Hi,

I am looking since a long time for a selfhosted tool that would allow the user to insert and visualize data in a hierarchycal structure (tree). Ideally custom schemas could be defined so that it can be also regarded as a rudimentary noSQL database. I've looked at the awesome-selfhosted page high and low for anything similar with no luck. Do you happen to know anything that could work? The best example for the functionality I am looking for is the open source desktop app treeline

Thanks for your inputs,

I never looked into LDAP, I will do so now, thanks. Hopefully there could be something out there starting from the right keywords

Most of what you'll find is user management and system administration, because LDAP is a common backend for user authentication &c at larger sites, but there's no reason it can't store arbitrary data. https://openldap.org/ slapd on the backend and maybe https://directory.apache.org/studio/ on the frontend. But since it's built around user authentication, it has layers of security and access control that really complicate understanding the actual system.

I see, it gets complicated enough for me, I cannot imagine for some of the other users I would like to target... I will probably look into it as a last resort. Thanks
