+To install `@push.rocks/smartbucket`, you need to have Node.js and npm (Node Package Manager) installed. If they are installed, you can add `@push.rocks/smartbucket` to your project by running the following command in your project's root directory:
+
+```bash
+npm install @push.rocks/smartbucket --save
+```
+
+This command will download and install `@push.rocks/smartbucket` along with its required dependencies into your project's `node_modules` directory and save it as a dependency in your project's `package.json` file.

 ## Usage

-Use TypeScript for best in class intellisense.
+`@push.rocks/smartbucket` is a TypeScript module designed to provide simple cloud-independent object storage functionality. It wraps various cloud storage providers such as AWS S3, Google Cloud Storage, and others, offering a unified API to manage storage buckets and objects within those buckets.

-## Contribution
+In this guide, we will delve into the usage of SmartBucket, covering its full range of features from setting up the library to advanced usage scenarios.

-We are always happy for code contributions. If you are not the code contributing type that is ok. Still, maintaining Open Source repositories takes considerable time and thought. If you like the quality of what we do and our modules are useful to you we would appreciate a little monthly contribution: You can [contribute one time](https://lossless.link/contribute-onetime) or [contribute monthly](https://lossless.link/contribute). :)

+### Setting Up

-> MIT licensed | **&copy;** [Lossless GmbH](https://lossless.gmbh)
-| By using this npm module you agree to our [privacy policy](https://lossless.gmbH/privacy)
+First, ensure you are using ECMAScript modules (ESM) and TypeScript in your project for best compatibility. Here's how to import and initialize SmartBucket in a TypeScript file:

-[![repo-footer](https://lossless.gitlab.io/publicrelations/repofooter.svg)](https://maintainedby.lossless.com)
+```typescript
+import {
+  SmartBucket,
+  Bucket,
+  Directory,
+  File
+} from '@push.rocks/smartbucket';
+
+const mySmartBucket = new SmartBucket({
+  accessKey: "yourAccessKey",
+  accessSecret: "yourSecretKey",
+  endpoint: "yourEndpointURL",
+  port: 443,            // Default is 443, can be customized for specific endpoint
+  useSsl: true          // Defaults to true
+});
+```
+
+Make sure to replace `"yourAccessKey"`, `"yourSecretKey"`, and `"yourEndpointURL"` with your actual credentials and endpoint URL. The `port` and `useSsl` options are optional and can be omitted if the defaults are acceptable.
+
+### Creating a New Bucket
+
+To create a new bucket:
+
+```typescript
+async function createBucket(bucketName: string) {
+  try {
+    const myBucket: Bucket = await mySmartBucket.createBucket(bucketName);
+    console.log(`Bucket ${bucketName} created successfully.`);
+  } catch (error) {
+    console.error("Error creating bucket:", error);
+  }
+}
+
+// Use the function
+createBucket("exampleBucket");
+```
+
+Bucket names must be unique across the storage service.
+
+### Listing Buckets
+
+Currently, SmartBucket does not include a direct method to list all buckets, but you can access the underlying client provided by the cloud storage SDK to perform such operations, depending on the SDK's capabilities.
+
+### Working with Files
+
+#### Uploading Files
+
+To upload an object to a bucket:
+
+```typescript
+async function uploadFile(bucketName: string, filePath: string, fileContent: Buffer | string) {
+  const myBucket: Bucket = await mySmartBucket.getBucketByName(bucketName);
+  if (myBucket) {
+    await myBucket.fastPut({ path: filePath, contents: fileContent });
+    console.log(`File uploaded to ${bucketName} at ${filePath}`);
+  } else {
+    console.error(`Bucket ${bucketName} does not exist.`);
+  }
+}
+
+// Use the function
+uploadFile("exampleBucket", "path/to/object.txt", "Hello, world!");
+```
+
+#### Downloading Files
+
+To download an object:
+
+```typescript
+async function downloadFile(bucketName: string, filePath: string) {
+  const myBucket: Bucket = await mySmartBucket.getBucketByName(bucketName);
+  if (myBucket) {
+    const fileContent: Buffer = await myBucket.fastGet({ path: filePath });
+    console.log("Downloaded file content:", fileContent.toString());
+  } else {
+    console.error(`Bucket ${bucketName} does not exist.`);
+  }
+}
+
+// Use the function
+downloadFile("exampleBucket", "path/to/object.txt");
+```
+
+#### Deleting Files
+
+To delete an object from a bucket:
+
+```typescript
+async function deleteFile(bucketName: string, filePath: string) {
+  const myBucket: Bucket = await mySmartBucket.getBucketByName(bucketName);
+  if (myBucket) {
+    await myBucket.fastRemove({ path: filePath });
+    console.log(`File at ${filePath} deleted from ${bucketName}.`);
+  } else {
+    console.error(`Bucket ${bucketName} does not exist.`);
+  }
+}
+
+// Use the function
+deleteFile("exampleBucket", "path/to/object.txt");
+```
+
+#### Streaming Files
+
+SmartBucket allows you to work with file streams, which can be useful for handling large files. 
+
+To read a file as a stream:
+
+```typescript
+import { ReplaySubject } from '@push.rocks/smartrx';
+
+async function readFileStream(bucketName: string, filePath: string) {
+  const myBucket: Bucket = await mySmartBucket.getBucketByName(bucketName);
+  if (myBucket) {
+    const fileStream: ReplaySubject<Buffer> = await myBucket.fastGetStream({ path: filePath });
+    fileStream.subscribe({
+      next(chunk: Buffer) {
+        console.log("Chunk received:", chunk.toString());
+      },
+      complete() {
+        console.log("File read completed.");
+      },
+      error(err) {
+        console.error("Error reading file stream:", err);
+      }
+    });
+  } else {
+    console.error(`Bucket ${bucketName} does not exist.`);
+  }
+}
+
+// Use the function
+readFileStream("exampleBucket", "path/to/object.txt");
+```
+
+To write a file as a stream:
+
+```typescript
+import { Readable } from 'stream';
+
+async function writeFileStream(bucketName: string, filePath: string, readableStream: Readable) {
+  const myBucket: Bucket = await mySmartBucket.getBucketByName(bucketName);
+  if (myBucket) {
+    await myBucket.fastPutStream({ path: filePath, dataStream: readableStream });
+    console.log(`File streamed to ${bucketName} at ${filePath}`);
+  } else {
+    console.error(`Bucket ${bucketName} does not exist.`);
+  }
+}
+
+// Create a readable stream from a string
+const readable = new Readable();
+readable.push('Hello world streamed as a file!');
+readable.push(null); // End of stream
+
+// Use the function
+writeFileStream("exampleBucket", "path/to/streamedObject.txt", readable);
+```
+
+### Working with Directories
+
+`@push.rocks/smartbucket` offers abstractions for directories within buckets for easier object management. You can create, list, and delete directories using the `Directory` class.
+
+To list the contents of a directory:
+
+```typescript
+async function listDirectoryContents(bucketName: string, directoryPath: string) {
+  const myBucket: Bucket = await mySmartBucket.getBucketByName(bucketName);
+  if (myBucket) {
+    const baseDirectory: Directory = await myBucket.getBaseDirectory();
+    const targetDirectory: Directory = await baseDirectory.getSubDirectoryByName(directoryPath);
+    
+    console.log('Listing directories:');
+    const directories = await targetDirectory.listDirectories();
+    directories.forEach(dir => {
+      console.log(`- ${dir.name}`);

+    files.forEach(file => {
+      console.log(`- ${file.name}`);
+    });

+    console.error(`Bucket ${bucketName} does not exist.`);
+  }
+}
+
+// Use the function
+listDirectoryContents("exampleBucket", "some/directory/path");
+```
+
+To create a file within a directory:
+
+```typescript
+async function createFileInDirectory(bucketName: string, directoryPath: string, fileName: string, fileContent: string) {
+  const myBucket: Bucket = await mySmartBucket.getBucketByName(bucketName);
+  if (myBucket) {
+    const baseDirectory: Directory = await myBucket.getBaseDirectory();
+    const targetDirectory: Directory = await baseDirectory.getSubDirectoryByName(directoryPath);
+    await targetDirectory.createEmptyFile(fileName); // Create an empty file
+    const file = new File({ directoryRefArg: targetDirectory, fileName });
+    await file.updateWithContents({ contents: fileContent });
+    console.log(`File created: ${fileName}`);
+  } else {
+    console.error(`Bucket ${bucketName} does not exist.`);
+  }
+}
+
+// Use the function
+createFileInDirectory("exampleBucket", "some/directory", "newfile.txt", "Hello, world!");
+```
+
+### Advanced Features
+
+#### Bucket Policies
+
+Manage bucket policies to control access permissions. This feature depends on the policies provided by the storage service (e.g., AWS S3, MinIO).
+
+#### Object Metadata
+
+Retrieve and modify object metadata. Metadata can be useful for storing additional information about an object.
+
+To retrieve metadata:
+
+```typescript
+async function getObjectMetadata(bucketName: string, filePath: string) {
+  const myBucket: Bucket = await mySmartBucket.getBucketByName(bucketName);
+  if (myBucket) {
+    const metadata = await mySmartBucket.minioClient.statObject(bucketName, filePath);
+    console.log("Object metadata:", metadata);
+  } else {
+    console.error(`Bucket ${bucketName} does not exist.`);
+  }
+}
+
+// Use the function
+getObjectMetadata("exampleBucket", "path/to/object.txt");
+```
+
+To update metadata:
+
+```typescript
+async function updateObjectMetadata(bucketName: string, filePath: string, newMetadata: { [key: string]: string }) {
+  const myBucket: Bucket = await mySmartBucket.getBucketByName(bucketName);
+  if (myBucket) {
+    await myBucket.copyObject({
+      objectKey: filePath,
+      nativeMetadata: newMetadata,
+      deleteExistingNativeMetadata: false,
+    });
+    console.log(`Metadata updated for ${filePath}`);
+  } else {
+    console.error(`Bucket ${bucketName} does not exist.`);
+  }
+}
+
+// Use the function
+updateObjectMetadata("exampleBucket", "path/to/object.txt", {
+  customKey: "customValue"
+});
+```
+
+#### Cloud Agnostic
+
+`@push.rocks/smartbucket` is designed to work with multiple cloud providers, allowing for easier migration or multi-cloud strategies. This means you can switch from one provider to another with minimal changes to your codebase.
+
+Remember, each cloud provider has specific features and limitations. `@push.rocks/smartbucket` aims to abstract common functionalities, but always refer to the specific cloud provider's documentation for advanced features or limitations.
+
+This guide covers the basic to advanced scenarios of using `@push.rocks/smartbucket`. For further details, refer to the API documentation and examples.
