What is oso?

oso is an open source policy engine for authorization that’s embedded in your application. It provides a declarative policy language for expressing authorization logic. You define this logic separately from the rest of your application code, but it executes inside the application and can call directly into it. oso ships as a library with a built-in debugger and REPL.

Getting started

To get up and running with oso, check out the Getting Started guide in the oso documentation.

Development

Core

oso’s Rust core is developed against Rust’s latest stable release.

Language libraries

To build the WebAssembly core for the Node.js library, you will need to have wasm-pack installed and available on your system PATH.

Language requirements

To work on a language library, you will need to meet the following version requirements:
