## X-Pipe Java API

The X-Pipe API for Java allows you to use most of the X-Pipe functionality from Java applications:

- Create data stores and data sources
- Query and work with the contents of data sources
- Write and append to data sources

## Setup

Either install the [dependency](https://maven-badges.herokuapp.com/maven-central/io.xpipe/api) from Maven Central
using your favourite build tool or alternatively download the `xpipe-api.jar`, `xpipe-core.jar`, and `xpipe-beacon.jar`
from the [releases page](https://github.com/xpipe-io/xpipe_java/releases/latest) and add them to the classpath.
