+# Example:
+
+## Build the node
+
+```
+ mkdir -p colcon_ws/src
+ cd colcon_ws/src
+ git clone https://github.com/picknikrobotics/generate_parameter_library.git
+ cd ..
+ colcon build
+```
+
+## Run the Python node
+
+```
+source install/setup.bash
+python3 src/generate_parameter_library/example_cmake_python/cmake_generate_parameter_module_example/minimal_publisher.py --ros-args --params-file src/generate_parameter_library/example_python/config/implementation.yaml
+```
+
+You should see an output like this:
+`[INFO] [1656018676.015816509] [admittance_controller]: Initial control frame parameter is: 'ee_link'`
+
+
+## ROS 2 CLI
+
+Run the following:
+
+`ros2 param list`
+
+You should see:

+All parameter are automatically declared and callbacks are setup by default. You can set a parameter by typing:
+
+`ros2 param set /admittance_controller control.frame.id new_frame`
+
+You should see:
+
+`[INFO] [1656019001.515820371] [admittance_controller]: New control frame parameter is: 'new_frame'`
+
+Congratulations, you updated the parameter!
+
+If you try to set a parameter that is read only, you will get an error. Running the following
+
+`ros2 param set /admittance_controller command_interfaces ["velocity"]`
+
+will result in the error
+
+`Setting parameter failed: Trying to set a read-only parameter: command_interfaces.`
+
+Running the following
+
+`ros2 param describe /admittance_controller admittance.damping_ratio`
+
+will show a parameter's description
+
+ ```
+ Parameter name: admittance.damping_ratio
+  Type: double array
+  Description: specifies damping ratio values for x, y, z, rx, ry, and rz used in the admittance calculation. The values are calculated as damping can be used instead: zeta = D / (2 * sqrt( M * S ))
+  Constraints:
+    Min value: 0.1
+    Max value: 10.0
+```
+
+If you try to set a value out of the specified bounds,
+
+`ros2 param set /admittance_controller admittance.damping_ratio [-10.0,-10.0,-10.0,-10.0,-10.0,-10.0]`
+
+you will get the error
+
+`Setting parameter failed: Value array('d', [-10.0, -10.0, -10.0, -10.0, -10.0, -10.0]) in parameter 'admittance.damping_ratio' must be within bounds [0.1, 10.0]`
+
+If you try to set a vector parameter with the wrong length,
+
+`ros2 param set /admittance_controller admittance.damping_ratio [1.0,1.0,1.0]`
+
+you will get the error
+
+`Setting parameter failed: Length of parameter 'admittance.damping_ratio' is '3' but must be equal to 6`
+
+If you try to load a yaml file with missing required parameters
+
+`python3 src/generate_parameter_library/example_cmake_python/cmake_generate_parameter_module_example/minimal_publisher.py --ros-args --params-file src/generate_parameter_library/example_python/config/missing_required.yaml`
+
+you will get the error
+
+```
+Traceback (most recent call last):
+[...]
+rclpy.exceptions.ParameterUninitializedException: The parameter 'fixed_string_no_default' is not initialized
+[ros2run]: Process exited with failure 1
