Rewrite fusiondirectory-insert-schema based on ldap-config-manager

Perl tool ldap-schema-manager is replaced by PHP tool ldap-config-manager.

fusiondirectory-insert-schema should be rewritten to be based on ldap-config-manager but have an interface as close as possible to the previous one.

This means we need to add schema list support into ldap-config-manager which only accepts to insert schema one by one currently.

changed milestone to %FusionDirectory 1.4

added PJ1802-0188 fusiondirectory-insert-schema labels

created merge request !834 to address this issue

This is mostly done, the tool should work as well as before.

One exception is the --options parameter which is not supported anymore and cannot be supported in the same way. It should be replaced by options on how to contact/connect to the LDAP server but this should be done on ldap-config-manager first.

@bmortier The CI is failing on manpage generation, which shows a problem: The man page was written as pod inside the perl code and it is not anymore. Where should this content be moved to, in which format? Is Markdown appropriate for manpage and easy to translate?

@cchilliet,

our tools should be documented in the official schema2ldif manual [https://fusiondirectory-user-manual.readthedocs.io/en/1.4/schema2ldif/index.html] i will look how to best do this

Cheers

schema2ldif is most likely gonna be deleted, or at least it will lose importance since ldap-config-manager does not rely on it.

I think the project should be renamed to ldap-config-manager.

Regarding documentation, of course we can document on readthedocs, but how do we handle manpages? Is it possible to build a manpage from a readthedocs page? (I guess so since readthedocs pages are rst documents)

i agree we should erase it if ldap-config-manager does what schema2ldif does

agreed

there is a target make man in sphinx so it should work

To be clear: ldap-config-manager does not do what schema2ldif does, which is converting myschema.schema to myschema.ldif. What ldap-config-manager can do is inserting myschema.schema, or myschema.ldif (both format are supported) into cn=config.

So, schema2ldif may still be useful for people which do not want to use ldap-config-manager and want to convert from .schema to .ldif before inserting with ldapadd or such. But that is not something we need anymore.

Bind options were added to ldap-config-manager in https://gitlab.fusiondirectory.org/fusiondirectory/ldap-configuration-manager/-/issues/1, they should be added to fusiondirectory-insert-schema as well.
