ubuntu/openfga is a rock for openfga maintained by Canonical.
A high-performance and flexible authorization/permission engine built for developers and inspired by Google Zanzibar. OpenFGA is designed to make it easy for developers to model their application permissions and add and integrate fine-grained authorization into their applications. It allows in-memory data storage for quick development, as well as pluggable database modules.

This rock's entrypoint is Pebble, a container-optimized init process that enables the orchestration of a collection of local service processes as an organized set.
To view the Pebble services and checks defined in this rock:
docker run --rm ubuntu/openfga:1-22.04_stable plan
To run this rock, use any of the usual container runtimes, for example, docker:
docker run --name openfga-container \
-p 8080:8080 -p 8081:8081 -p 3000:3000 -p 2112:2112 \
ubuntu/openfga:1-22.04_stable
Access the API either on http via http://localhost:8080 or grpc on localhost:8081, UI playground on http://localhost:3000. Prometheus metrics are available at http://localhost:2112/metrics.
To view the logs of the running container, run:
docker exec openfga-container pebble logs
Or, for a specific service:
docker exec openfga-container pebble logs <service>
Rocks may have predefined health checks that you can list by running:
docker exec openfga-container pebble checks
The overall health of your container can be inspected via:
docker exec openfga-container pebble health
