+In order for the container to be easily created, the deploy.sh script has been developed. This script accepts the following as input parameters:
+
+CONTAINER_NAME, the name of the contaner, default value is akraino-validation-ui
+DB_IP_PORT, the IP and port of the mysql instance, this variable is required
+MYSQL_USER, the mysql user, the default value is 'akraino'
+MYSQL_PASSWORD, the mysql user password, this variable is required
+REGISTRY, the registry of the mysql image, default value is akraino
+NAME, the name of the mysql image, default value is validation
+TAG_PRE, the first part of the image version, default value is ui
+TAG_VER, the last part of the image version, default value is latest
+JENKINS_URL, the URL of the Jenkins instance (http or https must be defined), the default value is 'https://jenkins.akraino.org/'
+JENKINS_USERNAME, the Jenkins user name, the default value is 'demo' (in the context of UI full control loop mode, this parameter must be changed to include a real Jenkins user)
+JENKINS_USER_PASSWORD, the Jenkins user password, the default value is 'demo' (in the context of UI full control loop mode, this parameter must be changed to include a real Jenkins user password)
+JENKINS_JOB_NAME, the name of Jenkins job capable of executing the blueprint validation tests, the default value is 'validation' (in the context of UI full control loop mode, this parameter must be changed to include a real Jenkins job name)
+NEXUS_PROXY, the needed proxy in order for the Nexus server to be reachable, default value is none
+JENKINS_PROXY, the needed proxy in order for the Jenkins server to be reachable, default value is none
+CERTDIR, the directory where the SSL certificates can be found, default value is the working directory where self signed certificates exist only for demo purposes
+ENCRYPTION_KEY, the key that should be used by the AES algorithm for encrypting passwords stored in database, this variable is required
+UI_ADMIN_PASSWORD, the desired Blueprint Validation UI password for the admin user, this variable is required
+TRUST_ALL, the variable that defines whether the UI should trust all certificates or not, default value is false
+USE_NETWORK_HOST, the variable that defines whether the UI container should run in 'network host' mode or not, default value is "false"
+
+Note that, for a functional UI, the following prerequisites are needed:
+
+- The mysql container in up and running state
+- A Jenkins instance capable of running the blueprint validation test (this is optional and is needed only for UI full control loop mode)
+- A Nexus repo in which all the test results are stored.
+
+More info can be found at the UI README file.
+
+In order to deploy the container, the aforementioned script can be executed with the appropriate parameters.
+
+Example (assuming the default variables have been utilized for building the image using the make command):
