history

Project history and usage

godap is a Go terminal user interface for LDAP, with a strong focus on Active Directory browsing and administration. It combines LDAP bind options, tree browsing, searches, group membership work, deleted-object inspection, DACL editing, GPO viewing, ADIDNS operations, and export workflows in a single TUI.

Project history

The public GitHub repository was created in December 2023. The README describes godap as a complete terminal user interface for LDAP and lists authentication support for passwords, NTLM hashes, Kerberos tickets, and PEM or PKCS#12 certificates.

The project grew quickly through the 2.x release line. Its README calls it a fun side project that became useful, and the release history shows frequent 2.10.x maintenance and feature releases through 2025 and early 2026.

Adoption history

godap's adoption is visible through security and directory-service packaging channels rather than broad language-runtime ecosystems. The README says community members published working releases in Homebrew, Alpine Linux community, and Arch AUR, while upstream provides automated releases for several platforms.

GitHub repository metadata showed hundreds of stars by June 2026, consistent with a specialized but visible tool for LDAP and Active Directory operators.

How it is used

Typical usage is `godap <hostname or IP>` with bind flags for username and password, NTLM hash, Kerberos ticket, certificate, anonymous bind, LDAPS, StartTLS, or SOCKS proxy. The README and wiki document in-session connection changes, reconnects, TLS upgrades, paging, formatting, colors, expanded attributes, and deleted-object controls.

godap is interactive by design: users navigate LDAP trees, search objects, inspect and edit attributes, manage groups, export data, and perform Active Directory-specific operations from terminal keybindings.

Why package nerds care

Package nerds care about godap because it is a modern Go TUI packaged for a niche operational workflow. It shows how security and infrastructure tools often move from GitHub releases to Homebrew, Alpine, and AUR once operators want repeatable workstation installs.

It also has unusually rich credential and transport surfaces for a CLI package, which matters to packagers and users checking docs for Kerberos, certificates, LDAPS, StartTLS, SOCKS, and Active Directory behavior.
