 Content database for Minetest mods, games, and more.\
 Developed by rubenwardy, license GPLv3.0+.
 
-## Getting started (debug/dev)
-
-Docker is the recommended way to develop and deploy ContentDB.
-
-1. Install `docker` and `docker-compose`.
-
-	Debian/Ubuntu:
-
-		sudo apt install docker-ce docker-compose
-
-2. Copy `config.example.cfg` to `config.cfg`.
-
-	1. Set `SECRET_KEY` and `WTF_CSRF_SECRET_KEY` to different random values.
-
-3. (Optional) Set up mail in config.cfg.
-   Make sure to set `USER_ENABLE_EMAIL` to True.
-
-4. (Optional) Set up GitHub integration
-	1. Make a Github OAuth Client at <https://github.com/settings/developers>:
-	2. Homepage URL - `http://localhost:5123/`
-	3. Authorization callback URL - `http://localhost:5123/user/github/callback/`
-	4. Put client id and client secret in `GITHUB_CLIENT_ID` and `GITHUB_CLIENT_SECRET` in config.cfg.
-
-5. Create config.env:
-
-		POSTGRES_USER=contentdb
-		POSTGRES_PASSWORD=password
-		POSTGRES_DB=contentdb
-		FLASK_DEBUG=1
-
-6. Start docker images:
-
-		docker-compose up --build
-
-7. Setup database:
-
-		./utils/run_migrations.sh
-
-8. Create initial data
-	1. `./utils/bash.sh`
-	2. Either `python utils/setup.py -t` or `python utils/setup.py -o`:
-	  	1. `-o` creates just the admin, and static data like tags, and licenses.
-	  	2. `-t` will do `-o` and also create test packages. (Recommended)
-
-9. View at <http://localhost:5123>.
-   The admin username is `rubenwardy` and the password is `tuckfrump`.
-
-In the future, starting CDB is as simple as:
-
-	docker-compose up --build
-
-To hot/live update CDB whilst it is running, use:
-
-	./utils/reload.sh
-
-This will only work with python code and templates, it won't update tasks or config.
-

+# Minetest's use of the API
+
+This document explains how Minetest's ContentDB client interacts with ContentDB.
+This is useful both for implementing your own client for ContentDB to install mods, 
+or for implementing ContentDB compatible servers.
+
+## Package List API call
+
+The first request the client makes is to `/api/packages/`.
+The client will provide a list of supported types, the current engine version information,
+and any hidden [Content Flags](https://content.minetest.net/help/content_flags/).
+
+Because the client specifies the engine version information, the response must contain a release
+number and the package must be downloadable.
+
+Example URL:
+<https://content.minetest.net/api/packages/?type=mod&type=game&type=txp&protocol_version=39&engine_version=5.3.0&hide=nonfree&hide=desktop_default>
+
+Example response:
+
+```json
+[
+    {
+        "author": "Wuzzy",
+        "name": "mineclone2",
+        "release": 4209,
+        "short_description": "A short description",
+        "thumbnail": "https://content.minetest.net/thumbnails/1/tgbH5CwlAZ.jpg",
+        "title": "MineClone 2",
+        "type": "game"
+    }
+]
+```
+
+## Screenshots
+
+The client can simply download the URL mentioned in `thumbnail`.
+
+## Downloading and installing
+
+The client downloads packages by constructing a URL for the release and downloading it:
+
+```
+https://content.minetest.net/packages/<author>/<name>/releases/<release>/download/
+```
+
+This supports redirects.
+
+The client will edit the .conf of the installed content to add `author`, `name`, and `release` to
+track the installed release to detect updates in the future.
+
+## View in browser
+
+The client will open the package in a browser by constructing the following URL
+
+```
+https://content.minetest.net/packages/<author>/<name>/
+```
