Usage
-----

Login/pass:

.. code::

        import mozlibldap

        l = mozlibldap.MozLDAP(LDAP_URL, LDAP_BIND_DN, LDAP_BIND_PASSWD)
        print(l.get_user_posix_uid("[e-mail]"))

With client certificate (the certificate DN needs to match your LDAP DN).
The client cert, key file and optional ca cert (last argument) are all PEM files.

.. code::

        import mozlibldap

        l = mozlibldap.MozLDAP(LDAP_URL, LDAP_BIND_DN, None, LDAP_BIND_CLIENTCERT, LDAP_BIND_KEYFILE)
        # If using a self-signed CA in a specific location, like Mozilla CA
        #l = mozlibldap.MozLDAP(LDAP_URL, LDAP_BIND_DN, None, LDAP_BIND_CLIENTCERT, LDAP_BIND_KEYFILE,
        #                       "/etc/ssl/mozca.pem")
        print(l.get_user_posix_uid("[e-mail]"))
