📦 Package Overview

Authlink.Policy.Client.ServiceStack integrates Authlink’s Policy Decision Point (PDP) into ServiceStack services. It builds on Authlink.Policy.Client.Core and Authlink.Policy.Client.Http to provide:

  • A [RequiresPermission] attribute for Request DTOs
  • A PolicyPlugin that registers the HTTP client and (optionally) a global filter
  • Fail-closed enforcement (403 on Deny or errors)

🚀 Install

dotnet add package Authlink.Policy.Client.ServiceStack

Or via Package Manager:

PM> Install-Package Authlink.Policy.Client.ServiceStack

🔧 Purpose

This package makes it trivial to protect ServiceStack endpoints by:

  • Annotating Request DTOs with required permission keys and optional resource keys
  • Automatically calling the Authlink PDP over HTTP
  • Returning HTTP 403 for denied requests, without boilerplate

⚙️ Usage

1. Register the plugin in your AppHost.Configure

public override void Configure(Container container)
{
    // your auth providers...
    Plugins.Add(new PolicyPlugin(options =>
    {
        options.BaseUrl        = "https://authlink.co.za/api/v1";
        opt.ClientId = new Guid("11111111-2222-3333-4444-555555555555");
    }));
}

2. Decorate your Request DTOs

[RequiresPermission("invoice:create", "INVOICE")]
public class CreateInvoice : IReturn<InvoiceResponse>
{
    public string Description { get; set; }
}

Any request without the required permission (or on HTTP errors) returns 403 Forbidden.
