# p11-kit [](https://github.com/p11-glue/p11-kit/actions?query=workflow%3Atest) [](https://coveralls.io/r/p11-glue/p11-kit) [](https://bestpractices.coreinfrastructure.org/en/projects/1627) p11-kit aims to solve problems with coordinating the use of [PKCS #11] by different components or libraries living in the same process, by providing a way to load and enumerate PKCS #11 modules, as well as a standard configuration setup for installing PKCS #11 modules in such a way that they're discoverable. # Documentation * [Main site](https://p11-glue.github.io/p11-glue/p11-kit.html) * [Manual](https://p11-glue.github.io/p11-glue/p11-kit/manual/) # Building To build and install p11-kit, you can use the following commands: ```console $ meson setup _build $ meson compile -C _build $ meson test -C _build # meson install -C _build ``` If you install it locally for testing purposes, you may want to specify `-Dsystemd=disabled -Dbash_completion=disabled` at the invocation of `meson _build`, to avoid installing files to the system locations. # Releases Releases are made available via the [primary github site](https://github.com/p11-glue/p11-kit/releases).
