ldap3 is a strictly RFC 4510 conforming **LDAP V3 pure Python client** library. The same codebase runs in Python 2, Python 3, PyPy and PyPy3.


A more pythonic LDAP
--------------------

LDAP operations look clumsy and hard-to-use because they reflect the old-age idea that time-consuming operations should be performed client-side
to not hog the server with heavy elaborations. To alleviate this ldap3 includes a fully functional **Abstraction Layer** that lets you
interact with the LDAP server in a modern and *pythonic* way. With the Abstraction Layer you don't need to directly issue any LDAP operation at all.


Thread safe strategies
----------------------

In multithreaded programs you must use on of **SAFE_SYNC** (synchronous connection strategy), **SAFE_RESTARTABLE** (restartable syncronous connection strategy) or **ASYNC** (asynchronous connection strategy).
   Each LDAP operation with SAFE_SYNC or SAFE_RESTARTABLE strategies returns a tuple of four elements: status, result, response and request.

   * status: states if the operation was successful

   * result: the LDAP result of the operation

   * response: the response of a LDAP Search Operation

   * request: the original request of the operation

   The SafeSync strategy can be used with the Abstract Layer, but the Abstract Layer currently is NOT thread safe.
   For example, to use *SAFE_SYNC*::

      from ldap3 import Server, Connection, SAFE_SYNC
      server = Server('my_server')
      conn = Connection(server, 'my_user', 'my_password', client_strategy=SAFE_SYNC, auto_bind=True)
      status, result, response, _ = conn.search('o=test', '(objectclass=*)')  # usually you don't need the original request (4th element of the returned tuple)


  With *ASYNC* you must request the response with the *get_response()* method.
