[![LdapSaisie](src/images/default/logo.png)](https://ldapsaisie.org)
LdapSaisie is a Web application developed to manage LDAP directory. It has been written in PHP / JavaScript and is published under the GNU GPL license. This application is designed to abstract the complexity of the directory through a simple and intuitive administration interface. It was designed with the objective of maximal modularity and easy extension or adaptation: you can use modules, extensions and plugins. LdapSaisie allows any system administrator to manage data stored inside a LDAP server, and thus administrate its information system in a simple manner. It's also possible to let users access their own data, with read-only or read-write access.

## Upgrade
### Using Debian packages
When using Debian packages, the upgrading process to pretty simple: just upgrade the package:
```
apt-get update
apt-get install ldapsaisie
```
Once the application has been updated, paid attention to new features and points of vigilance described in [official documentation](https://ldapsaisie.org/doc/all-in-one/LdapSaisie.html#upgrade) (in french).
### Using Git
When using git, you could use the `upgradeFromGit.sh` which automates the update if you have followed the installation procedure for it.
This script will then take care of:
* Clean the working-tree Git from the symbolic links of the local files (and possibly the theme) set up during a previous execution;
* Empty the template cache;
* Update the Git working-tree via a `git pull`;
* Install symbolic links for local files. In case of locally modified files, the script will notify you and will allow you to simply update your local file (via a `vim -d`);
* Detect changes in the MO files (translation) and in this case trigger a reload of the web server to be taken into account;
* Option: to compile an up-to-date local version of the documentation;
Once the application has been updated, paid attention to new features and points of vigilance described in [official documentation](https://ldapsaisie.org/doc/all-in-one/LdapSaisie.html#upgrade) (in french).
