如何在LDAP协议中使用Go

Question

How can I use Go to call and manage Ldap protocol directly? are there any packages? or must I use udp and tcp?

Answer 1

There is no LDAP library in the Go standard libraries, but a quick Google search reveals several you could try:

• https://github.com/mmitton/ldap
• https://github.com/tonnerre/go-ldap

This second one is actually a fork of the first one. On github you can always view the open issues, last update and forking network (https://github.com/mmitton/ldap/network) to get a pretty good sense of which library you should use when there is a lot of forking.

If you need a library for something omitted in the Go standard libraries there are several good places to look:

• Always start with a quick Google search
• Checkout: http://go-lang.cat-v.org/pure-go-libs / http://go-lang.cat-v.org/library-bindings
• And: http://godoc.org/
• And: http://code.google.com/p/go-wiki/wiki/Projects

If all of those fail you and you don't feel up to creating your own implementation, keep in mind you can always use cgo to call C code (such as one of the many C LDAP libraries for example) from Go.
