+
+## Deployment
+
+The service is distributed as Docker container. The following snippet provides
+a compose file template that can be used to deploy the service container locally:
+
+```yaml
+version: "2"
+services:
+  adapter:
+    image: mainflux/coap:[version]
+    container_name: [instance name]
+    ports:
+      - [host machine port]:[configured port]
+    environment:
+      MF_COAP_ADAPTER_PORT: [Service HTTP port]
+      MF_NATS_URL: [NATS instance URL]
+      MF_THINGS_URL: [Things service URL]
+      MF_COAP_ADAPTER_LOG_LEVEL: [Service log level]
+```
+
+Running this service outside of container requires working instance of the NATS service.
+To start the service outside of the container, execute the following shell script:
+
+```bash
+# download the latest version of the service
+go get github.com/mainflux/mainflux
+
+cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/mainflux/mainflux
+
+# compile the http
+make coap
+
+# copy binary to bin
+make install
+
+# set the environment variables and run the service
+MF_THINGS_URL=[Things service URL] MF_NATS_URL=[NATS instance URL] MF_COAP_ADAPTER_PORT=[Service HTTP port] MF_COAP_ADAPTER_LOG_LEVEL=[Service log level] $GOBIN/mainflux-coap
+```
+
+## Usage
+
+Since CoAP protocol does not support `Authorization` header (option), in order to send CoAP messages,
+client valid `authorization` value must be present in `Uri-Query` option.

+#### Building Docker images for development
+
+In order to speed up build process, you can use commands such as:
+
+```bash
+make dockers_dev
+```
+
+or individually with
+
+```bash
+make docker_dev_<microservice_name>
+```
+
+Commands `make dockers` and `make dockers_dev` are similar. The main difference is that building images in the development mode is done on the local machine, rather than an intermediate image, which makes building images much faster. Before running this command, corresponding binary needs to be built in order to make changes visible. This can be done using `make` or `make <service_name>` command. Commands `make dockers_dev` and `make docker_dev_<service_name>` should be used only for development to speed up the process of image building. **For deployment images, commands from section above should be used.**

+
+## Add-ons
+
+The `<project_root>/docker` folder contains an `addons` directory. This directory is used for various services that are not core to the Mainflux platform but could be used for providing additional features.
+
+In order to run these services, core services, as well as the network from the core composition, should be already running.
+
+### Writers
+
+Writers provide an implementation of various `message writers`. Message writers are services that consume normalized (in `SenML` format) Mainflux messages and store them in specific data store.
+
+#### InfluxDB, InfluxDB-writer and Grafana
+
+From the project root execute the following command:
+
+```bash
+docker-compose -f docker/addons/influxdb-writer/docker-compose.yml up -d
+``` 
+This will install and start:
+
+- [InfluxDB](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb) - time series database
+- InfluxDB writer - message repository implementation for InfluxDB
+- [Grafana](https://grafana.com) - tool for database exploration and data visualization and analytics
+
+Those new services will take some additional ports:
+
+- 8086 by InfluxDB
+- 8900 by InfluxDB writer service
+- 3001 by Grafana
+
+To access Grafana, navigate to `http://localhost:3001` and login with: `admin`, password: `admin`
+
+#### Cassandra and Cassandra-writer
+
+```bash
+./docker/addons/cassandra-writer/init.sh
+``` 
+_Please note that Cassandra may not be suitable for your testing enviroment because it has high system requirements._
+
+#### MongoDB and MongoDB-writer
+
+```bash
+docker-compose -f docker/addons/mongodb-writer/docker-compose.yml up -d
+```
+MongoDB default port (27017) is exposed, so you can use various tools for database inspection and data visualization.
+
+### Readers
+
+Readers provide an implementation of various `message readers`.
+Message readers are services that consume normalized (in `SenML` format) Mainflux messages from data storage and opens HTTP API for message consumption.
+Installing corresponding writer before reader is implied. 
+
+
+#### InfluxDB-reader 
+
+```bash

+``` 
+Service exposes [HTTP API](https://github.com/mainflux/mainflux/blob/master/readers/swagger.yml) for fetching messages on port 8905
+
+
+To read sent messages on channel with id `channel_id` you should send `GET` request to `/channels/<channel_id>/messages` with thing access token in `Authorization` header. That thing must be connected to  channel with `channel_id`
+
+```
+curl -s -S -i  -H "Authorization: <thing_token>" http://localhost:8905/channels/<channel_id>/messages
+```
+
+Response should look like this:
+
+```
+HTTP/1.1 200 OK
+Content-Type: application/json
+Date: Tue, 18 Sep 2018 18:56:19 GMT

+            "Time": 48.56
+        }
+    ]
+}
+```
+Note that you will receive only those messages that were sent by authorization token's owner.
+You can specify `offset` and `limit` parameters in order to fetch specific group of messages. In that case, your request should look like:
+
+```
+curl -s -S -i  -H "Authorization: <thing_token>" http://localhost:8905/channels/<channel_id>/messages?offset=0&limit=5
+```
+If you don't provide them, default values will be used instead: 0 for `offset`, and 10 for `limit`.

+
+This package provides basic support for routing based on path and method for
+CoAP server. This library is heavily inspired by [mux](https://github.com/gorilla/mux).
+
+## Installation
+
+`go get github.com/dereulenspiegel/coap-mux`
+
+## Usage
+
+Create a new router with `NewRouter()` and add routes with `NewRoute()`,
+`Handle(path, handler)` or `Path(string)`. The returned route object can be
+configured further.
