php-vas
This project is in alpha status. The following information indicates both existing and planned functionality.
php-vas is a connector between PHP, a popular web development platform, and Vintela Authentication Services (VAS). php-vas provides a PHP interface to the VAS developer API that lets you build web applications that use Microsoft's Active Directory for authentication, and for querying and management of enterprise user, computer and service information.
Supported platforms
php-vas is supported on all platforms that support both PHP 4 (or later) and VAS 3.0 (or later). These include, but are not limited to, Linux, Solaris, HP-UX and AIX.
Documentation
Documentation for these bindings is found in .php source files used
by doxygen. These
files are included in the full php-vas source download below as well
as in preformatted form for both HTML and manpage use in the documentation
tarball if you cannot or do not wish to install doxygen and build the
documentation yourself.
Requirements
You will need the following:
- some familiarity with building Linux/Unix software
- PHP and its SDK (often installed on Linux as php-devel or php-dev)
- VAS SDK (found on the VAS installation CD under the SDK directory)
- a C compiler and related toolchain (gcc, make, etc.)
- doxygen (optional)
- GNU auto tools (autoconf, automake) (optional)
The most important tool is phpize, found in the PHP SDK. More detailed information can found in the README file in the php-vas source package.
Licensing
The php-vas bindings and their source code are licensed freely for use and modification. However, most of the module's functionality derives from VAS, which requires separate, per-user licensing.
