+# SpaceAPI Server
+
+[![pipeline status](https://gitlab.com/s3lph/spaceapi-server/badges/master/pipeline.svg)][master]
+[![coverage report](https://gitlab.com/s3lph/spaceapi-server/badges/master/coverage.svg)][master]
+
+A lightweight server for [SpaceAPI][spaceapi] endpoints. Includes support for pluggable templating, so dynamic content,
+like sensor values, can be added.
+
+## Dependencies
+
+- Python 3 (>=3.6)
+- [Bottle][pypi-bottle]
+- [Jinja2][pypi-jinja2]
+
+## License
+
+[MIT License][mit]
+
+## Usage
+
+```bash
+python -m spaceapi_server config.json
+```
+
+## Configuration
+
+```json
+{
+    "address": "::1",     # The address to listen on.
+    "port": 8000,         # The TCP port to listen on.
+    "server": "wsgiref",  # The Bottle backend server to use.
+    "template": "template.json",  # Path to the SpaceAPI response template file.
+    "plugins_dir": "plugins",     # Path to the directory containing your plugins.
+
+    "plugins": {
+        # Plugin-specific configuration should go in here, e.g. `.plugins.sqlite.database`
+    }
+}
+```
+
+## Serve a Static SpaceAPI Endpoint
+
+Have a look at [SpaceAPI: Getting Started][spaceapi-getting-started].  If you only want to serve static content, your
+`template.json` may consist of regular JSON data, which is served almost-as-is (once parsed and re-serialized).
+
+## Add Dynamic Content
+
+This example guides you through adding a dynamic `.state` property to your SpaceAPI endpoint.  We'll use the following
+(rather simple, and probably not too useful) data source:  Check a certain file, and mark the space as open depending on
+its existence.
+
+1. Create a plugin to fetch the data.  Let's name it `mybackend.py` and put in in our plugins directory:
+
+    ```python
+    import os
+    from spaceapi_server import config, plugins
+
+    @plugins.template_function
+    def space_state():
+        # Get the plugin config dict
+        conf = config.get_plugin_config('mybackend')
+        # Get the filename
+        filename = conf.get('filename', '/var/space_state')
+        try:
+            # Get the file's properties
+            stat = os.stat(filename)
+        except FileNotFoundError:
+            # File doesn't exist, aka. space is closed
+            return {
+                'open': False
+            }
+        # File exists, aka. space is open.  Also report the mtime as "last changed" timestamp
+        return {
+            'open': True,
+            'lastchange': int(stat.st_mtime)
+        }
+    ```
+
+    The `@template_function` decorator registers the function as a callable in Jinja's globals.  There's also
+    `@template_filter`, which registers a Jinja2 filter, and `@template_test`, which registers a test.  For more
+    information on the Jinja2 templating engine, see [Jinja2][jinja].
+
+2. Call the template function in your template:
+
+    ```json
+    {
+        # ...
+        "state": "{{ space_state() }}"
+        # ...
+    }
+    ```
+
+    Although the value for the `state` key is a string containing the Jinja2 template, the return value of your template
+    function is a complex data type, which will be inserted into the result as such.
+
+3. Configure the server:
+
+    ```json
+    # ...
+    "template": "template.json",
+    "plugins_dir": "plugins",
+    "plugins": {
+        "mybackend": {
+            "filename", "/var/space_state"
+        }
+    }
+    # ...
+    ```
+
+4. Start the server and query it.
