Experimental AWS ApiGateway Authorizer Go Lambda with embedded Open Policy Agent

sls-lambda-opa

Experiment embedding Open Policy Agent (https://www.openpolicyagent.org/) within a GoLang Api Gateway Authorizer Lambda function, deployed via Serverless framework. See this for info on AWS Api Gateway Authorizer Lambdas: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/apigateway/latest/developerguide/apigateway-use-lambda-authorizer.html

Install

1. go https://golang.org/doc/install#install
2. dep https://github.com/golang/dep
3. serverless.com framework and configure for aws lambda https://serverless.com/framework/docs/providers/aws/guide/installation/
4. Pull this repo and chmod 755 *.sh

Deploy

./slsDeploy.sh

This will compile the go files, and then deploy 3 Lambdas and associated API gateway.

• opacheck (the authorizer)
• gold target (accessible to gold role only (?role=gold)
• silver target (accessible to silver and gold roles)

Test

Tail logs as below in one shell, and then use some of the following:

curl -H Authorization:allow https://[apiId].execute-api.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/dev/gold?role=gold
curl -H Authorization:allow https://[apiId].execute-api.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/dev/silver?role=gold
curl -H Authorization:allow https://[apiId].execute-api.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/dev/gold?role=silver

The OPA policy in summary is:

• deny by default
• role 'gold' can access /silver and /gold
• role 'silver' can access /silver but not /gold
• other roles cannot access either
