How to get more search results than the server's sizelimit with Python LDAP?

I am using the python-ldap module to (amongst other things) search for groups, and am running into the server's size limit and getting a SIZELIMIT_EXCEEDED exception. I have tried both synchronous and asynchronous searches and hit the problem both ways.

You are supposed to be able to work round this by setting a paging control on the search, but according to the python-ldap docs these controls are not yet implemented for search_ext(). Is there a way to do this in Python? If the python-ldap library does not support it, is there another Python library that does?

Solution

Here are some links related to paging in python-ldap.

Documentation: http://www.python-ldap.org/doc/html/ldap-controls.html#ldap.controls.SimplePagedResultsControl
