-The folder contains a number of scripts which provide a convenient way to
-generate advanced graphs from the SIGUSR2 output of tinc.
-
-it currently contains the following files:
-
-sanitize.sh:
-    wrapper arond parse.py which filters the syslog file for all tinc
-    related lines and removes the status informations: 
-    this means that
-    <code>
-    May 19 20:40:44 servarch dnsmasq[5382]: reading /etc/resolv.conf
-    May 19 20:41:38 servarch tinc.retiolum[4780]: Error looking up pa-sharepoint.informatik.ba-stuttgart.de port 655: Name or service not known
-    </code>
-    becomes
-    <code>
-    Error looking up pa-sharepoint.informatik.ba-stuttgart.de port 655: Name or service not known
-    </code>
-    and so on.
-    It also provides a wrapper around graphviz which automagically
-    generates graphs from the produced graph file
-
-parse.py:
-    reads from stdin the sanitized syslog file and prints a valid dot file
-    from the given output.
-    The parser module may also produce any other output (e.g. for dns
-    entries and so on) you will need to actually read and modify the source
-    in order to be able to do this. ~May the source be with you~

+# Generate Graphs from tinc
+
+## Install
+### Nix
+
+    # tinc_pre is required:
+    nix-env -i -f tinc_graphs.nix
+
+    ## e.g. in Retiolum:
+    ## krebs.retiolum.tinc = pkgs.tinc_pre
+### Local
+
+    python setup.py install
+    # also install graphviz,imagemagic for building graphs
+
+
+### Usage:
+
+see source of the 2 builder scripts:
+
+    #all-around-builder
+    # env: EXTERNAL_FOLDER, INTERNAL_FOLDER, GEODB, TINC_HOSTPATH
+    all-the-graphs
+
+    # build actual graphs
+    build-graph
+
+    # exported py scripts
+    tinc-stats2json         # - parses tinc current state into json
+    tinc-build-graph        # - transfers json to graph
+    copy-map                # - copies map.html into $1
+    add-geodata             # - adds geodata to json
+    tinc-availability-stats # adds availability data to json
+
