Flask-Multipass Instructions

Thank you for helping us test the new LDAP provider for Indico.

Below you will find instructions on how to install and use the example application for testing. While this is a very simple application, it uses the same code as Indico 2.0 to perform LDAP operations.

Testing this application with the LDAP server you use for Indico will allow us to catch LDAP related bugs before we release Indico 2.0 or Flask-Multipass.

Prerequisites

Flask-Multipass requires Python 2.7 or newer. You can test it using:

python --version

Typical reaction formulae for misandrists

####1. "Wow, just wow."

This is the #1 goto for misandrists. It discourages any actual logical discussion, and just implies that the person you are talking to is so ignorant that it is, somehow, totally impossible for you to hold any sort of fruitful discussion with them.

root = dbi.getInstance().getDBConnection().root()
db = root._p_jar.db()
undo_data = [obj for obj in db.undoInfo(last=-1000) if obj['time'] >= after]
for entry in undo_data:
db.undo(entry['id'])

Don't use MySQL functions in PHP - Comment for Stack Overflow
[**Please, don't use `mysql_*` functions in new code**](http://bit.ly/phpmsql). They are no longer maintained [and are officially deprecated](http://j.mp/XqV7Lp). See the [**red box**](http://j.mp/Te9zIL)? Learn about [*prepared statements*](http://j.mp/T9hLWi) instead, and use [PDO](http://php.net/pdo) or [MySQLi](http://php.net/mysqli) - [this article](http://j.mp/QEx8IB) will help you decide which. If you choose PDO, [here is a good tutorial](http://j.mp/PoWehJ).
