+
+Real FederatedStore Example
+=============
+This example uses a simple shell script that can build the Gaffer project, gathers
+default config files (federatedStore.properties, graphConfig.json, OperationDeclarations.json, schema.json)
+and an executable Gaffer Spring REST API. The REST API is then started backed by a real FederatedStore from the current config files.
+Users can change these local config files, target/indexed-disk-cache and then reboot the REST API. 
+The script will keep users changes to config files, it will only re-gather deleted/missing files. 
+This should give a good foundation for users to learn how to configure, interact and launch a real FederatedStore.
+
+## Deployment
+This example does not start or configure a real accumulo cluster. Without you having access to an Accumulo cluster you will not be able to use a Gaffer Accumulo Store.
+
+Assuming you have Java 8, Maven and Git installed, you can build and run the latest version of Gaffer FederatedStore locally by doing the following:
+```bash
+# Clone the Gaffer repository, to reduce the amount you need to download this will only clone the master branch with a depth of 1 so there won't be any history.
+git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/gchq/Gaffer.git #--branch master
+cd Gaffer/example/real-federated-store/
+
+# Run this script from this directory.
+# This will download several maven dependencies such as tomcat.
+./startRealFederatedStore.sh
+```
+
+The rest api will be deployed to localhost:8080/rest.
+
+
+## Example Operations
+Examples can be found at `have-a-go-at-operations`.

+
+Have A Go Operations
+=============
+
+Your FederatedStore  will be empty the first time, so a graph followed by elements will need to be added. Example operations can be found here.
+
+## JSON
+Example json operations can be found at `json-operation-examples`. 
+Copy & paste the files contents into the Swaggers execute panel.
+
+## Curl Command
+Example curl commands within shell scripts can be found at `curl-opertion-examples`. 
+Execute these shell scripts or copy & paste the curl command into your terminal.
+Curl commands with the "alternative" in the name are duplicate examples that contain inline JSON
+instead of reference to a .json file. This allows users to have a go at changing and editing operations in the command line.
+
+```bash
+cd curl-operation-examples/
+./curl_getAllGraphIds.sh
+```
+
+The rest api will be deployed to localhost:8080/rest.
