Parsec for users

How to use Parsec

On a system where Parsec is installed, it can easily be used with a Parsec Client Library. Those libraries communicate with the Parsec service and integrate with the rest of the software idiomatically.

Parsec Client Libraries are available in the following languages:

• Rust: See examples on how to use the BasicClient.
• C: support exists for using Parsec through the PSA Crypto API for a limited set of primitives. Non-PSA functionality is currently not supported.
• Java: both a native Parsec client, as well as a JCA implementation based on that client.
• Go: work in progress!
• Erlang: native Parsec client with both a high level API and a low level API. The low level API supports all Parsec API calls with protobuf specifications.

Also have a look at parsec-tool, a command-line client to access Parsec from the terminal.

Please contribute to add more Parsec Client Libraries in the languages that you want!
