Install LDAP Addon

Introduction

To install the LDAP addon perform the following steps:

  1. Add LDAP dependency in your pom.xml
  2. Add config to  /hippo:configuration/hippo:security

Add LDAP dependency in your pom.xml

  <dependency>
   <groupId>org.hippoecm</groupId>
   <artifactId>hippo-ecm-addon-ldap-repository</artifactId>
   <version>${hippoecm.version}</version>
   <type>jar</type>
  </dependency>

Add config to  /hippo:configuration/hippo:security

The LDAP configuration is kept in the repository in the node:

/hippo:configuration/hippo:security/ldap-localhost

and the secure LDAP configuration in the node:

/hippo:configuration/hippo:security/ldaps-localhost

For both configurations there are examples available from:

 

You have to adapt the configuration for your situation. You can download one of the files, and either adapt it and import it automatically via hippoecm-extension.xml or import it via the web console, adapt in web console and write changes to repository. The files contain the ldap-localhost or ldaps-localhost node respectively, so the import is into the /hippo:configuration/hippo:security/ node.
