+# AIL-framework-LXD
+This installer is based on the [LXD](https://canonical.com/lxd) container manager and can be used to install AIL on Linux. It also supports the installation of [Lacus](https://github.com/ail-project/lacus) a crawler for the AIL framework.
+
+## Requirements
+- [LXD](https://canonical.com/lxd) 5.19
+- jq 1.6
+
+## Usage
+Make sure you have all the requirements installed on your system. 
+
+### Interactive mode
+Run the INSTALL.sh script with the --interactive flag to enter the interactive mode, which guides you through the configuration process:
+```bash
+bash INSTALL.sh --interactive
+```
+
+### Non-interactive mode
+If you want to install AIL without the interactive mode, you can use the following command:
+```bash
+bash INSTALL.sh [OPTIONS]
+```
+
+The following options are available:
+| Flag                            | Default Value           | Description                                                              |
+| ------------------------------- | ----------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
+| `-i`, `--interactive`           | N/A                     | Activates an interactive installation process.                           |
+| `--project <project_name>`      | `AIL-<creation_time>`   | Name of the LXD project for organizing and running the containers.       |
+| `--ail-name <container_name>`   | `AIL-<creation_time>`   | The name of the container responsible for running the AIL application.   |
+| `--no-lacus`                    | `false`                 | Determines whether to install the Lacus container.                       |
+| `--lacus-name <container_name>` | `LACUS-<creation_time>` | The name of the container responsible for running the Lacus application. |
+| `--partition <partition>`       | `<none>`                | Dedicated partition for LXD-project storage.                             |
