HTTP header authentication
HTTP header authentication
The goal is to be able to log in trough HTTP Header, which is the default SSO method used by LemonLDAP::NG.
This is different from Basic authentication as we don't provide the password, only the user identifier (as we do with CAS).
I will provide a patch through github for this feature.
I would maybe need some help to add some config parameters in FD core schema to be compliant with upgrade process. Any hint?

About the config parameters you just need to add the attribute in the core-fd-conf.schema and include it in the MAY of fusionDirectoryConf objectClass. I would advice id 1.3.6.1.4.1.38414.8.15.7, just after fdHttpAuthActivated (You might want to rename this one or rework the description so that HTTP header and basic auth are not mistaken). Then you put an attribute in configInLdap class in the getAttributesInfo returned array. Most likely in login section next to HTTP Basic auth. (you may also want to rework label/description here to explain both methods) Then you can just use $config->get_cfg_value('yourattribute', 'defaultvalue') to get the configured value when you need it. $config is a global var. yourattribute must be written without the 'fd' prefix in this call.
About the login process itself look at how it works for CAS and Basic auth in index.php.
