#belongs_to(association_id, options = {}) ⇒ Object

belongs_to

This defines a method for an extension class map its DN key attribute value on to multiple items which reference it by |:foreign_key| in the other LDAP entry covered by class |:class_name|.

Example:

belongs_to :groups, :class_name => "Group",
           :many => "memberUid" # Group#memberUid
           # :foreign_key => "uid" # User#uid
           # dn attribute value is used by default
belongs_to :primary_group, :class_name => "Group",
           :foreign_key => "gidNumber", # User#gidNumber
           :primary_key => "gidNumber"  # Group#gidNumber

#has_many(association_id, options = {}) ⇒ Object

has_many

This defines a method for an extension class expand an existing multi-element attribute into ActiveLdap objects. This discards any calls which result in entries that don’t exist in LDAP!

Example:

has_many :primary_members, :class_name => "User",
         :primary_key => "gidNumber", # User#gidNumber
         :foreign_key => "gidNumber"  # Group#gidNumber
has_many :members, :class_name => "User",
         :wrap => "memberUid" # Group#memberUid
