How to configure LDAP in Discourse?
-
@yusf Yes, it should remain compatible. I haven't gotten time to updating the Dockerfile to have the LDAP plugin pre-installed and pre-configured. If you have the code for that, I can look into merging it.
@girish yet another reason for having the LDAP plugin for Discourse pre-installed and pre-configured on Cloudron would be so that we can start to try and reverse engineer the new Discourse Teams as much as possible (sadly it's not all open source, although as I understand it lots of the features are just using open source plugins)
More info about the difference between Discourse and Discourse Teams:
https://support.teams.discourse.com/docs?topic=85
https://meta.discourse.org/t/comparing-discourse-for-teams-with-discourse/168423/7Edit: and following my prompts they've now added the list of open source plugins they use in Teams to that support link, i.e.
Ships with the following official plugins: akismet, assign, cakeday, calendar, chat-integration, checklist, code-review, docs, encrypt, footnote, github, graphviz, math, openid-connect, policy, rss-polling, solved, spoiler-alert

Sorry. Got to the party too late. Today I installed the LDAP plugin from here https://github.com/jonmbake/discourse-ldap-auth and took some ldap creds from my wekan app.
Short info: both user managements lives together in harmony
In my understanding the sign-up process goes to discourse user management. LDAP is only for the sign-in process (makes sense).
The only glitch at the moment:
Disabling LDAP in the Plugin settings doesn't change anything.My 2 cents for the moment: please add the LDAP addon to this app, because of the plugin and some use cases, where LDAP makes sense.

Probably have to restart discourse?
