+# Installing XDS server
+
+Depending of your configuration, this step is necessary or not.
+
+IOW **you are a developer and plan to use/connect to an existing `xds-server`**
+running on your local network (On-Premise config) or in the Cloud (SaaS config),
+**you don't need to install the server part and you can skip this step**.
+
+For others (standalone config or administrators that want to install an
+On-Premise solution) xds-server must be installed.
+
+Several installation types are supported :
+
+| Install type | Supported OS | Section to refer |
+|--------------|--------------|------------------|
+| Container | Linux or MacOS | [see Installation based on Docker container](#docker_container) |
+| Virtual Machine | Linux, MacOS or Windows | [see Installation based on VirtualBox appliance](#vbox_appliance) |
+| Native | Linux | [see Native installation](#native) |
+
+## <a name="docker_container"></a> Installation based on Docker container
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+Docker is installed on the host machine, please refer to [Docker documentation](https://docs.docker.com/engine/installation/) for more details.
+
+### Get the container
+
+Load the pre-build AGL SDK docker image including `xds-server`:
+
+```bash
+seb@laptop ~$ wget -O - http://iot.bzh/download/public/2017/XDS/docker/docker_agl_worker-xds-latest.tar.xz | docker load
+```
+
+You should get `docker.automotivelinux.org/agl/worker-xds:X.Y` image
+
+```bash
+# List image that we just load
+seb@laptop ~$ docker images "docker.automotivelinux.org/agl/worker-xds*"
+
+docker.automotivelinux.org/agl/worker-xds 4.0 786d65b2792c 6 days ago 654MB
+```
+
+### Create and start a new container
+
+Use provided script to create a new docker container and start it:
+
+```bash
+# Get script
+seb@laptop ~$ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/iotbzh/xds-server/master/scripts/xds-docker-create-container.sh
+
+# Create new XDS worker container
+seb@laptop ~$ bash ./xds-docker-create-container.sh
+
+# Check that new container is running
+seb@laptop ~$ docker ps | grep worker-xds
+
+b985d81af40c docker.automotivelinux.org/agl/worker-xds:3.99.1 "/usr/bin/wait_for..." 6 days ago Up 4 hours 0.0.0.0:8000->8000/tcp, 0.0.0.0:69->69/udp, 0.0.0.0:10809->10809/tcp, 0.0.0.0:2222->22/tcp agl-xds-seb@laptop-0-seb
+```
+
+### Check if xds-server is running
+
+`xds-server` is automatically started as a service on container startup.
+
+To check if xds-server is correctly install and running, you can access the web
+interface, what we call the "Dashboard", using a web browser :
+
+```bash
+# if container is running on your local host
+# (else replace localhost by the name or the ip of the machine running the container)
+seb@laptop ~$ xdg-open http://localhost:8000
+```
+
+### Container settings
+
+This container (ID=0) exposes following ports:
+
+- 8000 : `xds-server` to serve XDS Dashboard
+- 69 : TFTP
+- 2222 : ssh
+
+This container also creates the following volumes (sharing directories between
+inside and outside docker):
+
+| Directory on host | Directory inside docker | Comment |
+|-------------------|-------------------------|---------|
+| $HOME/xds-workspace | /home/devel/xds-workspace | XDS projects workspace location|
+| $HOME/ssd/xdt_0 | /xdt | location to store SDKs |
+| $HOME/devel/docker/share |/home/devel/share | another shared directory |
+
+
+<!-- note -->
+Please refer to **part 2 - xds-server** documentation for additional info.
+<!-- endnote -->
+
+## <a name="vbox_appliance"></a> Installation based on VirtualBox appliance
+
+_coming soon ..._
+
+## <a name="native"></a> Native installation
+
+<!-- note -->
+Only Linux host OS is supported and tested for native installation !
+<!-- endnote -->
+
+### Install packages for debian distro type
+
+```bash
+# 'DISTRO' can be set to { xUbuntu_16.04, xUbuntu_16.10, xUbuntu_17.04, Debian_8.0, Debian_9.0}
+seb@laptop ~$ export DISTRO="xUbuntu_16.04"
+
+seb@laptop ~$ wget -O - http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/isv:/LinuxAutomotive:/app-Development/${DISTRO}/Release.key | sudo apt-key add -
+seb@laptop ~$ sudo bash -c "cat >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/AGL.list <<EOF
+deb http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/isv:/LinuxAutomotive:/app-Development/${DISTRO}/ ./
+EOF"
+
+seb@laptop ~$ sudo apt-get update
+seb@laptop ~$ sudo apt-get install agl-xds-server
+```
+
+### Install packages for openSUSE distro type
+
+```bash
+# DISTRO can be set to {openSUSE_Leap_42.2, openSUSE_Leap_42.3, openSUSE_Tumbleweed}
+seb@laptop ~$ export DISTRO="openSUSE_Leap_42.2"
+
+seb@laptop ~$ sudo zypper ar http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/isv:/LinuxAutomotive:/app-Development/${DISTRO}/isv:LinuxAutomotive:app-Development.repo
+
+seb@laptop ~$ sudo zypper ref
+seb@laptop ~$ sudo zypper install agl-xds-server
+```
+
+### Configure xds-server
+
+_Optional step: nothing to do if you keep default settings_
+
+When `xds-server` is started as a systemd service, default environment variables
+are set into `/etc/default/xds-server` file.
+
+`xds-server` configuration is also driven by a JSON config file (`config.json`),
+and default JSON config is `/etc/xds-server/config.json`.
+
+<!-- note -->
+>**Note**: you can use your own JSON config by settings `APP_CONFIG` variable of
+`/etc/default/xds-server` file to your file, for example
+`/home/MYUSER/.xds/server/config.json`
+<!-- endnote -->
+
+Supported fields in JSON configuration file are :
+
+- **httpPort** : HTTP port of client webapp / dashboard
+- **webAppDir** : location of client dashboard (default: webapp/dist)
+- **shareRootDir** : root directory where projects will be copied
+- **logsDir** : directory to store logs (eg. syncthing output)
+- **sdkRootDir** : root directory where cross SDKs are installed
+- **syncthing.binDir** : syncthing binaries directory (default: executable directory)
+- **syncthing.home"** : syncthing home directory (usually .../syncthing-config)
+- **syncthing.gui-address** : syncthing gui url (default http://localhost:8384)
+- **syncthing.gui-apikey** : syncthing api-key to use (default auto-generated)
+
+All fields are optional and example below corresponds to the default values:
+
+```json
+{
+ "httpPort": 8000,
+ "webAppDir": "webapp/dist",
+ "shareRootDir": "${HOME}/.xds-server/projects",
+ "logsDir": "/tmp/logs",
+ "sdkRootDir": "/xdt/sdk",
+ "syncthing": {
+ "binDir": "./bin",
+ "home": "${HOME}/.xds-server/syncthing-config",
+ "gui-address": "http://localhost:8384",
+ "gui-apikey": "123456789",
+ }
+}
+```
+
+>**NOTE:** environment variables are supported by using `${MY_VAR}` syntax.
+
+### Start/Stop xds-server
+
+`xds-server` can be managed as a systemd service with the following commands:
+
+```bash
+# Status XDS server:
+seb@laptop ~$ sudo systemctl status xds-server.service
+
+# Stop XDS server
+seb@laptop ~$ sudo systemctl stop xds-server.service
+
+# Start XDS server
+seb@laptop ~$ sudo systemctl start xds-server.service
+
+# Get XDS server logs
+seb@laptop ~$ sudo journalctl --unit=xds-server.service --output=cat
+```
+
+To check if xds-server is correctly install and running, you can access the web
+interface, what we call the "Dashboard", using a web browser :
+
+```bash
+seb@laptop ~$ xdg-open http://localhost:8000
+```
