In IPA framework we don't properly convert to Python bool type and just
return a string (TRUE or FALSE). This can be seen with many boolean
attributes, like
Bool('idnsallowdynupdate?',
cli_name='dynamic_update',
label=_('Dynamic update'),
doc=_('Allow dynamic updates.'),
attribute=True,
default=False,
autofill=True
),
in 'ipa dnszone-show':
> > > api.Command.dnszone_show('ipa.test')['result']['idnsallowdynupdate']
['TRUE']
This is because we don't have the reverse (from LDAP to Python) mapping
for the LDAP boolean OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.7.
When Web UI asks for the entry, it gets back JSON output that contains
this 'TRUE' value:
"idnsallowdynupdate": [
"TRUE"
],
Add proper mapping from LDAP to Python bool type. With this, a simple
'checkbox' type can be used in Web UI instead of a complex radio-box
setup.
Note that when IPA API is asked to return raw values, 'TRUE' and 'FALSE'
still returned. These are the actual LDAP boolean attribute values. Care
needs to be done in tests:
- if output is from a command with --raw option, 'TRUE' or 'FALSE'
should be expected
- if output if from a normal (non-raw) command, True or False would be
returned

Ground rules on adding new schema Brand new schema, particularly when written specifically for IPA, should be added in share/*.ldif. Any new files need to be explicitly loaded in ipaserver/install/dsinstance.py. These simply get copied directly into the new instance schema directory. Existing schema (e.g. in an LDAP draft) may either be added as a separate ldif in share or as an update in the updates directory. The advantage of adding the schema as an update is if 389-ds ever adds the schema then the installation won't fail due to existing schema failing to load during bootstrap. If the new schema requires a new container then this should be added to install/bootstrap-template.ldif.
