Usage Examples

TypeScript

import { OPAClient } from "@styra/opa";

const opa = new OPAClient("http://opa-host:8181");

const path = "authz/allow";
const input = {
  subject: "alice",
  action: "read",
  resource: "/finance/reports/fy2038_budget.csv"
};
const result = await opa.evaluate(path, input);
console.log(result ? "allowed" : "denied");

Java

import com.styra.opa.OPAClient;
import com.styra.opa.OPAException;

OPAClient opa = new OPAClient("http://opa-host:8181");

java.util.Map<String,Object> input = java.util.Map.ofEntries(
    entry("subject", "alice"),
    entry("action", "read"),
    entry("resource", "/finance/reports/fy2038_budget.csv")
);

java.util.List<Object> violations;
boolean allowed;

try {
    allowed = opa.check("policy/allow", input);
    violations = opa.evaluate("policy/violations", input);
} catch (OPAException e ) {
    // Note that OPAException usually wraps other exception types, in
    // case you need to do more complex error handling.
    System.out.println("exception while making request against OPA: " + e);
    throw e; // crash the program
}

System.out.println("allowed: " + allowed);
System.out.println("violations: " + violations);

C#

using Styra.Opa;

private OpaClient opa = new OPAClient("http://opa-host:8181");

var input = new Dictionary<string, object>() {
    { "user", "alice" },
    { "action", "read" },
    {"resource", "/finance/reports/fy2038_budget.csv"},
};

var allowed = await opa.check("authz/allow", input);
var violations = await opa.evaluate<List<string>>("authz/violations", input);

Console.WriteLine("Allowed: " + allowed);
Console.WriteLine("Violations: " + violations);
