This container provides a freshly installed FreeIPA server freeipa.example.org for the realm EXAMPLE.ORG

It can be used for quick and easy experiments against a throwaway FreeIPA instance. For example:

podman run -i -t --rm -h freeipa.example.org mcb30/freeipa-tester sh

will give you an interactive shell in which you can try out FreeIPA commands:

sh-5.0# ipa user-add testuser
First name: Test
Last name: User
---------------------
Added user "testuser"
---------------------
  User login: testuser
  First name: Test
  Last name: User
  Full name: Test User
  Display name: Test User
  Initials: TU
  Home directory: /home/testuser
  GECOS: Test User
  Login shell: /bin/sh
  Principal name: [email protected]
  Principal alias: [email protected]
  Email address: [email protected]
  UID: 42000001
  GID: 42000001
  Password: False
  Member of groups: ipausers
  Kerberos keys available: False

The container can also be used to generate automated test data sets illustrating the behaviour of FreeIPA. For example, to create a FreeIPA user and capture the resulting LDAP data in LDIF format:

podman run -i -t --rm -h freeipa.example.org mcb30/freeipa-tester \
    "ipa user-add testuser --first Test --last User && \
     ldapsearch '(uid=testuser)'"

The container is published on Docker Hub as mcb30/freeipa-tester.
