+# Juju Charm(s) for deploying OpenMano
+
+## Overview
+These are the charm layers used to build Juju charms for deploying OpenVIM components. These charms are also published to the [Juju Charm Store](https://jujucharms.com/) and can be deployed directly from there using the [etsi-osm](https://jujucharms.com/u/nfv/osm-r1), or they can be build from these layers and deployed locally.
+
+## Building the OpenVIM Charms
+
+To build these charms, you will need [charm-tools][]. You should also read
+over the developer [Getting Started][] page for an overview of charms and
+building them. Then, in any of the charm layer directories, use `charm build`.
+For example:
+
+    (setup environment to build from layers)
+    mkdir src
+    cd src
+    git clone https://github.com/nfvlabs/openvim.git
+    export JUJU_REPOSITORY=$HOME/src/openvim/charms
+    export INTERFACE_PATH=$JUJU_REPOSITORY/interfaces
+    export LAYER_PATH=$JUJU_REPOSITORY/layers
+
+    cd $LAYER_PATH/openvim
+    charm build
+
+    cd $LAYER_PATH/openvim-compute
+    charm build
+
+This will build the OpenVIM controller and OpenVIM compute charms, pulling in
+ the appropriate base and interface layers from [interfaces.juju.solutions][], and place the resulting charms into $JUJU_REPOSITORY/builds.
+
+You can also use the local version of a bundle:
+
+    juju deploy openvim/charms/bundles/openmano.yaml
+
+To publish:
+
+    # You will need an account on Launchpad, and have it added to the ~nfv
+    # namespace. Please contact foo@bar for these permissions.
+    $ charm login
+
+    $ cd $JUJU_REPOSITORY/builds/openvim
+
+    # `charm push` will upload the charm into the store and report the revision
+    # of the latest push.
+    $ charm push . cs:~nfv/openvim
+    blah blah cs:~nfv/openvim-4
+
+    # Release the charm so that it is publicly consumable
+    $ charm release cs:~nfv/openvim-4
+
+    $ cd $JUJU_REPOSITORY/builds/openvim-compute
+
+    # `charm push` will upload the charm into the store and report the revision
+    # of the latest push.
+    $ charm push . cs:~nfv/openvim-compute
+    blah blah cs:~nfv/openvim-compute-4
+
+    # Release the charm so that it is publicly consumable
+    $ charm release cs:~nfv/openvim-compute-4
+
+    # Finally, update and publish the bundle to point to the latest revision(s):
+
+    cd $JUJU_REPOSITORY/bundles/openmano
+
+    # Edit the `README.md` to reflect any notable changes.
+
+    # Edit the `bundle.yaml` with the new revision to be deployed, i.e., change cs:~nfv/openvim-3 to cs:~nfv/openvim-4
+
+    $ charm push . cs:~nfv/bundle/osm-r1
+    blah blah cs:~nfv/bundle/osm-r1-4
+
+    $ charm release cs:~nfv/bundle/osm-r1-4
+
+To deploy the published charms from the charm store:
+
+    # The recommended method
+    $ charm deploy cs:~nfv/bundles/openmano
+
+    - or -
+
+    # The manual method
+    $ juju deploy cs:~nfv/openvim
+    $ juju deploy cs:~nfv/openvim-compute
+    $ juju deploy cs:~nfv/openmano
+    $ juju deploy cs:mariadb
+
+    $ juju add-relation mariadb openvim
+    $ juju add-relation mariadb openmano
+    $ juju add-relation openvim openvim-compute
+    $ juju add-relation openvim openmano
