!DO NOT USE THIS PACKAGE! It's buggy and not well designed. I just used this to learn python-ldap. There are better python/ldap packages out there.
ldaphelper is a simple Python module/package based on python-ldap that make my Life as an LDAP operator easier. I use it in a lot of scripts for automatic or manual manage of LDAP entries.
At this point you should consider ldaphelper to be experimental, and there are likely plenty of bugs and missing features to address, so please file them as you run into them on the issue tracker.
- python 2.6 or newer
- python-ldap
