Public Class Methods

build(args) click to toggle source

Description ↑

Create a new URI::LDAP object from components, with syntax checking.

The components accepted are host, port, dn, attributes, scope, filter, and extensions.

The components should be provided either as an Array, or as a Hash with keys formed by preceding the component names with a colon.

If an Array is used, the components must be passed in the order [host, port, dn, attributes, scope, filter, extensions].

Example:

newuri = URI::LDAP.build({:host => 'ldap.example.com',
  :dn> => '/dc=example'})

newuri = URI::LDAP.build(["ldap.example.com", nil,
  "/dc=example;dc=com", "query", nil, nil, nil])
Calls superclass method URI::Generic::build 
# File lib/uri/ldap.rb, line 74
def self.build(args)
  tmp = Util::make_components_hash(self, args)

  if tmp[:dn]
    tmp[:path] = tmp[:dn]
  end

  query = []
  [:extensions, :filter, :scope, :attributes].collect do |x|
    next if !tmp[x] && query.size == 0
    query.unshift(tmp[x])
  end

  tmp[:query] = query.join('?')

  return super(tmp)
end
new(*arg) click to toggle source

Description ↑

Create a new URI::LDAP object from generic URI components as per RFC 2396. No LDAP-specific syntax checking is performed.

Arguments are scheme, userinfo, host, port, registry, path, opaque, query and fragment, in that order.

Example:

uri = URI::LDAP.new("ldap", nil, "ldap.example.com", nil,
  "/dc=example;dc=com", "query", nil, nil, nil, nil)

Calls superclass method URI::Generic::new 
# File lib/uri/ldap.rb, line 109
def initialize(*arg)
  super(*arg)

  if @fragment
    raise InvalidURIError, 'bad LDAP URL'
  end
