The intro to the policy says "This privacy policy applies to the Site and all products and services offered by NodeBB."
Does that mean it applies to the end users of the NodeBB forums?
@julian I took a lot at those plug-ins and I definitely think I can have something cooking by the end of the week or so....
Once I have it working, ill add it to npm......do you have a specific naming convention on npm?
Yep -- please follow this nomenclature: nodebb-plugin-sso-{provider}
, so in your case, nodebb-plugin-sso-ldap
@julian Will do...I'll also look over your plug-in documentation later this week....thanks for the support!
Feel free to hop onto #nodebb on Freenode IRC if you'd like to chat more in-depth.
nodebb-plugin-sso-ldap was written at some point but was then taken down by the author. I'm not exactly sure why, potentially because it didn't work, or he wanted to take it private for his own benefit?
Up! Is any plugin written yet? Do you need some help?
Hi @daweedco ! At current, there is no LDAP implementation yet, so if you want to take a crack at it, by all means!
Hi Team,
I installed nodebb-plugin-sso-ldap from (https://github.com/ianbogda/nodebb-plugin-sso-ldap) in my NodeBB (v0.6.0). While restarting the NodeBB, faced an error mentioned below. How to fix it?
error: TypeError: Cannot read property 'buildHeader' of undefined
at Object.Ldap.init [as method] (/home/ubuntu/Nodebb/nodebb/NodeBB/NodeBB-NodeBB-2a92c11/node_modules/nodebb-plugin-sso-ldap/library.js:28:60)
@Prasanna-Prachu Looks like it's been a long time since that plugin is updated. It definitely doesn't support NodeBB v0.6.x.
Run
./nodebb reset plugin="nodebb-plugin-sso-ldap"
@pichalite Done. Now how to proceed with LDAP integration in NodeBB?
What is LDAP?
Don't give me what it stands for.
What is it actually used for?
We Use LDAP which contains list of users and group. so people can use the same username to login to NodeBB forum site.
@Prasanna-Prachu That ... doesn't help me understand what it is (although I realize it is what I asked for). Is it a database? Is it an SSO? Is it a user management thingy?
@pitaj It is an user management like Active Directory
@julian I'm struggling with fixing old broken plugin, but I have no clue how to solve a strange problem. Plugin initializes well, but when I click on the alternative login button I get "Bad Request" error and I can't track where does it come from. Running NodeBB in dev mode does not show anything. Any clues how to find out what's causing a problem?
Anyway, it looks like fixing this old plugin is not a hard task, but I'm not very familiar with NodeBB code, so maybe someone more canny would accomplish it
@rasguanabana Show me the code on GitHub? Most likely the method attached to the static:app.init
is taking multiple arguments in your plugin, but should only take one: data
.
@julian I haven't created github repo yet. Here's the code: http://pastebin.com/LVSch1Wn
Any progress on this route?
Any news? If not I'll make an effort this weekend and see what I can get.
