Cedar CLI

This package contains the Command Line Interface (CLI) for Cedar.

For more information about the Cedar language/project, please take a look at cedarpolicy.com. See also the cedar-policy package, which is the main public Rust API for Cedar.

This app uses the annotation @id("PID") as a simple way to define policy ids. This usage is not standard and annotations have custom use depending on the app.

Usage

CLI is a command line tool. It supports the following subcommands:

• authorize: Evaluate an authorization request
• evaluate: Evaluate a Cedar expression
• validate: Validate a policy set against a schema
• check-parse: Check that policies successfully parse
• link: Link a template
• format: Format a policy set
• help: Print this message or the help of the given subcommand(s)

Build

You will need to install Rust, via rustup.

To build the CLI, run cargo build or cargo build --release.

Run

To run the CLI, try cargo run -- --help. The sub-folder sample-data contains examples for the CLI. Please refer to the instructions in each README.md to run the examples.
