There are several language packages (Software Development Kits, SDKs) for Manta. The Node.js and Java SDKs are maintained by Joyent.
The Node.js SDK is used to develop and to test Manta. It is the most robust SDK available for Manta.
The Node.js SDK includes a command-line interface that provides several tools that let you work with Manta much as you would work with a Unix system. See the Getting Started tutorial for an introduction.
The documentation for using the Manta node.js package in node code, see the node-manta docs.
The Java SDK has feature parity with the Node.js SDK. However, if new features are released it may be late to implement them. It supports all object operations and HTTP signing.
The Java SDK is available as a Maven module. To use it add the following to your project's pom.xml:
<dependency>
<groupId>com.joyent.manta</groupId>
<artifactId>java-manta-client</artifactId>
<!-- replace this value with the specific version number -->
<version>LATEST</version>
</dependency>
You can find the source for Java SDK at https://github.com/TritonDataCenter/java-manta.
The Python SDK is a community-maintained package for Manta, providing
a "manta" package and mantash, a shell that lets you work with Manta in
a bash-like environment.
# Mantash single commands can be run like:
# mantash ls
# Or you can enter the mantash interactive shell and run commands from
# there. Let's do that:
$ mantash
[jill@us-east /jill/stor]$ ls
[jill@us-east /jill/stor]$ # our stor is empty
[jill@us-east /jill/stor]$ put numbers.txt ./ # upload local file
[jill@us-east /jill/stor]$ ls
numbers.txt
[jill@us-east /jill/stor]$ cat numbers.txt

The Ruby SDK is a client for communicating with Manta. It is effectively an HTTP(S) wrapper which handles required HTTP headers and performs some sanity checks. The Ruby SDK seeks to expose all of Manta's features in a thin low-abstraction client.
You can find the Ruby SDK at https://github.com/TritonDataCenter/ruby-manta.
The R SDK is an interactive client in the form of an R package, that exposes all of Manta's features, and supports R on Unix, Linux and Windows.
You can find the mantaRSDK at https://github.com/TritonDataCenter/mantaRSDK and Rbunyan at https://github.com/TritonDataCenter/Rbunyan.
Hadoop can natively access Manta over the network. Most major Hadoop FileSystem features are supported. This is a community driven project, so updates to it are dependent upon community involvement. The driver is available as a stand-alone jar file that can be dropped into a Hadoop or Apache Drill installation.
You can download the jar directory from the releases page on the project's github page or directly from Maven Central.
The PHP SDK supports all object operations. It is a community driven SDK, so updates to it are dependent upon community involvement. The SDK is available as a Packagist package and can be installed using Composer:
composer require joyent/php-manta
It has been tested in PHP 5.6, PHP 7.0 and HHVM.
You can find the source for PHP SDK at https://github.com/TritonDataCenter/php-manta.
There is a Perl module available via CPAN that supports object operations. It is a community driven module, so updates to it are dependent upon community involvement. The module is available on CPAN.
You can find the source for the Perl module at https://github.com/TritonDataCenter/Manta-Client.
The Go SDK for Manta is a combination SDK that provides support for Triton CloudAPI operations in addition to Manta API operations.
You can find the source for the Go Manta SDK at https://github.com/TritonDataCenter/triton-go.
The Erlang SDK for Manta is community-maintained SDK that has support for most file operations.
You can find the source for the Erlang SDK at https://github.com/TritonDataCenter/erlang-manta.
