interface for LDAP Account Manager</h1>
|

<br>
|
|
<br>
|
|
<h2>1. Location and naming of modules</h2>
|
|
All LAM modules are placed in lib/modules/ and are named "<class
|
|
name>.inc".<br>
|
|
E.g. if you create a new module and its class name is "qmail" then the
|
|
filename would be "qmail.inc".<br>
|
|
<br>
|
|
The class name of a module must contain only a-z, A-Z, 0-9, -, and _.<br>
|
|
All module classes should extend the baseModule class.<br>
|
|
<br>
|
|
<h2>2. Class functions</h2>

This function returns a more descriptive string than the class name.
|
|
Alias names are used for the buttons of the account pages and the
|
|
module selection of the configuration wizard.<br>
|
|
Please take care that your alias name is not too long. It may contain
|
|
any character but should not include parts that may be interpreted by
|
|
the browser (e.g. '<' or '>').<br>
|
|
If you use different aliases dependent on the account type please make
|
|
sure that there is a general alias for unknown types.<br>

<h3>2.1.3. is_base_module*</h3>

|
|
<br>
|
|
Returns <span style="font-weight: bold;">true</span> if your module is
|
|
a base module and otherwise <span style="font-weight: bold;">false</span>.<br>
|
|
<span style="font-weight: bold;"></span><br>
|
|
Every account type needs at least one base module. A base module
|
|
defines a full qualified account.<br>
|
|
E.g. modules that use the object class posixAccount may be base modules
|
|
as it makes sense to manage these Unix accounts. On the other hand the
|
|
quota module is no base module as it needs posixAccount.<br>

build the LDAP filter. Usually

|
used to filter object classes.<br>
|
|
<span style="font-weight: bold;"></span><br>
|
|
All "or" filter parts of the base modules are combined with OR and then
|
|
combined with the "and" parts.<br>
|
|
The resulting LDAP filter will look like this:
|
|
(&(|(OR1)(OR2)(OR3))(AND1)(AND2)(AND3))<br>
|
|
<br>
|
|
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Example: <span

'(objectClass=posixAccount)', 'and' => '(!(uid=*$))')"</span></span><br>
|
|
<br>
|

<span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);">This function

is only used for base modules. Standard modules do not need to

implement it.</span><br>

All values of the conflict array are string values with module names.<br>
