DirectoryTree
More in-depth explanation for beginners and also for OpenLdap
As the project looks amazing, is not very accessible for beginners, Also, almost everything in Laravel doc looks like is referring to Active Directory, there are only a few references to OpenLdap wich looks confusing.
Hi @Christiazz!
Could you elaborate on what you found inaccessible or difficult to follow? I would definitely like to make it as accessible as possible, so your feedback on this is helpful.
Also, I chose to reference ActiveDirectory as its the most popular and feature rich provider of LDAP services and its the directory I personally interact with and know well. If you or anyone would like to PR OpenLDAP docs that would be greatly appreciated 🙏
Hi and sorry for the late reply! You know, the docs in general are understandable, but for a beginner, at the end of the day it matters how specifically and where exactly you should put the code. Sometimes I get confused about wich was the example and wich was the actual code to write. At the end I succeded, but only after 2 weeks after making it work I am understanding the whole logic. It could be very helpful a kind of directly-to-the-point with step.1, step-2 ecc or a video where its shown only the necessary to don't get overhelmed, I know it's a lot of work and this is just an idea, not expecting anything :) Regard OpenLdap this way: 'model' => LdapRecord\Models\OpenLDAP\User::class, in the auth.php did work. so regarding that, nothing to say. As a beginner, I am not confident with OpenLdap at all, I had just a server using that instead of active directory (unfortunatly). Also what confused me, is that I had to use Sanctum + plain authentication and this combo is not specified in the docs. Using the Laravel ui + plain auth just worked fine. Thanks a lot!
