Extension:LDAPGroups

This extension provides an way to map group membership information from a directory service (such as LDAP or Active Directory) to MediaWiki groups using the interface provided by LDAPProvider.

Configuration

There are two synchronization mechanisms:

• Mapped: "Sync only specifically defined groups and apply a mapping"
• All: "Sync all groups from LDAP, except from some that are managed by the wiki itself"

Mapped

<syntaxhighlight lang="json"> { "LDAP": { ... "groupsync": { "mechanism": "MediaWiki\\Extension\\LDAPGroups\\SyncMechanism\\MappedGroups::factory", "mapping": { "mathematicans": "ou=mathematicans,dc=example,dc=com" "scientists": "ou=scientists,dc=example,dc=com" } }, ... } } </syntaxhighlight>

All

<syntaxhighlight lang="json"> { "LDAP": { ... "groupsync": { "mechanism": "MediaWiki\\Extension\\LDAPGroups\\SyncMechanism\\AllGroups::factory", "locally-managed": ["sysop"] }, ... } } </syntaxhighlight>
