 # bfabricPy
-
 This package connects the [bfabric](https://fgcz-bfabric.uzh.ch/bfabric/) system to the [python](https://www.python.org/) and [R](https://cran.r-project.org/) world while providing a JSON and REST interface using [Flask](https://www.fullstackpython.com).
  The [bfabricShiny](https://github.com/cpanse/bfabricShiny) R package is an extension and provides code snippets and sample implementation for a seamless R shiny bfabric integration.
 For more advanced users the *bfabricPy* package also provides a powerful query interface on the command-line though using the provided scripts.
 
+## Install
+The package can be installed like any other Python package, so if you are familiar you might not need to read this section.
+Currently, it's only available from GitHub.
 
-![bfabricPy-read](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/4901987/65025926-db77c900-d937-11e9-8c92-f2412d6793ee.gif)
-[see also #14](https://github.com/fgcz/bfabricPy/issues/14)
+The best way to install the package depends on your use case, i.e. whether you want to:
 
-## Requirements
+1. Use the command line scripts
+2. Use the Python API
+3. Develop on the package
 
-- install current stable Debian Linux release (any current BSD like or Microsoft OS will do)
+The command line scripts are currently included in all cases.
 
-- install the python3 package as follows:
+### Command line scripts
+To use the command line scripts, it's recommended to install `bfabricPy` with [pipx](https://pipx.pypa.io/).
+If you don't have `pipx` installed, refer to the [pipx documentation](https://pipx.pypa.io/stable/installation/) for instructions.
 
-```{bash}
-git clone [email protected]:fgcz/bfabricPy.git  \
-  && cd bfabricPy 
+You can execute a command using a specific version of `bfabricPy` with the `pipx run` command.
+This command handles the dependencies of multiple concurrent installations:
+
+```bash
+pipx run --spec "git+https://github.com/fgcz/[email protected]" bfabric_read.py --help
 ```
 
-## Install
+To install a specific version of bfabricPy on your system and make the command available without `pipx run` prefix, use the following command:
+```bash
+pipx install "git+https://github.com/fgcz/[email protected]"
+bfabric_read.py --help
+```
+
+### Python API
+If you're interested in using the Python API of `bfabricPy`, you have two options:
+
+#### 1. Configure it in your `pyproject.toml` file.
+```toml
+[project]
+dependencies = [
+    "bfabricPy @ git+https://github.com/fgcz/bfabricPy.git@main"
+]
+```
+
+#### 2. Install the `bfabricPy` package directly using pip.
+```bash
+pip install git+https://github.com/fgcz/bfabricPy.git
+````
+
+### Development
+As a bfabricPy developer: (i.e. an editable install)
 
 ```{bash}
-python3 setup.py install --user
+pip install -e ".[dev]"
 ```
 
 ## Configuration
+Create a file as follows: (note: the password is not your login password, but the web service password)
+
+```{yaml}
+# ~/.bfabricpy.yml
+
+GENERAL:
+  default_config: PRODUCTION
+
+PRODUCTION:
+  login: yourBfabricLogin
+  password: yourBfabricWebPassword
+  base_url: https://fgcz-bfabric.uzh.ch/bfabric
+```
 
-```{bash}
-cat ~/.bfabricrc.py 
-_WEBBASE="https://fgcz-bfabric-test.uzh.ch/bfabric"
-_LOGIN="yourBfabricLogin"
-_PASSWD='yourBfabricWebPassword'
+You can also include an additional config for the TEST instance
+
+```{yaml}
+TEST:
+  login: yourBfabricLogin
+  password: yourBfabricWebPassword
+  base_url: https://fgcz-bfabric-test.uzh.ch/bfabric
