ldifsearch — search LDIF with LDAP filters

Synopsis

ldifsearch {options} source filter [attributes …]

This utility can be used to perform search operations against entries contained in an LDIF file.

If standard input is used to specify source, end your input with EOF (Ctrl+D on UNIX, Ctrl+Z on Windows).

The ldifsearch command takes the following options:

Command options:

-A | --typesOnly: Only retrieve attribute names but not their values. Default: false

-o | --outputLdif {file}: Write search results to {file} instead of stdout. Default: stdout
-s | --searchScope {searchScope}: Search scope ('base', 'one', 'sub', or 'subordinates'). Note: 'subordinates' is an LDAP extension that might not work with all LDAP servers. Default: sub
-z | --sizeLimit {sizeLimit}: Maximum number of entries to return from the search. Default: 0

Utility input/output options:

-t | --wrapColumn {wrapColumn}: Maximum length of an output line (0 for no wrapping). Default: 0
