SLIM SDK — Language Bindings
All bindings are maintained in agntcy/slim-bindings and generated from the same Rust core via UniFFI. The Go binding is distributed through a separate agntcy/slim-bindings-go module because Go's module system requires source hosting rather than a package registry.
Packages at a Glance
| Language | Package | Requirements | Install |
|---|---|---|---|
| Python | slim-bindings on PyPI |
Python 3.10+ | pip install slim-bindings |
| Go | github.com/agntcy/slim-bindings-go |
Go 1.23+, C compiler (CGO) | go get github.com/agntcy/slim-bindings-go |
| .NET | Agntcy.Slim on NuGet |
.NET 8.0+ | dotnet add package Agntcy.Slim |
| Java | slim-bindings-java on Maven Central |
Java 21+, Maven 3.8+, JNA | Maven dependency |
| Kotlin | slim-bindings-kotlin on Maven Central |
JDK 17+, JNA | Gradle dependency |
| Node.js | @agntcy/slim-bindings on npm |
Node.js 18+ | npm install @agntcy/slim-bindings |
| React Native | @agntcy/slim-bindings-react-native on npm |
iOS or Android | npm install @agntcy/slim-bindings-react-native |
Each language guide has the full installation steps for that binding — exact version pins, build-tool snippets, and any post-install work — alongside its API overview, transport authentication, and platform support.
Post-install steps
Two bindings need one more step after the package is installed. Go requires a one-time go run github.com/agntcy/slim-bindings-go/cmd/slim-bindings-setup to fetch native libraries, and React Native requires cd ios && pod install. See the Go and React Native guides.
Building from Source
To build the bindings from source:
git clone https://github.com/agntcy/slim-bindings
cd slim-bindings
# Build the Rust FFI library
cd rust && task build
# Build a specific binding (example: Python)
cd python && task build
Each language guide has the build steps for its own binding, and the README in each binding directory covers the full list of development tasks.
