This is script that can sync users from a mysql database and a freeipa server. The script should run on the freeipa server. The mysql database contains the username and the password and the email adress of the user. The password is managed in freeipa.
import mysql.connector
from ipalib import api
from ipalib import errors
# MySQL database configuration
mysql_config = {
'user': '<mysql_user>',
'password': '<mysql_password>',
'host': '<mysql_host>',
'database': '<mysql_database>'
}
# FreeIPA server configuration
ipa_config = {
'user': '<ipa_user>',
'password': '<ipa_password>',
'host': '<ipa_host>'
}
def get_users_from_mysql():
# Connect to the MySQL database
conn = mysql.connector.connect(**mysql_config)
cursor = conn.cursor()
# Select all users from the MySQL database
cursor.execute('SELECT username, password, email FROM users')
users = cursor.fetchall()
# Close the database connection
cursor.close()
conn.close()
return users
def create_user_in_ipa(username, password, email):
try:
# Connect to the FreeIPA server
api.bootstrap(context='cli')
api.finalize()
# Create the user in FreeIPA
api.Command['user_add'](username, givenname=username, sn=' ', mail=email, userpassword=password)
print('User {} created in FreeIPA'.format(username))
except errors.DuplicateEntry:
print('User {} already exists in FreeIPA'.format(username))
except Exception as e:
print('Failed to create user {} in FreeIPA: {}'.format(username, str(e)))
def sync_users():
# Get the users from the MySQL database
users = get_users_from_mysql()
# Create or update the users in FreeIPA
for user in users:
username = user[0]
password = user[1]
email = user[2]
create_user_in_ipa(username, password, email)
if __name__ == '__main__':
sync_users()
Note that you will need to replace <mysql_user>, <mysql_password>, <mysql_host>, <mysql_database>, <ipa_user>, <ipa_password>, and <ipa_host> with the appropriate values for your environment.
The script first defines the MySQL database configuration and FreeIPA server configuration. It then defines two functions: get_users_from_mysql() which connects to the MySQL database and retrieves all the users, and create_user_in_ipa() which creates or updates a user in FreeIPA.
The sync_users() function uses get_users_from_mysql() to retrieve all the users from the MySQL database, and then calls create_user_in_ipa() to create or update the user in FreeIPA.
Finally, the script calls sync_users() to synchronize the users between the MySQL database and the FreeIPA server.
