.SH DESCRIPTION
.I ldapurl
is a command that allows one to either compose or decompose LDAP URIs.
.LP
When invoked with the \fB\-H\fP option,
.B ldapurl
extracts the components of the \fIldapuri\fP option argument,
unescaping hex-escaped chars as required.
It basically acts as a frontend to the
.BR ldap_url_parse (3)
call.
Otherwise, it builds an LDAP URI based on the components
passed with the appropriate options, performing the inverse operation.
Option \fB\-H\fP is incompatible with options
.BR \-a ,
.BR \-b ,
.BR \-E ,
.BR \-f ,
.BR \-H ,
.BR \-h ,
.BR \-p ,
.BR \-S ,
and
.BR \-s .
.SH OPTIONS
.TP
.TP
.BI \-a \ attrs
Set a comma-separated list of attribute selectors.
.TP
.BI \-b \ searchbase
Set the \fIsearchbase\fP.
.TP
.BR \-e \ [ ! ] \fIext\fP [ =\fIextparam\fP ]

Specify general extensions with \fB\-e\fP
\'\fB!\fP\' indicates criticality.

General extensions:
.nf
  [!]assert=<filter>    (an RFC 4515 Filter)
  !authzid=<authzid>    ("dn:<dn>" or "u:<user>")
  [!]bauthzid           (RFC 3829 authzid control)
  [!]chaining[=<resolve>[/<cont>]]
  [!]manageDSAit
  [!]noop
  ppolicy
  [!]postread[=<attrs>] (a comma-separated attribute list)
  [!]preread[=<attrs>]  (a comma-separated attribute list)
  [!]relax
  sessiontracking[=<username>]
  abandon,cancel,ignore (SIGINT sends abandon/cancel,
  or ignores response; if critical, doesn't wait for SIGINT.
  not really controls)
.fi

.TP
.BR \-E \ [ ! ] \fIext\fP [ =\fIextparam\fP ]
Set URL extensions; incompatible with
.BR \-H .
.TP
.BI \-f \ filter
Set the URL filter.  No particular check on conformity with RFC 4515
LDAP filters is performed, but the value is hex-escaped as required.
.TP
.BI \-H \ ldapuri
Specify URI to be exploded.
.TP
.BI \-h \ ldaphost
Set the host.
.TP
.BI \-p \ ldapport
Set the TCP port.
.TP
.BI \-S \ scheme
Set the URL scheme.  Defaults for other fields, like \fIldapport\fP,
may depend on the value of \fIscheme\fP.
.TP
.BR \-s \ { base \||\| one \||\| sub \||\| children }
Specify the scope of the search to be one of
.BR base ,
.BR one ,
.BR sub ,
or
.B children
to specify a base object, one-level, subtree, or children search.
The default is
.BR sub .
Note:
.B children
scope requires LDAPv3 subordinate feature extension.

.SH OUTPUT FORMAT
If the \fB\-H\fP option is used, the \fIldapuri\fP supplied
is exploded in its components, which are printed to standard output
in an LDIF-like form.
.LP
Otherwise, the URI built using the values passed with the other options
is printed to standard output.
.SH EXAMPLE
The following command:
.LP
.nf
    ldapurl \-h ldap.example.com \-b dc=example,dc=com \-s sub \-f "(cn=Some One)"
.fi
.LP
returns
.LP
.nf
    ldap://ldap.example.com:389/dc=example,dc=com??sub?(cn=Some%20One)
.fi
.LP
The command:
.LP
.nf
    ldapurl \-H ldap://ldap.example.com:389/dc=example,dc=com??sub?(cn=Some%20One)
.fi
.LP
returns
.LP
.nf
    scheme: ldap
    host: ldap.example.com
    port: 389
    dn: dc=example,dc=com
    scope: sub
    filter: (cn=Some One)
.fi
.LP
