SDK setup

Choose a HelixDB SDK and connect it to a local or Cloud server

Guide

Every HelixDB SDK builds the same operation-tree request and sends it to POST /v2/query, so the query guides apply to all four languages. Pick the SDK for your application’s language:

SDK	Package	HTTP client	Embedded runtime
Rust	helix-db (imported as helix_db)	Async	Yes, behind the embedded feature
TypeScript	@helix-db/helix-db (ESM, Node.js 20+)	Async	Yes
Go	github.com/helixdb/helix-db/sdks/go	Yes	Not yet
Python	helix-db (imported as helixdb)	Sync and async	Yes, with helix-db-embedded

Rust

Typed DSL, #[query] macro, and async HTTP client.

TypeScript

Typed DSL and async client for Node.js 20 or newer.

Go

Query builder and HTTP client.

Python

Synchronous and asynchronous clients.

Next steps

After setup, the query walkthrough builds and runs a first query, and the query guides cover reads, writes, traversals, filtering, projections, parameters, and search in every language.
