REST configuration backend

You can share your configuration over the network using REST proxy system:

• GET /config/latest: get the last config metadata
• GET /config/<cfgNum>: get the metadata for config n° <cfgNum>
• GET /config/<latest|cfgNum>/<key>: get conf key value
• GET /config/<latest|cfgNum>?full: get the full configuration

• On your main server, configure a File, SQL or LDAP backend
• Enable REST server in the configuration using the manager (in portal plugins)
• Configure your web server to allow remote access. Remote REST access is disabled by default. Change it as follow:

* In portal-apache2.conf:

# REST functions for configuration access (disabled by default)
<Location /index.fcgi/config>
    Require ip 192.168.2.0/24
</Location>

* In portal-nginx.conf:

# REST functions for configuration access (disabled by default)
location /index.psgi/config {
  allow 192.168.2.0/24;
}

Change configuration in lemonldap-ng.ini :

type         = REST
; Apache
baseUrl      = https://auth.example.com/index.fcgi/config
; Nginx
baseUrl      = https://auth.example.com/index.psgi/config

You can also add some other parameters

User         = lemonldap
Password     = mypassword
# LWP::UserAgent parameters
proxyOptions = { timeout => 5 }
