        About
        -----
        
        _django-ldapdb_ is an LDAP database backend for Django. It allows you to
        manipulate LDAP entries using Django's models. Declaring models using the
        LDAP backend is very staightforward, you simply inherit from
        _ldapdb.models.Model_ and declare the fields in the same way as for regular
        models. You can even edit the LDAP entries using Django's admin interface.
        
        _django-ldapdb_ requires Django version 1.2.x, 1.3.x, 1.4.x, 1.5.x, 1.6.x
        or 1.7.x.

        file for details. See AUTHORS file for a full list of contributors.
        
        Using django-ldapdb
        -------------------
        
        Add the following to your _settings.py_:
        
            DATABASES = {
                ...
                'ldap': {
                    'ENGINE': 'ldapdb.backends.ldap',
                    'NAME': 'ldap://ldap.nodomain.org/',
                    'USER': 'cn=admin,dc=nodomain,dc=org',
                    'PASSWORD': 'some_secret_password',
                 }
             }
            DATABASE_ROUTERS = ['ldapdb.router.Router']
        
        If you want to access posixGroup entries in your application, you can add
        something like this to your _models.py_:
        
            from ldapdb.models.fields import CharField, IntegerField, ListField
            import ldapdb.models
        
            class LdapGroup(ldapdb.models.Model):
                """
                Class for representing an LDAP group entry.
                """
                # LDAP meta-data
                base_dn = "ou=groups,dc=nodomain,dc=org"
                object_classes = ['posixGroup']
        
                # posixGroup attributes
                gid = IntegerField(db_column='gidNumber', unique=True)
                name = CharField(db_column='cn', max_length=200, primary_key=True)
                members = ListField(db_column='memberUid')
        
                def __str__(self):
                    return self.name
        
                def __unicode__(self):
                    return self.name
        
        _Important note_ : you _must_ declare an attribute to be used as the primary
        key. This attribute will play a special role, as it will be used to build the
        Relative Distinguished Name of the entry. For instance in the example above,
        a group whose cn is _foo_ will have the DN _cn=foo,ou=groups,dc=nodomain,dc=org_.
