Zend_Ldap_Node includes the magic property accessors __set(), __get(), __unset() and __isset() to access the attributes by their name. They proxy to Zend_Ldap_Node::setAttribute(), Zend_Ldap_Node::getAttribute(), Zend_Ldap_Node::deleteAttribute() and Zend_Ldap_Node::existsAttribute() respectively. Furthermore the class implements ArrayAccess for array-style-access to the attributes. Zend_Ldap_Node also implements Iterator and RecursiveIterato to allow for recursive tree-traversal. Method Description Zend_Ldap getLdap() Returns the current LDAP connection. Throws Zend_Ldap_Exception if current node is in detached mode (not connected to a Zend_Ldap instance). Zend_Ldap_Node attachLdap(Zend_Ldap $ldap) Attach the current node to the $ldap Zend_Ldap instance. Throws Zend_Ldap_Exception if $ldap is not responsible for the current node (node is not a child of the $ldap base DN). Zend_Ldap_Node detachLdap() Detach node from LDAP connection. boolean isAttached() Checks if the current node is attached to a LDAP connection. Zend_Ldap_Node create(string|array|Zend_Ldap_Dn $dn, array $objectClass) Factory method to create a new detached Zend_Ldap_Node for a given DN. Creates a new Zend_Ldap_Node with the DN $dn and the object-classes $objectClass. Zend_Ldap_Node fromLdap(string|array|Zend_Ldap_Dn $dn, Zend_Ldap $ldap) Factory method to create an attached Zend_Ldap_Node for a given DN. Loads an existing Zend_Ldap_Node with the DN $dn from the LDAP connection $ldap. Zend_Ldap_Node fromArray((array $data, boolean $fromDataSource) Factory method to create a detached Zend_Ldap_Node from array data $data. if $fromDataSource is TRUE (FALSE by default), the data is treated as beeing present in a LDAP tree. boolean isNew() Tells if the node is consiedered as new (not present on the server). Please note, that this doesn't tell if the node is really present on the server. Use Zend_Ldap_Node::exists() to see if a node is already there. boolean willBeDeleted() Tells if this node is going to be deleted once Zend_Ldap_Node::update() is called. Zend_Ldap_Node delete() Marks this node as to be deleted. Node will be deleted on calling Zend_Ldap_Node::update() if Zend_Ldap_Node::willBeDeleted() is TRUE. boolean willBeMoved() Tells if this node is going to be moved once Zend_Ldap_Node::update() is called. Zend_Ldap_Node update(Zend_Ldap $ldap) Sends all pending changes to the LDAP server. If $ldap is omitted the current LDAP connection is used. If the current node is detached from a LDAP connection a Zend_Ldap_Exception will be thrown. If $ldap is provided the current node will be attached to the given LDAP connection. Zend_Ldap_Dn getCurrentDn() Gets the current DN of the current node as a Zend_Ldap_Dn. This does not reflect possible rename-operations. Zend_Ldap_Dn getDn() Gets the original DN of the current node as a Zend_Ldap_Dn. This reflects possible rename-operations. string getDnString(string $caseFold) Gets the original DN of the current node as a string. This reflects possible rename-operations. array getDnArray(string $caseFold) Gets the original DN of the current node as an array. This reflects possible rename-operations. string getRdnString(string $caseFold) Gets the RDN of the current node as a string. This reflects possible rename-operations. array getRdnArray(string $caseFold) Gets the RDN of the current node as an array. This reflects possible rename-operations. Zend_Ldap_Node setDn(Zend_Ldap_Dn|string|array $newDn) Sets the new DN for this node effectively moving the node once Zend_Ldap_Node::update() is called. Zend_Ldap_Node move(Zend_Ldap_Dn|string|array $newDn) This is an alias for Zend_Ldap_Node::setDn(). Zend_Ldap_Node rename(Zend_Ldap_Dn|string|array $newDn) This is an alias for Zend_Ldap_Node::setDn(). array getObjectClass() Returns the objectClass of the node. Zend_Ldap_Node setObjectClass(array|string $value) Sets the objectClass attribute. Zend_Ldap_Node appendObjectClass(array|string $value) Appends to the objectClass attribute. string toLdif(array $options) Returns a LDIF representation of the current node. $options will be passed to the Zend_Ldap_Ldif_Encoder. array getChangedData() Gets changed node data. The array contains all changed attributes. This format can be used in Zend_Ldap::add() and Zend_Ldap::update(). array getChanges() Returns all changes made. string toString() Returns the DN of the current node - proxies to Zend_Ldap_Dn::getDnString(). string __toString() Casts to string representation - proxies to Zend_Ldap_Dn::toString(). array toArray(boolean $includeSystemAttributes) Returns an array representation of the current node. If $includeSystemAttributes is FALSE (defaults to TRUE) the system specific attributes are stripped from the array. Unlike Zend_Ldap_Node::getAttributes() the resulting array contains the DN with key 'dn'. string toJson(boolean $includeSystemAttributes) Returns a JSON representation of the current node using Zend_Ldap_Node::toArray(). array getData(boolean $includeSystemAttributes) Returns the node's attributes. The array contains all attributes in its internal format (no conversion). boolean existsAttribute(string $name, boolean $emptyExists) Checks whether a given attribute exists. If $emptyExists is FALSE empty attributes (containing only array()) are treated as non-existent returning FALSE. If $emptyExists is TRUE empty attributes are treated as existent returning TRUE. In this case the method returns FALSE only if the attribute name is missing in the key-collection. boolean attributeHasValue(string $name, mixed|array $value) Checks if the given value(s) exist in the attribute. The method returns TRUE only if all values in $value are present in the attribute. Comparison is done strictly (respecting the data type). integer count() Returns the number of attributes in the node. Implements Countable. mixed getAttribute(string $name, integer|null $index) Gets a LDAP attribute. Data conversion is applied using Zend_Ldap_Attribute::getAttribute(). array getAttributes(boolean $includeSystemAttributes) Gets all attributes of node. If $includeSystemAttributes is FALSE (defaults to TRUE) the system specific attributes are stripped from the array. Zend_Ldap_Node setAttribute(string $name, mixed $value) Sets a LDAP attribute. Data conversion is applied using Zend_Ldap_Attribute::setAttribute(). Zend_Ldap_Node appendToAttribute(string $name, mixed $value) Appends to a LDAP attribute. Data conversion is applied using Zend_Ldap_Attribute::setAttribute(). array|integer getDateTimeAttribute(string $name, integer|null $index) Gets a LDAP date/time attribute. Data conversion is applied using Zend_Ldap_Attribute::getDateTimeAttribute(). Zend_Ldap_Node setDateTimeAttribute(string $name, integer|array $value, boolean $utc) Sets a LDAP date/time attribute. Data conversion is applied using Zend_Ldap_Attribute::setDateTimeAttribute(). Zend_Ldap_Node appendToDateTimeAttribute(string $name, integer|array $value, boolean $utc) Appends to a LDAP date/time attribute. Data conversion is applied using Zend_Ldap_Attribute::setDateTimeAttribute(). Zend_Ldap_Node setPasswordAttribute(string $password, string $hashType, string $attribName) Sets a LDAP password on $attribName (defaults to 'userPassword') to $password with the hash type $hashType (defaults to Zend_Ldap_Attribute::PASSWORD_HASH_MD5). Zend_Ldap_Node deleteAttribute(string $name) Deletes a LDAP attribute. void removeDuplicatesFromAttribute(string$name) Removes duplicate values from a LDAP attribute. void removeFromAttribute(string $attribName, mixed|array $value) Removes the given values from a LDAP attribute. boolean exists(Zend_Ldap $ldap) Checks if the current node exists on the given LDAP server (current server is used if NULL is passed). Zend_Ldap_Node reload(Zend_Ldap $ldap) Reloads the current node's attributes from the given LDAP server (current server is used if NULL is passed). Zend_Ldap_Node_Collection searchSubtree(string|Zend_Ldap_Filter_Abstract $filter, integer $scope, string $sort) Searches the nodes's subtree with the given $filter and the given search parameters. See Zend_Ldap::search() for details on the parameters $scope and $sort. integer countSubtree(string|Zend_Ldap_Filter_Abstract $filter, integer $scope) Count the nodes's subtree items matching the given $filter and the given search scope. See Zend_Ldap::search() for details on the $scope parameter. integer countChildren() Count the nodes's children. Zend_Ldap_Node_Collection searchChildren(string|Zend_Ldap_Filter_Abstract $filter, string $sort) Searches the nodes's children matching the given $filter. See Zend_Ldap::search() for details on the $sort parameter. boolean hasChildren() Returns whether the current node has children. Zend_Ldap_Node_ChildrenIterator getChildren() Returns all children of the current node. Zend_Ldap_Node getParent(Zend_Ldap $ldap) Returns the parent of the current node using the LDAP connection $ldap (uses the current LDAP connection if omitted).
