AGPL-3.0 or later

How to

Export the database of samba users with:

pdbedit -L -v > sam.txt

If not yet installed, install nodejs (with nvm I suggest), eg:

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/creationix/nvm/master/install.sh | bash
nvm install --lts

Install pdbparse:

npm install -g pdbparse

As a command:

Usage:

pdbparse [<input_file>] [-h|--help] [-u|--usernames] [-a|--active] [-d|--disabled] [-f|--filter 'return !user.account_flags.match(/D/)']

Convert with eg:

pdbparse sam.txt

Alternatively you can convert the json to csv with:

npm i -g json2csv
npm i -g equalizejson
pdbparse sam.txt | equalizejson | json2csv

As a module:

const pdbparse=require('pdbparse');
pdparse(var stream=process.stdin, var filter=((user) => {return true}))
.then((user_list) => {...})

... where "stream" is process.stdin by default or a filestream, and "filter" an optional filtering function.
