        All of our client libraries are open source (Apache2 license). At present we use this open source project to build them.

        If you are interested in support for a language (let's say Lisp, because it's so cool 🙂 ), then take the following steps:

        • Search our github issues to make sure there isn't already a request (see C++ and Elixir).
        • If there is an issue present, vote for it.
        • If not, add one.

        If you want to take a crack at building the Lisp library, please file an issue as above and indicate your desire to help. How it works:

        • We start with a JSON DSL to define each API ( https://github.com/FusionAuth/fusionauth-client-builder/tree/master/src/main/api ).
        • We then build the code using a template, for example, here is the ruby template : https://github.com/FusionAuth/fusionauth-client-builder/blob/master/src/main/client/ruby.client.ftl
        • This ruby template then produces the ruby client: https://github.com/FusionAuth/fusionauth-ruby-client / https://github.com/FusionAuth/fusionauth-ruby-client/blob/master/lib/fusionauth/fusionauth_client.rb
        • So for Lisp, find the language most like it and then copy the client template (here's Ruby's), copy it to lisp.client.ftl and start hacking on it.
        • This lets us keep the Lisp client library current for each of the API calls and we can build a new client each time we release.
