% Give a short overview of what the module does.
% If it is platform specific, mention this.
% Mention other important restrictions or general operating principles.
This module parses and generates LDAP URLs.
It is implemented in pure Python and does not rely on any
non-standard modules. Therefore it can be used stand-alone without
the rest of the python-ldap package.
Compability note: This module has been solely tested on Python 2.x and above.
The \module{ldapurl} module exports the following constants:
\begin{datadesc}{SEARCH_SCOPE}
This dictionary maps a search scope string identifier
to the corresponding integer value used with search operations
in \module{ldap}.
\end{datadesc}
\begin{datadesc}{SEARCH_SCOPE_STR}
This dictionary is the inverse to \constant{SEARCH_SCOPE}. It
maps a search scope integer value to the corresponding string identifier
used in a LDAP URL string representation.
\end{datadesc}
\begin{datadesc}{LDAP_SCOPE_BASE}
\end{datadesc}
\begin{datadesc}{LDAP_SCOPE_ONELEVEL}
\end{datadesc}
\begin{datadesc}{LDAP_SCOPE_SUBTREE}
\end{datadesc}

\subsection{LDAPUrl Objects \label{ldapurl-ldapurl}}
A \class{LDAPUrl} object represents a complete LDAP URL.
All class methods:
Class attributes:
Instance attributes:
\subsection{LDAPUrlExtension Objects \label{ldapurl-ldapurlextension}}
A \class{LDAPUrlExension} object represents a single LDAP URL extension.
All class methods:
Class attributes:

\subsection{Example \label{ldapurl-example}}
Important security advice:
For security reasons you shouldn't specify passwords in LDAP URLs
unless you really know what you are doing.
The following example demonstrates how to parse a LDAP URL
with \module{ldapurl} module.
\begin{verbatim}
>>> import ldapurl
>>> ldap_url = ldapurl.LDAPUrl('ldap://localhost:1389/dc=stroeder,dc=com?cn,mail???bindname=cn=Michael%2cdc=stroeder%2cdc=com,X-BINDPW=secret')
>>> # Using the parsed LDAP URL by reading the class attributes
>>> ldap_url.dn
'dc=stroeder,dc=com'
>>> ldap_url.hostport
'localhost:1389'
>>> ldap_url.attrs
['cn','mail']
>>> ldap_url.filterstr
'(objectclass=*)'
>>> ldap_url.who
'cn=Michael,dc=stroeder,dc=com'
>>> ldap_url.cred
'secret'
>>> ldap_url.scope
0
\end{verbatim}
The following example demonstrates how to generate a LDAP URL
with \module{ldapurl} module.
\begin{verbatim}
>>> import ldapurl
>>> ldap_url = ldapurl.LDAPUrl(hostport='localhost:1389',dn='dc=stroeder,dc=com',attrs=['cn','mail'],who='cn=Michael,dc=stroeder,dc=com',cred='secret')
>>> ldap_url.unparse()
'ldap://localhost:1389/dc=stroeder,dc=com?cn,mail?base?(objectclass=*)?bindname=cn=Michael%2Cdc=stroeder%2Cdc=com,X-BINDPW=secret'
\end{verbatim}
