Getting started with uropa

Once you’ve installed uropa, let’s get started with it.

You can find help in the terminal itself for any command using the -help flag.

Install Opa

Make sure you’ve Opa installed and have access to Opa’s Admin API. In this guide, we’re assuming that Opa is running at http://localhost:8181. Please change it to the network address where Opa is running in your case.

Create the configuration

Let’s create the Opa.yaml file now. We’re going to make the following changes:

# your Opa.yaml file should look like:
$ cat Opa.yaml
_format_version: "1.1"
policies:
  - id: example
    raw: |-
       package example
       default allow = false

Reset your configuration

Finally, you can reset the configuration of Opa using uropa. The changes performed by this command are irreversible(unless you’ve created a backup using uropa dump) so please be careful.

$ uropa reset
This will delete all configuration from Opa's database.

And that’s it. Start using uropa to declaratively configure your Opa installation today!
