== Userservice using LDAP ==
=== What is it? ===
The userservice is just using LDAP to authenticate, create, delete, and change data for users. With it, you can easily create a user in the LDAP, change some data (for now: firstname, lastname, email) for your user, change your password, or delete the useraccount. The request for a password reset is still WIP.
=== Installation ===
In the requirements.txt are the python modules it uses. Install with a virtualenv with python3. Be aware that django-auth-ldap uses python-ldap and thus wants some system libraries. Also, since it's using nameko, you should provide a rabbitmq for it to use. Also django-nameko has a typo and you should edit the $virtualenv/lib/python3.5/site-packages/django_nameko/__init__.py from
from rpc import
to
from .rpc import
till it's fixed. Config options are in nameko.conf and of course the dal/dal/settings.py The standard settings there work fine with a LDAP server set up with the information on our wiki. Except the manager password, set that to what you choose.
