+# DIDComm Mediator Integration Environment Setup
+
+This guide provides step-by-step instructions to set up the integration environment for deploying, testing, and interacting with the Rust-based DIDComm mediator server.
+
+## Prerequisites
+Before you begin, ensure the following are installed on your system:
+- Docker: version 20+([install docker](https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/debian/))
+- Rust: latest stable version ([install rust](https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install))
+- MongoDB: latest stable version ([install mongodb](https://www.mongodb.com/docs/manual/tutorial/install-mongodb-on-ubuntu/))
+
+This documentation assumes you have clone the [mediator](https://github.com/adorsys/didcomm-mediator-rs) and are in the root of the project
+
+## step 1: Setup the environment variables
+Modify the ```.env``` file with the right values for the variables
+
+## Step 2: Start The Environment
+
+```sh
+ docker-compose up -d
+```
+## Step 3: Test Connectivity
+Use a tool like Postman or curl to verify that the server is running and responding.
+```sh 
+curl -X GET http://0.0.0.0:8080/ \
+-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+```
+
+## Step 4: Logging And Monitoring
+to monitor the logs run the command
+```sh 
+docker logs -f didcomm-mediator
+```
+
+## Step 5: Cleanup
+To Stop and remove the environment
+```sh
+docker-compose down
+```
