# Home Assistant Configuration
Home Assistant configures ldap auth via the [Command Line Auth Provider](https://www.home-assistant.io/docs/authentication/providers/#command-line). The wiki mentions a script that can be used for LDAP authentication, but it doesn't work in the container version (it is lacking both `ldapsearch` and `curl` ldap protocol support). Thankfully LLDAP has a graphql API to save the day!
## Graphql-based Auth Script
The [auth script](lldap-ha-auth.sh) attempts to authenticate a user against an LLDAP server, using credentials provided via `username` and `password` environment variables. The first argument must be the URL of your LLDAP server, accessible from Home Assistant. You can provide an additional optional argument to confine allowed logins to a single group. The script will output the user's display name as the `name` variable, if not empty.
1. Copy the [auth script](lldap-ha-auth.sh) to your home assistant instance. In this example, we use `/config/lldap-ha-auth.sh`.
- Set the script as executable by running `chmod +x /config/lldap-ha-auth.sh`
2. Add the following to your configuration.yaml in Home assistant:
```yaml
homeassistant:
auth_providers:
# Ensure you have the homeassistant provider enabled if you want to continue using your existing accounts
- type: homeassistant
- type: command_line
command: /config/lldap-ha-auth.sh
# arguments: [<LDAP Host>, <regular user group>, <admin user group>, <local user group>]
# <regular user group>: Find users that has permission to access homeassistant, anyone inside
# this group will have the default 'system-users' permission in homeassistant.
#
# <admin user group>: Allow users in the <regular user group> to be assigned into 'system-admin' group.
# Anyone inside this group will not have the 'system-users' permission as only one permission group
# is allowed in homeassistant
#
# <local user group>: Users in the <local user group> (e.g., 'homeassistant_local') can only access
# homeassistant inside LAN network.
#
# Only the first argument is required. ["https://lldap.example.com"] allows all users to log in from
# anywhere and have 'system-users' permissions.
args: ["https://lldap.example.com", "homeassistant_user", "homeassistant_admin", "homeassistant_local"]
meta: true
```
3. Reload your config or restart Home Assistant
