\_LESS\_THAN (<=)
- Filter::OP\_PROXIMITY (~=)

### Search

[](#search)

```
$result = $ldap->search($filter);
$entries = $result->getEntries();

foreach ($entries as $entry) {
    $attr = $entry->getAttribute();
    echo $attr->getName() . '';
    foreach ($attr as $value) {
        echo  ' - ' . $value . '';
    }
}
```
