2) Change the below condition to check "is not None" instead which makes more sense.
+if not self.bind_user or not self.bind_pass:
"is not None" will not check empty strings. Though the default value is None but the user might set an empty string into config_local.py file.
A password can be empty. And setting this config var indicates the user wants to set it as its an optional config.
Yes, it's an optional config but if the user has set BIND_USER param then password is mandatory.
I agree that password is mandatory. But, one can have a blank password. Which also suggests maybe there should be some meaningful error thrown to the user if the user sets the username but not the password.
I have given the error message if the admin has only set the username and not the password though this message is not useful for normal users as this has been set by the admin.
Please find the attached patch for the RM 5484 - Support LDAP based auth also when users do not have the same DN structure.
Currently, pgAdmin only supports LDAP authentication with the same DN structure. With this patch, the LDAP authentication will also support the different DN by setting the dedicated user for the LDAP connection in the config file.
