From DOC:

If you want to specify your own parser you can override the default parser as follows:

const ad = new ActiveDirectory({ url: 'ldap://dc.domain.com',
                               baseDN: 'dc=domain,dc=com',
                               username: 'username@domain.com',
                               password: 'password',
                               attributes: {
                                   user: ['dn']
                              }      
});

I get the error:

Type '["dn"]' is not assignable to type '["dn", "distinguishedName", "userPrincipalName", "sAMAccountName", "mail", "lockoutTime", "whenCreated", "pwdLastSet", "userAccountControl", "employeeID", "sn", "givenName", ... 4 more ..., "description"]'.

Is it a bug ? Thanks

I think you might be using the Types from @types/activedirectory2.
It has loaded some types by default and prevents such overriding.

Two options:

1. If you can, just remove the @types/activedirectoy2 package from your project and try again.
   You won't get the typings but such overriding will work.
2. Just add the attribute you are looking for in the index file (where the attributes are defined) of the @types/activedirectory2 package in your node_modules folder.
