+# Build
+
+This plugin can be built with Bazel.
+
+Clone (or link) this plugin to the `plugins` directory of Gerrit's source tree.
+Put the external dependency Bazel build file into the Gerrit /plugins directory,
+replacing the existing empty one.
+
+```
+  cd gerrit/plugins
+  ln -fs metrics-reporter-cloudwatch/external_plugin_deps.bzl .
+```
+
+Then run:
+
+```bash
+  bazelisk build plugins/metrics-reporter-cloudwatch
+```
+
+in the root of Gerrit's source tree to build
+The output is created in:
+
+```
+  bazel-bin/plugins/metrics-reporter-cloudwatch/metrics-reporter-cloudwatch.jar
+```
+
+# Test
+
+
+You can run tests with bazelisk, as such:
+
+```bash
+bazelisk plugins/metrics-reporter-cloudwatch:metrics-reporter-cloudwatch_tests

+# Configuration
+
+The configuration of the @PLUGIN@ plugin is done in the `[plugin "@PLUGIN@"]`
+section of the `gerrit.config` file.
+
+## Authentication
+
+To make requests to AWS, this plugin uses the default AWS credential provider
+chain. This means that the java SDK will try to find the relevant AWS
+credentials (and region) by looking, in order to environment variables
+(`AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID` and `AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY`), then system properties
+`aws.accessKeyId` and `aws.secretKey`, then `Web Identity Token`, your
+`~/.aws/credentials`, and so on.
+
+Find the all the details about the default provider chain
+[here](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/sdk-for-java/v1/developer-guide/credentials.html) and
+[here](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/sdk-for-java/v1/developer-guide/setup-credentials.html)
+
+## Metrics Reporter
+
+* `plugin.@PLUGIN@.dryRun` (Optional): the reporter will log.DEBUG the metrics,
+instead of doing a real POST to CloudWatch.
+    * Type: Boolean
+    * Default: false
+    * Example: true
+
+There will also be a log entry at WARN level to inform the plugin is running in
+dry-run mode:
+
+```** Reporter is running in 'DRY RUN' mode **```
+
+To observe the metrics increase the log level, as such:
+
+```bash
+ssh -p <port> admin@<server> gerrit logging set-level debug io.github.azagniotov.metrics.reporter.cloudwatch.CloudWatchReporter
+```
+
+* `plugin.@PLUGIN@.namespace` (Optional): The CloudWatch namespace for Gerrit metrics.
+    * Type: String
+    * Default: "gerrit"
+    * AWS Docs: [Namespaces](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonCloudWatch/latest/monitoring/cloudwatch_concepts.html#Namespace)
+    * Example: "my-gerrit-metrics"
+
+* `plugin.@PLUGIN@.rate` (Optional): The rate at which metrics should be fired to AWS.
+    * Type: Time
+    * Default: "60s"
+    * Example: 5m
+
+* `plugin.@PLUGIN@.initialDelay` (Optional): The time to delay the first reporting
+execution.
+    * Type: Time
+    * Default: "0"
+    * Example: 60 seconds
