-Setting up Databases

- databases or create a ``~/.bob_bio_databases.txt`` file.

-The current system readily supports the following freely available datasets:

+==============
+ Installation
+==============
+
+The installation of this package is divided in 2-parts. Installation of the
+package and its software dependencies and the installation of databases.
+
+
+Package Installation
+--------------------
+
+To install this package, first follow our `installation`_ instructions. Then,
+using the Python interpreter provided by the distribution, bootstrap and
+buildout this package:
+
+
+.. code-block:: sh
+
+ $ python bootstrap-buildout.py
+ $ ./bin/buildout
+
+
+Sphinx Documentation Building
+-----------------------------
+
+Once the package is installed, you may re-build this documentation locally by
+running:
+
+.. code-block:: sh
+
+ $ ./bin/sphinx-build doc html
+
+The resulting HTML documentation will be output inside the directory `html`.
+
+
+Setting up Databases
+--------------------
+
+In order to run vein recognition algorithms using this package, you'll need to
+make sure to download the raw files corresponding to the databases you'd like
+to process. The raw files are not distributed with Bob_ software as biometric
+data is, to most countries, considered sensible data that cannot be obtained
+without explicit licensing from a data controller. You must visit the websites
+below, sign the license agreements and then download the data before trying out
+to run the baselines.
+
+.. note::
+
+ If you're at the Idiap Research Institute in Switzlerand, the datasets in
+ the baselines mentioned in this guide are already downloaded and
+ pre-installed on our shared file system. You don't need to re-download
+ databases or create a ``~/.bob_bio_databases.txt`` file.
+
+
+The current system readily supports the following freely available datasets:
+
+* ``vera``: `Vera Fingervein`_
+* ``utfvp``: `UTFVP`_
+* ``put``: `PUT`_ Vein Dataset
+
+
+After downloading the databases, annotate the base directories in which they
+are installed. Then, follow the instructions in
+:ref:`bob.bio.base.installation` to let this framework know where databases are
+located on your system.
+
+
+Development
+-----------
+
+If you're developing this package, you may automatically clone all necessary
+Bob_ repositories on your local package installation. This allows you to build
+against an environment which contains all of our dependencies_, but no
+previously installed Bob_ packages. To do so, use the buildout recipe in
+``develop.cfg`` just after bootstraping:
+
+.. code-block:: sh
+
+ $ python bootstrap-buildout.py
+ $ ./bin/buildout -c develop.cfg
+
+
+Database SQL support files
+==========================
+
+If you installed all packages from scratch like above, you'll need to download
+the SQL support files of some of the database front-ends available in this
+package. This operation can be easily done like this:
+
+.. code-block:: sh
+
+ $ ./bin/bob_dbmanage.py all download
+
+
+.. include:: links.rst
