how to add a whole entry?

[Lukas M. <lu...@ms...>]

Hello,

I want to add a whole entry to an ldap tree with python-ldap. But I 
don't get any good result. I can add, replace, delete entries without a 
problem and with the function delete_s() it's also possible to delete a 
whole entry. But how can i add/create any entry?  I dont't want to add 
only an attribute. I.e. I want to add cn=Test Person, ou=Persons, 
dc=domain. I can't find anything about how to do that. Can anyone give 
me a hint for that?

Best regards

Lukas Meyer

That's what LDAPObject.add_s() is for.

See Demo/simple.py for an example.

Ciao, Michael.

Hi there,

	Well, I am also learning it. But it is troubleless with the method=20
add_s in the ldap object,=20

Just do l.add_s (dn_string, [ (attribute_name, attribute_value),=20
(attribute_name), (attribute_value)]) , being carefull to include all=20
the mandatory attributes for each objectClass. BTW objectClass itself=20
is a mandatory attribute.

Check the error returned from the ldap (to learn, better, i usually do=20
these experiences in  an interactive python shell), to see if any=20
attribute is missing.
