Struct CedarConfig 

pub struct CedarConfig {
    pub enabled: bool,
    pub policy_path: PathBuf,
    pub hot_reload: bool,
    pub hot_reload_interval_secs: u64,
    pub cache_enabled: bool,
    pub cache_ttl_secs: u64,
    pub failure_mode: FailureMode,
}

Cedar authorization configuration

Configuration for AWS Cedar policy-based authorization. Cedar provides declarative, human-readable authorization policies with support for RBAC, ABAC, resource ownership, and attribute-based access control.

Example Configuration

[cedar]
enabled = true
policy_path = "policies/app.cedar"
hot_reload = false
hot_reload_interval_secs = 60
cache_enabled = true
cache_ttl_secs = 300
failure_mode = "closed"  # or "open"

Fields

enabled: bool

Enable Cedar authorization

policy_path: PathBuf

Path to Cedar policy file

hot_reload: bool

Enable policy hot-reload (watch file for changes) Note: Manual reload via endpoint is recommended in production

hot_reload_interval_secs: u64

Hot-reload check interval in seconds

cache_enabled: bool

Enable policy caching for performance (requires redis feature)

cache_ttl_secs: u64

Policy cache TTL in seconds

failure_mode: FailureMode

Failure mode for policy evaluation errors

• Closed: Deny requests when policy evaluation fails (strict, production)
• Open: Allow requests when policy evaluation fails (permissive, development)
