Description

Treequel is an LDAP toolkit for Ruby. It is intended to allow quick, easy access to LDAP directories in a manner consistent with LDAP's hierarchical, free-form nature.

It's inspired by and modeled after Sequel, a kick-ass database library.

For more information on how to use it, check out the manual.

Command-Line Tools

There are several command-line tools that are built on top of Treequel in the 'treequel-shell' gem. They include:

treequel

an LDAP shell/editor; treat your LDAP directory like a filesystem!

treewhat

an LDAP schema explorer. Dump objectClasses and attribute type info in several convenient formats.

Contributors

A special thanks to Ben Bleything, who was part of the initial brainstorm that led to the creation of this library.

Thanks also to Ben Cooksley of the KDE project, who has been full of great ideas for the Model side of Treequel; it's vastly better for his suggestions.
