Backends ======== Backend id prefix ----------------- Each parameter of a backend instance must be prefixed by a backend id. This backend id must be unique. For example: .. sourcecode:: ini [backends] # configuration of the bk1 backend bk1.module = 'my.backend.module' bk1.display_name = 'My backend module' bk1.param = 'value' .. warning:: For the rest of the backends documentation, this prefix is infered. Common backend parameters ------------------------- Every backend instance systematicaly has two parameters: +---------------------+----------+------------------------------------+--------------------------+--------------------------------------------+ | Parameter | Section | Description | Values | Comment | +=====================+==========+====================================+==========================+============================================+ | module | backends | Library path to the module | Python library path | | +---------------------+----------+------------------------------------+--------------------------+--------------------------------------------+ | display_name | backends | Display_name of the backend | Free text | | +---------------------+----------+------------------------------------+--------------------------+--------------------------------------------+ Ldap Backend ------------ Class path ^^^^^^^^^^ The class path for the ldap backend is **ldapcherry.backend.backendLdap**.
