NethServer Version: 8
Hi all, I would like to work with domain-user accounts under paperlessngx, is it possible?
The NS8 server is joined to a windows 2022 AD Domain…
LDAP is not provided yet in paperlessngx but it seems there are ways to implement it, see ldap3 in paperless-ngx | Rok Damjanić - Tech and Adventures
Hi @mrmarkuz, thank you for the hint. Do I have to create a custom docker image?
The custom image is needed to have python ldap installed but it would be easier when it’s included in the app. There’s an open issue about implementing LDAP: Implementation of Ldap into PAperless. · Issue #29 · compgeniuses/ns8-paperless-ngx · GitHub
@oneitonitram what do you think about adding LDAP to paperless? I could open a PR to replace the current paperless image with the custom image…

from the documentation, i think they mention, you are to build a custom docker image, that includes the needed libraries.
from how NS8 implements additional libraries, do you think its necessary to implement a custom docker image, or we could just add the library within the NS8 image at build.
if a custom image is necessary, then might explain why i was having issues with impleemnting SSO functions.
Something to Note. Our Version of paperless is slightly older than version 2.15 which was released in April, and features a new webserver.
there is also some significant changes to the docker image.
It would be prudent, to Update to the latest versions first, then begin working on implementing Ldap, as well as SSO and OIDC implementations already supported from version 2.5

The custom image is the paperless image plus the python ldap installation.
We could just add the Dockerfile like it’s done for example in ns8-nextcloud/nextcloud at main · NethServer/ns8-nextcloud · GitHub and set it in build-images.sh
Good idea.
