+# O-RAN-SC Kafka Dispatcher Module extension for A1 Simulator
+
+The O-RAN SC dispatcher module is an extension for A1 simulator. It creates a web server building RESTful APIs. It is capable of recieving Rest calls from the northbound simulator version and respond back to it.
+
+The kafka dispatcher module supports GET, PUT and DELETE operations (version of the open API yaml file\):
+
+| Yaml file version          |     Version id      |
+| -------------------------- |-------------------- |
+| KAFKA_DISPATCHER_api.yaml  |      0.0.1          |
+
+The overall folder structure is \(relative to the location of this README file\):
+
+| Dir              | Description |
+| ---------------- | ----------- |
+|.                 |Dockerfile, tox.ini and README |
+|api               |The open api yaml |
+|src               |Python source code |
+|certificate       |A self-signed certificate and a key |
+|docs              |Auto generated API descriptions in HTML format |
+
+The dispatcher module handles the requests that are defined in the open API yaml file. All these requests are implemented in the dispatcher.py file in the src folder. In addition, a number of administrative functions are also supported and implemented by the main.py in the source folder.
+
+The section below outlines the supported open api rest-based operations as well as the adminstrative operations.
+
+# Ports and certificates
+
+The dispatcher module normally opens the port 7075 for http. If a certificate and a key are provided the kafka dispatcher module will open port 7175 for https instead. The port 7175 is only opened if a valid certificate and key is found.
+The certificate and key shall be placed in the same directory and the directory shall be mounted to /usr/src/app/cert in the container.
+
+| Port     | Protocol |
+| -------- | ----- |
+| 7075     | http  |
+| 7175     | https |
+
+The directory certificate contains a self-signed cert. Use the script generate_cert_and_key.sh to generate a new certificate and key. The password of the certificate must be set 'test'.
+The same urls are availables on both the http port 7075 and the https port 7175. If using curl and https, the flag -k shall be given to make curl ignore checking the certificate.
+
+# Supported operations in Kafka Dispatcher Module 0.0.1
+
+
+For the complete yaml specification, see [openapi.yaml](../api/KAFKA_DISPATCHER_api.yaml)
+
+URIs for server:
+
+| Function              | Path and parameters |
+| --------------------- | ------------------- |

+|  GET, Dispatch policy status query opertion as kafka message to kafka cluster | localhost:7075/policytypes/ANR/kafkadispatcher/alpha/status |
+|  PUT, Dispatch create and update operation as kafka message to kafka cluster | localhost:7075/policytypes/ANR/kafkadispatcher/alpha |
+|  DELETE, Dispatch policy delete opertion as kafka message to kafka cluster | localhost:7075/policytypes/ptype1/kafkadispatcher/alpha |
+
+URIs for admin operations:
+
+| Function              | Path and parameters |
+| --------------------- | ------------------- |
+|  GET, Get status of dispatcher module | http://localhost:7075/ |
+|  POST, Force a specific response code for all dispatcher module operations | localhost:7075/dispatcheradmin/forceresponse?code=500 |
+|  POST, Reset force response code | localhost:7075/dispatcheradmin/forceresponse |
+|  POST, Force delayed response of all dispatcher module operations | localhost:7075/dispatcheradmin/forcedelay?delay=5 |
+|  POST, Reset force delayed response | localhost:7075/dispatcheradmin/forcedelay |
