mod_http_oauth2: Add role selector to consent page
List includes all roles available to the user, if more than one.
Defaults to either the first role in the scope string or the users
primary role.
Earlier draft listed all roles, but having options that can't be
selected is bad UX and the entire list of all roles on the server could
be long, and perhaps even sensitive.
Allows e.g. picking a role with fewer permissions than what might
otherwise have been selected.
UX wise, doing this with more checkboxes or possibly radio buttons would
have been confusion and/or looked messier.
Fixes the previous situation where unselecting a role would default to
the primary role, which could be more permissions than requested.

--- labels: summary: Library module for LDAP ... Introduction ============ This module is used by other modules to access an LDAP server. It's pretty useless on its own; you should use it if you want to write your own LDAP-related module, or if you want to use one of mine ([mod\_auth\_ldap2](mod_auth_ldap2.html), [mod\_storage\_ldap](mod_storage_ldap.html)). Installation ============ Simply copy ldap.lib.lua into your Prosody installation's plugins directory. Configuration ============= Configuration for this module (and all modules that use it) goes into the *ldap* section of your prosody.cfg.lua file. Each plugin that uses it may add their own sections; this plugin relies on the following keys: - hostname - Where your LDAP server is located - bind\_dn - The DN to perform queries as - bind\_password - The password to use for queries - use\_tls - Whether or not TLS should be used to connect to the LDAP server - user.usernamefield - The LDAP field that contains a user's username - user.basedn - The base DN for user records API === ldap.getconnection() -------------------- Returns an LDAP connection object corresponding to the configuration in prosody.cfg.lua. The connection object is a [LuaLDAP](http://www.keplerproject.org/lualdap/) connection. ldap.getparams() ---------------- Returns the LDAP configuration provided in prosody.cfg.lua. Use this if you want to stick some configuration information for your module into the LDAP section in the configuration file. ldap.bind(username, password) ----------------------------- Verifies that *username* and *password* bind ok. **NOTE**: This does not bind the current LDAP connection to the given username! ldap.singlematch(query) ----------------------- Used to fetch a single LDAP record given an LDAP query. A convenience function. ldap.filter.combine\_and(...) ----------------------------- Takes a list of LDAP filter expressions and returns a filter expression that results in the intersection of each given expression (it ANDs them together). More Information ================ For more information, please consult the README.html file under prosody-modules/mod\_lib\_ldap.
