Hello, fellow hackers! Author of LDAP DN here.

Recently, I was working on a legacy PHP project that synchronises LDAP teams and users. I found several bugs relating to poor DN “parsing” using regexes and string replacement.

There has to be a better way of doing it, I thought. Alas, there’s not much choice in the PHP ecosystem when it comes to parsing DNs. While there are a few libraries and even PHP’s own `ldap_explode_dn()`, I think they don’t have clean APIs.

So I wrote LDAP DN. It breaks down DNs into RDNs and attributes, supports escaping, allows basic manipulation and has 100% test coverage.

Let me know what you think!
