NodeBB + Ldap = internal BB?

[girish]

@yusf Not sure why it needs them because it uses ldapjs

[yusf]

@girish Any insight into this? I've no idea either.

@yusf I couldn’t wait longer so I went for Wordpress, BBpress and BuddyPress.

[girish]

@yusf Not really, haven't had time to look into it. Maybe in the next 2-3 weeks. Cloudron 6 is the important priority now.

I want to login to nodebb by using LDAP, which plugin should I use?
I have tried nodebb-plugin-office-ldap and nodebb-plugin-sso-ldap, and I can't solve my problem very well.

[girish]

@flistertwo None of the ldap plugins have been updated in a while, so one has to develop a LDAP plugin to make things work with NodeBB. https://github.com/smartameer/nodebb-plugin-office-ldap hasn't been updated in 3 years and https://github.com/ianbogda/nodebb-plugin-sso-ldap has no updates in 6 years.

@girish the one I shared above https://github.com/ink-blot/nodebb-plugin-node-ldap is also a little bit old (the last commit was nearly 12 months ago), but it's newer than those two.

@jdaviescoates
Theres a more active fork at https://github.com/csturiale/nodebb-plugin-node-ldap

[sirmavid]

the plugin doesn't work as it fails to activate.
