Some LDAP implementations (mainly AD and Outlook) accept and/or output DNs that are not valid. To support interaction with these invalid DNs a strictDN flag (default: true) has been added to the client and server constructors. Setting this flag to false will allow use of non-conforming DNs. When disabling strictDN in the ldapjs client, strings which wouldn't parse into a DN can then be passed to the ldap operation methods. It also means that some methods (such as search) may return results with string-formatted DNs instead of DN objects. When disabling strictDN in the ldapjs server, incoming requests that contain invalid DNs will be routed to the default ('') handler for that operation type. It is your responsiblity to differentiate between string-type and object-type DNs in those handlers.

LDAPjs
LDAPjs makes the LDAP protocol a first class citizen in Node.js.
Usage
For full docs, head on over to http://ldapjs.org.
var ldap = require('ldapjs');
var server = ldap.createServer();
server.search('dc=example', function(req, res, next) {
var obj = {
dn: req.dn.toString(),
attributes: {
objectclass: ['organization', 'top'],
o: 'example'
}
};
if (req.filter.matches(obj.attributes))
res.send(obj);
res.end();
});
server.listen(1389, function() {
console.log('ldapjs listening at ' + server.url);
});
To run that, assuming you've got the OpenLDAP client on your system:
ldapsearch -H ldap://localhost:1389 -x -b dc=example objectclass=*
Installation
npm install ldapjs
Formatting objectGUID attribute value
var ldap = require('ldapjs');
ldap.Attribute.settings.guid_format = ldap.GUID_FORMAT_B;
var client = ldap.createClient({
url: 'ldap://127.0.0.1/CN=test,OU=Development,DC=Home'
});
var opts = {
filter: '(objectclass=user)',
scope: 'sub',
attributes: ['objectGUID']
};
client.bind('username', 'password', function (err) {
client.search('CN=test,OU=Development,DC=Home', opts, function (err, search) {
search.on('searchEntry', function (entry) {
var user = entry.object;
console.log(user.objectGUID);
});
});
});
Note: for the sake of simplicity all checks and error handling was removed from the sample above.
The console output may be similar to the following (depending on the amount of users in the directory):
{a7667bb1-4aee-48ce-9d9d-a1193550deba}
{8d642ac8-14c6-4f27-ac5-94d39833da88}
Available formatting modes:
GUID_FORMAT_N
N specifier, 32 digits:
00000000000000000000000000000000
GUID_FORMAT_D
D specifier, 32 digits separated by hypens:
00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000
GUID_FORMAT_B
B specifier, 32 digits separated by hyphens, enclosed in braces:
{00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000}
GUID_FORMAT_P
P speficier, 32 digits separated by hyphens, enclosed in parentheses:
(00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000)
GUID_FORMAT_X
X speficier, four hexadecimal values enclosed in braces,
where the fourth value is a subset of eight hexadecimal values that is also enclosed in braces:
{0x00000000,0x0000,0x0000,{0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00}}
GUID formatting is unobtrusive by default. You should explicitly define formatting mode in order to enable it.
