Installing RethinkDB client drivers
Official drivers
Current community-supported drivers
These drivers have been updated to use the JSON driver protocol and at least RethinkDB 2.0 ReQL.
Drivers with limited features
These drivers may not support all of RethinkDB 2.0's ReQL. However, if you wish to work with one of these languages, they may provide a good starting point.
Note that both the official JavaScript driver and neumino’s “rethinkdbdash” driver are designed to work with Node.js.
