 [![Coverage Status](https://coveralls.io/repos/github/FreifunkBremen/respond-collector/badge.svg?branch=master)](https://coveralls.io/github/FreifunkBremen/respond-collector?branch=master)
 
 `respond-collector` is a respondd client that fetches, stores and publishes information about a Freifunk network. The goals:
-* Generating JSON for [MeshViewer](https://github.com/ffnord/meshviewer) (Works with branch [JSONv2](https://github.com/FreifunkBremen/meshviewer/tree/JSONv2))
+* Generating JSON for [Meshviewer](https://github.com/ffrgb/meshviewer)
 * Storing statistics in [InfluxDB](https://influxdata.com/) to be analyzed by [Grafana](http://grafana.org/)
-* Provide information via JSON-APIs
+* Provide a little webserver for a standalone installation with a meshviewer
 
 ## Usage
 ```
 Usage of ./respond-collector:
   -config path/to/config.toml
 ```
+## Configuration
+Read comments in [config_example.toml](config_example.toml) for more information.
+
+## Live
+* [meshviewer](https://map.bremen.freifunk.net) **Freifunk Bremen** with a patch to show state-version of `nodes.json`
+* [grafana](https://grafana.bremen.freifunk.net)  **Freifunk Bremen** show data of InfluxDB
+
+## How it works
 
-## Development
-### respond
 It sends the `gluon-neighbour-info` request and collects the answers.
 
 It will send UDP packets with multicast group `ff02:0:0:0:0:0:2:1001` and port `1001`.
 
-### nodes.Nodes
-It caches the information of the nodes and will save them periodical to a JSON file.
-The current nodes are saved default under `nodes.json`.
+If a node does not answer, it will request with the last know address under the port `1001`.
+
