+## Plugins
 
-## Usage
-To use sunfishcorelib you need to specify the **configuration parameters** into the conf.json file, an example could be:
+The Sunfish core library uses a plugin based mechanism for providing custom implementation of:
+
+- Storage backends: implementation of the Sunfish storage interface used for controlling how RedFish storage are persisted. Plugins in this class must implement the `BackendInterface` class in  `storage.backend_interface`.
+- Event handlers: Sunfish interactions with hardware agents and clients is implemented through RedFish events. When an event is received, users might want to execute a specific action depending on the specific event. These are provided via this plugin. Plugins in this class must implement the `EventHandlerInterface` class in  `events.event_handler_interface`.
+- Objects handlers: Whenever a request for an object (get, create, replace, patch, delete) is received on the Sunfish external api the core library checks whether a special handler is to be executed for that specific object. Examples are an object is created and it requires other objects to be created in turn as a result. Plugins in this class must implement the `ObjectHandlerInterface` class in  `lib.object_handler_interface`.
+- Objects managers: Sunfish keeps all objects in the form of a RedFish tree. Objects belong to a manager (e.g., a Sunfish agent) and this plugin provides the methods for Sungish to interact with the manager. Plugins in this class must implement the `ObjectManagerInterface` class in  `lib.object_manager_interface`.
+
+Plugins are based on python's namespaced packages and are required to be placed in a specific folder at the top of your project. Only the actual plugins have a user defined name. Please see the below example. 
+
+```commandline
+─ sunfish_plugins
+   ├── storage
+   │   └──my_storage_package     <--- User defined
+   │      ├── __init__.py
+   │      └── my_storage_backend.py
+   └── events_handlers
+   │   └──my_handler_package     <--- User defined
+   │      ├── __init__.py
+   │      └── my_handler.py
+   ├── objects_handlers
+   │   └──my_objects_handler_package     <--- User defined
+   │      ├── __init__.py
+   │      └── my_objects_handler.py
+   ├── objects_managers
+   │   └──my_objects_manager_package     <--- User defined
+   │      ├── __init__.py
+   │      └── my_objects_manager.py
 ```
+
+Please note no setup.py or project.toml should be placed in any of the plugins folders, including the pre-defined folders (i.e., sunfish_plugins, storage, events_handlers, objects_handlers, objects_managers). Failing to do so will make the plugins impossible to be discovered. 
+
+
+When initializing the library, users can specify their implementation of their plugins as part of the sunfish configuration. See the below example. 
+
+```python
+sunfish_config = {
+    
+}
+```
+
+This plugin mechanism allows user to modify the standard behavior of Sunfish without having to modify the core library. Users can place the `sunifsh_plugins` folder at the top of their project that imports the sunfish core library and benefit from the flexibility of a plugin.
+
+If no plugins are specified in the configuration, the Sunfish library will load the default implementations. See the code for more details. 
+
+## Usage
+
+When initializing the sunfish core library, users need to specify the **configuration parameters** as a dict  to be passed to the `init` function. The below snippet shows all the possible fields :
+```json
 {
-    "storage_backend": "FS",
     "redfish_root": "/redfish/v1/",
-    "backend_conf" : {
-        "fs_root": "Resources",
-        "subscribers_root": "EventService/Subscriptions"
-    },
     "handlers": {
-        "subscription_handler": "redfish",
-        "event_handler": "redfish"
+        "subscription_handler": "redfish"
+    },
+    "storage_backend": {
+                "module_name": "storage.file_system_backend.backend_FS",
+                "class_name": "BackendFS"
+    },
+    "events_handler": {
+                "module_name": "events_handlers.redfish.redfish_event_handler",
+                "class_name": "RedfishEventHandler"
+    },
+    "objects_handler": {
+        "module_name": "objects_handlers.sunfish_server.redfish_object_handler",
+        "class_name": "RedfishObjectHandler"
+    },
+    "objects_manager": {
+        "module_name": "objects_managers.sunfish_agent.sunfish_agent_manager",
+        "class_name": "SunfishAgentManager"
     }
 }
 ```
 
-where:
-- _storage_backend_ specifies the persistency implementation that you want to use
-- _redfish_root_ specifies the Redfish version that must be included in all the requests
-- _backend_conf[fs_root]_ specifies the root directory of Redfish objects' file system
-- _subscription_handler_ specifies the type of handler implementation that you want to use to handle subscriptions
-- _event_handler_ specifies the type of handler implementation that you want to use to handle events
+Where:
+- `redfish_root`: the root of the RedFish service served by the Sunfish core library.
+- `subscripition_hadler`: Identifies how to handle subscriptions to events. At the moment only `redfish` is supported and follows the Redfish standard
+- `storage_backend`: specifies the storage plugin to load.
+- `events_handler`: specifies the event handling plugin to load.
+- `objects_handler`: specifies the object handling plugin to load.
+- `objects_manager`: specifies the object manager plugin to load.
+
+All plugins must specify the module and class name via the `module_name` and `class_name` fields respectively.
 
 Sunfish should be installed and imported in an existing Python project. To use it:
 - instantiate an object Core(conf)
