LDAP is complicated. Many times, all you really need to do is authenticate users with it. This package boils down LDAP functionality to User Authentication, that's it.

Example:
package main
import (
"log"
"github.com/nerney/dappy"
)
func main() {
var client dappy.Client
var err error
// create a new client
if client, err = dappy.New(dappy.Config{
BaseDN: "dc=example,dc=com",
Filter: "uid",
ROUser: dappy.User{Name: "cn=read-only-admin,dc=example,dc=com", Pass: "password"},
Host: "ldap.forumsys.com:389",
}); err != nil {
panic(err)
}
// username and password to authenticate
username := "tesla"
password := "password"
// attempt the authentication
if err := client.Auth(username, password); err != nil {
panic(err)
} else {
log.Println("Success!")
}
}
