Description: Bonsai
        ======
        
        This is a module for handling LDAP operations in Python. Uses libldap2 on Unix platforms and WinLDAP 
        on Microsoft Windows. LDAP entries are mapped to a special Python case-insensitive dictionary,
        tracking the changes of the dictionary to modify the entry on the server easily.
        
        Support only Python 3.3 or newer, and LDAPv3. 
        
        Requirements for building
        -------------------------
        
        - python3.3-dev or newer
        - libldap2-dev
        - libsasl2-dev
        
        
        Features
        --------
        
        * Uses LDAP libraries (OpenLDAP and WinLDAP) written in C for faster processing.
        * Simple pythonic design.
        * Implements an own dictionary-like object for mapping LDAP entries that makes easier to add and modify them.
        * Works with various asynchronous library (like asyncio, gevent).
        
        Example
        -------
        
        Simple search and modify:
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
            import bonsai
        
            client = bonsai.LDAPClient("ldap://localhost")
            client.set_credentials("SIMPLE", ("cn=admin,dc=local", "secret"))
            with client.connect() as conn:
                res = conn.search("ou=nerdherd,dc=local", 2, "(cn=chuck)")
                res[0]['givenname'] = "Charles"
                res[0]['sn'] = "Carmichael"
                res[0].modify()
        
        
        Using with asnycio:
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
            import asyncio
            import bonsai
        
            @asyncio.coroutine
            def do():
                client = bonsai.LDAPClient("ldap://localhost")
                client.set_credentials("DIGEST-MD5", ("admin", "secret", None, None))
                with (yield from client.connect(async=True)) as conn:
                    res = yield from conn.search("ou=nerdherd,dc=local", 2)
                    print(res)
                    who = yield from conn.whoami()
                    print(who)
