An example of getting the root DSE:
>>> client = bonsai.LDAPClient() >>> client.get_rootDSE() {'namingContexts': ['dc=bonsai,dc=test'], 'supportedControl': ['2.16.840.1.113730.3.4.18', '2.16.840.1.113730.3.4.2', '1.3.6.1.4.1.4203.1.10.1', '1.2.840.113556.1.4.319', '1.2.826.0.1.3344810.2.3', '1.3.6.1.1.13.2', '1.3.6.1.1.13.1', '1.3.6.1.1.12'], 'supportedLDAPVersion': ['3'], 'supportedExtension': ['1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.20037', '1.3.6.1.4.1.4203.1.11.1', '1.3.6.1.4.1.4203.1.11.3', '1.3.6.1.1.8'], 'supportedSASLMechanisms': ['DIGEST-MD5', 'NTLM', 'CRAM-MD5']}
- LDAPClient.set_async_connection_class(conn)#
Set the LDAP connection class for asynchronous connection. The default connection class is
bonsai.asyncio.AIOLDAPConnection
that uses the asyncio event loop.- Parameters:
conn (BaseLDAPConnection) – the new asynchronous connection class that is a subclass of LDAPConnection.
- Raises:
TypeError – if conn parameter is not a subclass of
BaseLDAPConnection
.
An example to change the default async connection class to a Gevent-based one:
>>> import bonsai >>> from bonsai.gevent import GeventLDAPConnection >>> client = bonsai.LDAPClient() >>> client.set_async_connection_class(GeventLDAPConnection) >>> client.connect(True) <bonsai.gevent.geventconnection.GeventLDAPConnection object at 0x7f9b1789c6d8>
- LDAPClient.set_auto_page_acquire(val)#
Turn on or off the automatic page acquiring during a paged LDAP search. By turning automatic page acquiring on, it is unnecessary to call
ldapsearchiter.acquire_next_page()
. It will be implicitly called during iteration.- Parameters:
val (bool) – enabling/disabling auto page acquiring.
- Raises:
TypeError – If the parameter is not a bool type.
- LDAPClient.set_ca_cert(name)#
Set the name of CA certificate. If the underlying libldap library uses the Mozilla NSS as TLS library the name should be the same one in the cert/key database (that specified with
LDAPClient.set_ca_cert_dir()
), otherwise it can be the name of the CA cert file.Note
This method has no effect on MS Windows, because WinLDAP searches for the corresponding CA certificate in the cert store. This means that the necessary certificates have to be installed manually in to the cert store.
- Parameters:
name (str) – the name of the CA cert.
- Raises:
TypeError – if name parameter is not a string or not None.
- LDAPClient.set_ca_cert_dir(path)#
Set the directory of the CA cert. If the underlying libldap library uses the Mozilla NSS as TLS library the path should be the path to the existing cert/key database, otherwise it can be the path of the CA cert file.
Note
This method has no effect on MS Windows, because WinLDAP searches for the corresponding CA certificate in the cert store. This means that the necessary certifications have to be installed manually in to the cert store.
- Parameters:
path (str) – the path to the CA directory.
- Raises:
TypeError – if path parameter is not a string or not None.
- LDAPClient.set_cert_policy(policy)#
Set policy about server certification.
- Parameters:
policy (str) –
the cert policy could be one of the following strings:
try or demand: the server cert will be verified, and if it fail, then the
LDAPClient.connect()
will raise an error.never or allow: the server cert will be used without any verification.
- Raises:
TypeError – if the policy parameter is not a string.
ValueError – if the policy not one of the four above.
Warning
Set off the cert verification is dangerous. Without verification there is a chance of man-in-the-middle attack.
- LDAPClient.set_client_cert(name)#
Set the name of client certificate. If the underlying libldap library uses the Mozilla NSS as TLS library the name should be the same one in the cert/key database (that specified with
LDAPClient.set_ca_cert_dir()
), otherwise it can be the name of the client certificate file.Note
This method has no effect on MS Windows, because WinLDAP searches for the corresponding client certificate based on the servert’s CA cert in the cert store. This means that the necessary certificates have to be installed manually in to the cert store.
- Parameters:
name (str) – the name of the client cert.
- Raises:
TypeError – if name parameter is not a string or not None.
- LDAPClient.set_client_key(name)#
Set the file that contains the private key that matches the certificate of the client that specified with
LDAPClient.set_client_cert()
).Note
This method has no effect on MS Windows, because WinLDAP searches for the corresponding client certificate based on the servert’s CA cert in the cert store. This means that the necessary certificates have to be installed manually in to the cert store.
- Parameters:
name (str) – the name of the CA cert.
- Raises:
TypeError – if name parameter is not a string or not None.
- LDAPClient.set_credentials(mechanism, user=None, password=None, realm=None, authz_id=None, keytab=None)#
Set binding mechanism and credential information. All parameters are optional except the mechanism. Different mechanism applies different credential information and ignores the rest. For example:
SIMPLE uses the user (as bind DN) and password.
EXTERNAL only uses the authz_id as authorization ID.
For other use-cases see this section about authentication mechanisms.
- Parameters:
mechanism (str) – the name of the binding mechanism.
user (str) – the identification of the binding user.
password (str) – the password of the user.
realm (str) – the (Kerberos) realm of the user.
authz_id (str) – the authorization ID for the user.
keytab (str) – path to a Kerberos keytab for authentication.
- Raises:
TypeError – if mechanism is not string, or any of the other parameters are not string or None, or both of the password and keytab parameters are set.
>>> from bonsai import LDAPClient >>> client = LDAPClient() >>> client.set_credentials("SIMPLE", user="cn=user,dc=bonsai,dc=test", password="secret") >>> client.connect() <bonsai.LDAPConnection object at 0x7fadf8976440>
- LDAPClient.set_extended_dn(extdn_format)#
Set the format of extended distinguished name for LDAP_SERVER_EXTENDED_DN_OID control which extends the entries’ distingushed name with GUID and SID attributes. If the server supports the control, the LDAPEntry objects’ extended_dn attribute will be set (as a string) and the dn attribute will be kept in the simple format.
Setting 0 specifies that the GUID and SID values be returned in hexadecimal string format, while setting 1 will return the GUID and SID values in standard string format. Passing None will remove the control in a format of <GUID=xxxx>;<SID=yyyy>;distinguishedName.
- Parameters:
extdn_format (int) – the format of the extended dn. It can be 0, 1 or None.
- Raises:
TypeError – if the parameter is not int or None.
ValueError – if the parameter is not 0, 1 or None.
An example:

Note
If the extended dn control is not supported the LDAPEntry’s extended_dn attribute will be None. The LDAP_SERVER_EXTENDED_DN_OID is defined as ‘1.2.840.113556.1.4.529’.
- LDAPClient.set_ignore_referrals(val)#

LDAPClient.server_chase_referrals
is also disabled, than search result can containLDAPReference
objects along withLDAPEntry
objects.- Parameters:
val (bool) – enabling/disabling LDAP referrals in search result.
- Raises:
TypeError – If the parameter is not a bool type.
- LDAPClient.set_managedsait(val)#
Set ManageDsaIT control for LDAP operations. With ManageDsaIT an LDAP referral can be searched, added and modified as a common LDAP entry.
- Parameters:
val (bool) – enabling/disabling ManageDsaIT control.
- Raises:
TypeError – If the parameter is not a bool type.
- LDAPClient.set_password_policy(ppolicy)#
Enable password policy control, if it is provided by the directory server. Setting it True will change the return value of
LDAPClient.connect()
andLDAPConnection.open()
to a tuple of (conn, ctrl) where the conn is anLDAPConnection
, the ctrl is a dict of returned password policy control response that contains the oid, the remaining seconds of password expiration, and the number of remaining grace logins. If the password policy control is not available on the server or not supported by the platform the second item in the returned tuple is None, instead of a dictionary.By enabling the password policy control the server can send additional error messages related to the user’s account and password during conneting to the server and changing entries.
- Parameters:
ppolicy (bool) – enabling/disabling password policy control.
- Raises:
TypeError – If the parameter is not a bool type.
An example:
>>> import bonsai >>> client = bonsai.LDAPClient() >>> client.set_credentials("SIMPLE", "cn=user,dc=bonsai,dc=test", "secret") >>> client.set_password_policy(True) >>> conn, ctrl = client.connect() >>> conn <bonsai.ldapconnection.LDAPConnection object at 0x7fa552ab4e28> >>> ctrl {'grace': 1, 'expire': 3612, 'oid': '1.3.6.1.4.1.42.2.27.8.5.1'})
Note
Password policy control cannot be used on MS Windows with WinLDAP. In this case after opening a connection the control dictionary will always be None.
- LDAPClient.set_raw_attributes(raw_list)#
By default the values of the LDAPEntry are in string format. The values of the listed LDAP attribute’s names in raw_list will be kept in bytearray format.
- Parameters:
raw_list (list) – a list of LDAP attribute’s names. The elements must be string and unique.
- Raises:
TypeError – if any of the list’s element is not a string.
ValueError – if the item in the lit is not a unique element.
An example:
>>> client = bonsai.LDAPClient() >>> client.set_raw_attributes(["cn", "sn"]) >>> conn = client.connect() >>> conn.search("cn=jeff,ou=nerdherd,dc=bonsai,dc=test", 0, attrlist=['cn', 'sn', 'gn']) [{'dn': <LDAPDN cn=jeff,ou=nerdherd,dc=bonsai,dc=test>, 'sn': [b'Barnes'], 'cn': [b'jeff'], 'givenName': ['Jeff']}]

- LDAPConnection.search(base=None, scope=None, filter_exp=None, attrlist=None, timeout=None, sizelimit=0, attrsonly=False, sort_order=None)#
Perform a search on the directory server. A base DN and a search scope is always necessary to perform a search, but these values - along with the attribute’s list and search filter - can also be set with the
LDAPClient
LDAP URL parameter. The parameters, which are passed to theLDAPConnection.search()
method will overrule the previously set ones with the LDAP URL.Setting sort_order will invoke server side sorting LDAP control, based on the provided attribute list.
>>> from bonsai import LDAPClient >>> client = LDAPClient("ldap://localhost") # without additional parameters >>> conn = client.connect() >>> conn.search("ou=nerdherd,dc=bonsai,dc=test", 1, "(cn=ch*)", ["cn", "sn", "gn"]) [{'dn': <LDAPDN cn=chuck,ou=nerdherd,dc=bonsai,dc=test>, 'sn': ['Bartowski'], 'cn': ['chuck'], 'givenName': ['Chuck']}] >>> client = LDAPClient("ldap://localhost/ou=nerdherd,dc=bonsai,dc=test?cn,sn,gn?one?(cn=ch*)") # with additional parameters >>> conn = client.connect() >>> conn.search() [{'dn': <LDAPDN cn=chuck,ou=nerdherd,dc=bonsai,dc=test>, 'sn': ['Bartowski'], 'cn': ['chuck'], 'givenName': ['Chuck']}] >>> conn.search(filter_exp="(cn=j*)") [{'dn': <LDAPDN cn=jeff,ou=nerdherd,dc=bonsai,dc=test>, 'sn': ['Barnes'], 'cn': ['jeff'], 'givenName': ['Jeff']}]

- LDAPConnection.paged_search(base=None, scope=None, filter_exp=None, attrlist=None, timeout=None, sizelimit=0, attrsonly=False, sort_order=None, page_size=1)#
Perform a search that returns a paged search result. The number of entries on a page is limited with the page_size parameter. The return value is an
ldapsearchiter
which is an iterable object. By default, after returning the last entry on the page it automatically requests the next page from the server until the final page is delivered. This functionality can be disabled by setting theLDAPClient.auto_page_acquire
to false. Then the next page can be acquired manually by calling theldapsearchiter.acquire_next_page()
method.- Parameters:
base (str) – the base DN of the search.
scope (int) – the scope of the search. An
LDAPSearchScope
also can be used as value.filter_exp (str) – string to filter the search in LDAP search filter syntax.

Perform a search using virtual list view control. To perform the search the server side sort control has to be set with sort_order. The result set will be shifted to the offset or attrvalue and contains the specific number of entries after and before, set with after_count and before_count. The est_list_count is an estimation of the entire searched list that helps to the server to position the target entry.
The result of the operation is a tuple of a list and a dictionary. The dictionary contains the VLV server response: the target position and the real list size. Thi list contains the searched entries.
For further details using these controls please see LDAP controls.

SecurityDescriptor
#
- class bonsai.active_directory.SecurityDescriptor(control, owner_sid, group_sid, sacl, dacl, revision=1, sbz1=0)#
A class that defines the security attributes of an object. These attributes specify who owns the object; who can access the object and what they can do with it; what level of audit logging can be applied to the object; and what kind of restrictions apply to the use of the security descriptor. It can contain two types of
ACL
:A discretionary access control list (DACL) is controlled by the owner of an object or anyone granted WRITE_DAC access to the object. It specifies the access particular users and groups can have to an object. For example, the owner of a file can use a DACL to control which users and groups can and cannot have access to the file.
A system access control list (SACL) is similar to the DACL, except that the SACL is used to audit rather than control access to an object. When an audited action occurs, the operating system records the event in the security log. Each ACE in a SACL has a header that indicates whether auditing is triggered by success, failure, or both; a SID that specifies a particular user or security group to monitor; and an access mask that lists the operations to audit.
- Parameters:
control (dict) – a dict that specifies control access bit flags.
owner_sid (SID|None) – the SID of the owner of the object.
group_sid (SID|None) – the SID of the group of the object.
sacl (ACL|None) – the system access control list.
dacl (ACL|None) – the discretionary access control list.
revision (int) – the revision of the security descriptor.
sbz1 (int) – reserved value.

bool
- bonsai.set_connect_async(allow)#
Disable/enable asynchronous connection for the underlying socket, which means that the socket is set to be non-blocking when it’s enabled. The default setting is False on every platform. This is an OpenLDAP specific setting (see LDAP_OPT_CONNECT_ASYNC option in the OpenLDAP documentation for further details).
- Parameters:
allow (bool) – Enabling/disabling async connect mode.
Warning
Experience shows that this is a delicate setting. Even with a newer OpenLDAP, the TLS library version used by libldap might be unable to handle non-blocking sockets correctly.
- bonsai.set_debug(debug, level=0)#
Set debug mode for the module. Turning it on will provide traceback information of C function calls on the standard output.
If the module uses OpenLDAP, then setting the level parameter to a non-zero integer will also give additional info about the libldap function calls.
- Parameters:
debug (bool) – Enabling/disabling debug mode.
level (int) – The debug level (for OpenLDAP only).
