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 or ../target/release/cedar --help. The sub-folder sample-data contains examples for the CLI. Please refer to the instructions in README.md or command.txt to run the examples.
