## Reporter
-Metrics can be exposed to an external system by configuring a reporter in
`conf/flink-conf.yaml`.
-
-- `metrics.reporter.class`: The class of the reporter to use.
- - Example: org.apache.flink.metrics.reporter.JMXReporter
-- `metrics.reporter.arguments`: A list of named parameters that are passed
to the reporter.
- - Example: --host localhost --port 9010
-- `metrics.reporter.interval`: The interval between reports.
- - Example: 10 SECONDS
+Metrics can be exposed to an external system by configuring a one or
several reporters in `conf/flink-conf.yaml`.
+
+- `metrics.reporters`: The list of named reporters, i.e. "foo,bar".
+- `metrics.reporter.<name>.<config>`: Generic setting `<config>` for the
reporter named `<name>`.
+- `metrics.reporter.<name>.class`: The reporter class to use for the
reporter named `<name>`.
+- `metrics.reporter.<name>.interval`: The reporter interval to use for the
reporter named `<name>`.
+
+All reporters must at least have the `class` config, some allow specifying
a reporting `interval`. Bellow,
+we will list more settings specific to each reporter.
+
+Example reporter configuration for using the built-in JMX reporter:

> We should allow specifying multiple reporters. A rough sketch of how the
> configuration should look like is this:
> {code}
> metrics.reporters = foo,bar
> metrics.reporter.foo.class = JMXReporter.class
> metrics.reporter.foo.port = 42-117
> metrics.reporter.bar.class = GangliaReporter.class
> metrics.reporter.bar.port = 512
> metrics.reporter.bar.whatever = 2
> {code}
