README

Sentinel LDAP is a Cartalyst Sentinel addon and lets you authenticate your users using LDAP (Active Directory).

The package requires PHP 5.4+ and comes bundled with a Laravel 4 Facade and a Service Provider to simplify the optional framework integration and follows the FIG standard PSR-4 to ensure a high level of interoperability between shared PHP code. The package also requires that you have php5-ldap extension installed in your server.

Installation

Sentinel LDAP is installable with Composer. Follow the instructions below

1. Copy the following line in your composer.json "require" section.

"roshangautam/sentinel-ldap": "dev-master",

2. Run php artisan config:publish roshangautam/sentinel-ldap
3. Open app/config/packages/roshangautam/sentinel-ldap/config.php and populate the parameters
