Can a spring ldap repository project access two different ldap directories? -

i trying create spring rest application return values may come 2 different ldap directory servers. possible using spring ldap repositories? possible create more 1 ldaptemplate , contextsource can query both directories?

you can configure separate ldaptemplate , contextsource beans each ldap directory.

you can refer following basic configuration (javaconfig);

@configuration @enableldaprepositories(basepackages = "com.foo.ldap1.repositories", ldaptemplateref="ldaptemplate1") public class ldap1configuration {      @autowired     environment env;      @bean     public ldapcontextsource contextsource1() {         ldapcontextsource contextsource= new ldapcontextsource();         contextsource.seturl(env.getrequiredproperty("ldap1.url"));         contextsource.setbase(env.getrequiredproperty("ldap1.base"));         contextsource.setuserdn(env.getrequiredproperty("ldap1.user"));         contextsource.setpassword(env.getrequiredproperty("ldap1.password"));         return contextsource;     }      @bean(name="ldaptemplate1")     public ldaptemplate ldaptemplate1() {         return new ldaptemplate(contextsource1());             } } 

@configuration @enableldaprepositories(basepackages = "com.foo.ldap2.repositories", ldaptemplateref="ldaptemplate2") public class ldap2configuration {     @bean     public ldapcontextsource contextsource2() {         ldapcontextsource contextsource= new ldapcontextsource();         contextsource.seturl(env.getrequiredproperty("ldap2.url"));         contextsource.setbase(env.getrequiredproperty("ldap2.base"));         contextsource.setuserdn(env.getrequiredproperty("ldap2.user"));         contextsource.setpassword(env.getrequiredproperty("ldap2.password"));         return contextsource;     }      @bean(name="ldaptemplate2")     public ldaptemplate ldaptemplate2() {         return new ldaptemplate(contextsource2());             }  } 

then can refer each instance in application per following;

@autowired @qualifier("ldaptemplate1") private ldaptemplate ldaptemplate1; 

@autowired @qualifier("ldaptemplate2") private ldaptemplate ldaptemplate2; 

side note; if number of ldap directories increases better implement ldaptemplate factory takes connection details , returns ldaptemplate instances (example).
