OpenDJ Server

OpenDJ is an LDAPv3 compliant directory service, which has been developed for the Java platform, providing a high performance, highly available, and secure store for the identities managed by your organization. Its easy installation process, combined with the power of the Java platform makes OpenDJ the simplest, fastest directory to deploy and manage.

The project is led by ForgeRock who integrate the OpenAM, OpenIDM, OpenDJ, OpenICF, and OpenIG open source projects to provide a quality-assured ForgeRock Identity Platform. Support, professional services, and training are available for the Identity Platform, providing stability and safety for the management of your digital identities.

To find out more about the services ForgeRock provides, visit www.forgerock.com.

To view the OpenDJ project page, which also contains all of the documentation, visit https://forgerock.org/opendj/.

For a great place to start, take a look at the OpenDJ Install Guide.

Getting the OpenDJ Directory Server

You can obtain the OpenDJ software in one of two ways;

Download It

The easiest way to try OpenDJ is to download the binary file and follow the Installation Guide.

You can download either:

  1. An enterprise release build.
  2. The nightly build which contains the latest features and bug fixes, but may also contain in progress unstable features.

Build The Source Code

In order to build the project from the command line follow these steps:

Prepare your Environment

To build OpenDJ you will need the following installed on the machine you're going to build on:

Software Required Version
Java JDK Version 7 and above (see below)
Git 1.7.6 and above
Maven 3.0.4 and above

ForgeRock does not support the use of Java 9 for running OpenDJ in production.

You should also set the following environment variables for the majority of versions;

JAVA_HOME - set to the directory in which your SDK is installed
MAVEN_OPTS - When building with Java 7 set this to '-Xmx1g -XX:MaxPermSize=512m'. Java 8 and above does not support MaxPermSize so set this to '-Xmx1g'.

Getting the Code

The central project repository lives on the ForgeRock Bitbucket Server at https://stash.forgerock.org/projects/OPENDJ.

Mirrors exist elsewhere (for example GitHub) but all contributions to the project are managed by using pull requests to the central repository.

There are two ways to get the code - if you want to run the code unmodified you can clone the central repo (or a reputable mirror):

git clone https://stash.forgerock.org/scm/opendj/opendj.git

If, however, you are considering contributing bug fixes, enhancements, or modifying the code you should fork the project and then clone your private fork, as described below:

  1. Create an account on BackStage - You can use these credentials to create pull requests, report bugs, and download the enterprise release builds.
  2. Log in to the Bitbucket Server using your BackStage account credentials.
  3. Fork the opendj project. This will create a fork for you in your own area of Bitbucket Server. Click on your profile icon then select 'view profile' to see all your forks.
  4. Clone your fork to your machine.

Obtaining the code this way will allow you to create pull requests later.

Building the Code

The OpenDJ build process and dependencies are managed by Maven. The first time you build the project, Maven will pull down all the dependencies and Maven plugins required by the build, which can take a significant amount of time. Subsequent builds will be much faster!

$ cd $REPO_HOME/opendj
$ mvn clean install

The OpenDJ Directory Server binaries will be built in opendj-server-legacy/target/package

Getting Started With OpenDJ

ForgeRock provide a comprehensive set of documents for OpenDJ, including a installation guide.

Contributing

There are many ways to contribute to the OpenDJ project. You can contribute to the OpenDJ Docs Project, report or submit bug fixes, or contribute extensions such as custom authentication modules, authentication scripts, policy scripts, dev ops scripts, and more.

Versioning

ForgeRock produce an enterprise point release build. These builds use the versioning format X.0.0 (for example 3.0.0 or 4.0.0 would be enterprise releases) and are produced yearly. These builds are free to use for trials, proof of concept projects and so on. A license is required to use these builds in production.

Users with support contracts have access to sustaining releases that contain bug and security fixes. These builds use the versioning format 3.0.x. 3.0.1 and 3.5.1 for example, would both be sustaining releases. Users with support contracts also get access to quality-assured interim releases, such as the forthcoming OpenDJ 3.5.0.
