+
+Active Directory authentication plugin for Verdaccio
+
+## Installation
+
+```bash
+npm install -g @verdaccio/active-directory
+```
+
+## Config
+
+This settings can be set in `config.yaml`. All fields are mandatory except `groupName`, which is optional, to add security group(s). Also, this optional field can be a single string or a list of strings. Take care that, when defining `groupName` key, the user that will be authenticating must be in, at least, one of the groups defined, to authenticate successfully.
+
+```yaml
+auth:
+  activedirectory:
+    url: 'ldap://localhost'
+    baseDN: 'dc=local,dc=host'
+    domainSuffix: 'local.host'
+    # groupName: 'singleGroup' # optional, single group syntax
+    # groupName:               # optional, multiple groups syntax
+    #   - 'group1'
+    #   - 'group2'
+```
+
+## Inspiration
+
+This plugin is based on [verdaccio-activedirectory](https://github.com/nowhammies/verdaccio-activedirectory), which is based on [siponia-activedirectory](https://github.com/ela-compil/sinopia-activedirectory).  
+Thanks to [Doug Dennie](https://github.com/nowhammies) and [Ela-compil sp. z o. o.](https://github.com/ela-compil) for making this possible.
