 Installation
 ============
 
-At the command line::
+Using pip
+---------
+Use::
 
-    $ pip install python-redfish
+    sudo pip install python-redfish
 
-Or, if you have virtualenvwrapper installed::
+Pip will install :
+
+1. The library and all dependencies into your site-packages directory
+2. Redfish client master conf file into /etc/redfish_client.conf
+3. Data file (templates) into /usr/share/redfish-client/templates
+
+Point 2 and 3 above need root access to your system. If you don't have root
+access on your system, please follow `Using pip and virtualenv`_ section.
+
+
+Using pip and virtualenv
+------------------------
+
+1. Install virtualenv and virtualenvwrapper:
+
+ Fedora 22::
+
+    dnf install python-virtualenv.noarch python-virtualenvwrapper.noarch
+
+ Ubuntu 15.04::
+
+    apt-get install python-virtualenv virtualenvwrapper
+
+2. Source virtualenvwrapper.sh::
+
+    . /usr/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh
+
+ or::
+
+    . /usr/share/virtualenvwrapper/virtualenvwrapper.sh
+
+3. Create a redfish virtual environement::
+
+    mkvirtualenv redfish
+
+4. Install using pip::
+
+    pip install python-virtualenv
+
+ All files are installed under your virtualenv.
+
+Using the sources
+-----------------
+
+#. Follow `get the sources <http://pythonhosted.org/python-redfish/readme.html#get-the-sources>`_ section to retrieve the sources.
+#. Install from the source using::
+
+    python setup.py install
+
+
+Using rpm package
+-----------------
+
+There is currently no oficial packages for distributions.
+However part of the sources there is a mechanism to buil rpm or deb packages for distributions.
+
+The mechanism is based on `project builder <http://www.project-builder.org/>`_ tool.
+
+#. Follow `get the sources <http://pythonhosted.org/python-redfish/readme.html#get-the-sources>`_ section to retrieve the sources.
+#. Download project builder for your distribution from ftp://ftp.project-builder.org.
+#. Clone the project to your own github account.
+#. Create a .pbrc with the following containt::
+
+    [uggla@ugglalaptop ~]$ cat .pbrc
+    pbdefdir python-redfish = $ENV{'HOME'}/workspace
+    pbconfdir python-redfish = $ENV{'HOME'}/workspace/python-redfish/pbconf
+    pbconfurl python-redfish = git+ssh://git@github.com:uggla/python-redfish.git
+    pburl python-redfish = git+ssh://git@github.com:uggla/python-redfish.git
+#. Build the project::
+
+    pb -p python-redfish sbx2pkg
+
+#. All packages (srpm/rpm) should be available into the build directory, then install the package using rpm::
+
+    rpm -Uvh python-redfish/build/RPMS/python-redfish-devel20160213182552.rpm
+
+
+#. Follow `get the sources <http://pythonhosted.org/python-redfish/readme.html#get-the-sources>`_ section to retrieve the sources.
+
+Using deb package
+-----------------
+
+This installation in yet possible due to missing deb package dependencies. We are working on it.
+
+In the meantime we recommend to use `Using pip`_ or `Using pip and virtualenv`_.
+
+=====================================
+Host configuration file configuration
+=====================================
+
+#. Verify redfish-client is working correclty::
+
+    redfish-client.py -h
+
+#. Create a default entry to use the mockup::
+
+    redfish-client.py config add default default http://localhost:8000/redfish/v1
+
+#. Verify the entry is correctly registered::
+
+    redfish-client.py config showall
+
+===================
+Mockup installation
+===================
+
+#. Follow `get the sources <http://pythonhosted.org/python-redfish/readme.html#get-the-sources>`_ section to retrieve the sources.
+#. Install docker using your distribution packages or the docker `procedure <https://docs.docker.com/engine/installation/>`_ (docker provide more recent packages for ubuntu)::
+
+    dnf install docker
+    systemctl enable docker.service
+    systemctl start docker.service
+    systemctl status docker.service
+
+#. Jump into the dmtf directory.
+#. Run ./buildImage.sh and ./run-redfish-simulator.sh
+#. Check that a container is running and listening on port 8000::
+
+    (pypi)[uggla@ugglalaptop dmtf]$ docker ps
+    CONTAINER ID        IMAGE                      COMMAND                  CREATED             STATUS              PORTS                  NAMES

+#. Try to connect using a navigator to http://localhost:8000 the following screen should apear.
+
+   .. image:: images/simulator.jpg
+
+Note : in the above screenshot, firefox JSON-handle extension is used. If you want the same presentation install the extension and refresh the page.

+==========================
+Testing against the mockup
+==========================
+
+#. Follow `Host configuration file configuration`_ and `Mockup installation`_ section.
+#. Run the following command::
+
+    redfish-client.py manager getinfo
+
+The result should be like this::
+
+    (pypi)[uggla@ugglalaptop dmtf]$ redfish-client.py manager getinfo

 Usage
 ========
 
-To use python-redfish in a project::
+Example using the mockup
+------------------------
+
+example/simple-simulator.py provide a simple library usage to interact with the
+redfish mockup.
+
+Example using a proliant
+------------------------
+
+example/simple-proliant.py provide a simple library usage to interact with a HP
+proliant BL460C G9 server. However this example should work on any server supplier following redfish
+standard. 
+
+refish-client usage
+-------------------
+
+The clint usage can be display using::
+
+    redfish-client.py -h
+
+This is also available at http://pythonhosted.org/python-redfish/redfish-client.html .
