Progress Update

June 23rd, 2012

It has been a little over 7 months since the last release. So I will update the current progress of the project.

Version 1 has a Git repository at https://github.com/ShMaunder/JMapMyLDAPv1. This has taken over the SVN repository hosted at JoomlaCode and now only Git will be updated. A maintenance release of 1.0.6 will be available within the coming week to address several issues (thanks to everyone on the forums and email for reporting these issues!).

The current progress of version 2 can be seen in the Git repository at https://github.com/ShMaunder/JMapMyLDAP. This version was nearly released some months back, though I decided to re-write a chunk of it. This re-write includes a new mini platform that provides importing projects, autoloading and much improved Joomla! platform support. It also introduces automated unit testing which can be somewhat difficult to write tests for considering the vast number of LDAP vendors. Version 2 will be released with the following features:

• Multiple LDAP server support (SQL and file based sources)
• New logging with error IDs provided across the board
• Component for Debugging and Configuration
• Group mapping support (plug-in based)
• Profile integration (plug-in based)
• Cron script for on-demand sync of LDAP users
• Joomla! 12.1 Platform support

Single Sign On (SSO) has also been re-written. SSO has been integrated into the mini platform and will be spun off into its own dedicated project called JSSOMySite. This project no longer relies on any LDAP libraries and can be installed without an LDAP configuration. Also, SSO plug-ins can return essential Joomla user fields such as e-mail and fullname to enable auto registration. The IP based SSO plug-in will be released within version 2 in addition to an updated HTTP plug-in. Changes to the HTTP plug-in include forcing HTTP authentication through HTTP-authenticate headers, and allowing fake e-mails to enable LDAP-less configuration.

Within the next few weeks, I will release a beta version 2. Please try it out and report any issues (or pull requests) with the release.
