 # Python Widgets
 
+The Python Widgets are a collection of examples that provide some simple but useful visualization of an Egeria environment. They 
+are built with the **Rich** python package and demonstrate the use of **pyegeria** . They are installed with pyegeria
+python client and may be used either as python scripts or called directly. The source code for the widgets can be found
+in the pyegeria github repository at [Pyegeria Widgets](https://github.com/odpi/egeria-python/tree/690e3689a749c5de148087c626b2f5712085c9b0/examples/widgets).
+
+As the number of widgets has grown, they have been organized by role into different sub-directories within the pyegeria distribution. 
+
+* catalog_user - for users of the Egeria environment
+* developer - for those building with, or working on Egeria
+* operational - for visualizing the current state of Egeria - typically for administrators
+* personal_organizer - for visualizing work and individual items
+
+The naming convention for the widgets helps to understand their behaviour.
+When the widget starts with:
+
+* get - it will return details about a single item
+* list - lists elements through a paging interface like "more" - use q to quit.
+* view - provides a live view - typically of a status - use control-c to quit
+
+## Installation
+The **pyegeria** Egeria Python client can be installed from **pypi** . Python version 3.10 and above is a pre-requisite.
+One common way to install Python packages is with the **pip** command. So to install **pyegeria** you can execute:
+
+`pip install pyegeria`
+
+This will install **pyegeria** and all of its required packages.
+
+## Using
+
+Once **pyegeria** is installed. The widgets may be invoked from a terminal window or shell either as a command or as a python script.
+To start a widget as a command, just type its full name at the command prompt. For instance, typing:
+
+`view_platform_status.py`
+
+Will display a table showing the status of all running Egeria OMAG Server platforms.
+
+![view_platform_status.png](view_platform_status.png)
+
+
+Widgets can also be invoked directly if you are in the same folder as the widget (or the widgets are on the python search path).
+
+`python3 view_platform_status.py`
+
+All of the widgets have optional command line arguments. You can see them by setting the `--h` help flag.
+
+![widget help](widget-help.png)
+
+Most of the widgets allow you to specify an Egeria OMAG Platform, Server (usually a view server), and user identity. 
+If not specified, default values will use the Egeria default configuration with:
+
+* platform = "https://localhost:9443"
+* server = "view-server"
+* user id = a user, such as **erinoverview** from the ficticious [Coco Pharmaceuticals](https://egeria-project.org/practices/coco-pharmaceuticals/) environment.
