+Mach Telemetry
+==============
+
+`Glean <https://mozilla.github.io/glean/>`_ is used to collect telemetry, and uses the metrics
+defined in the ``metrics.yaml`` files in-tree.
+These files are all documented in a single :ref:`generated file here<metrics>`.
+
+.. toctree::
+ :maxdepth: 1
+
+ metrics
+
+Adding Metrics to a new Command
+===============================
+
+If you would like to submit telemetry metrics from your mach ``@Command``, you should take two steps:
+
+#. Parameterize your ``@Command`` annotation with ``metrics_path``.
+#. Use the ``command_context.metrics`` handle provided by ``MachCommandBase``
+
+For example::
+
+ METRICS_PATH = os.path.abspath(os.path.join(__file__, '..', '..', 'metrics.yaml'))
+
+ @Command('custom-command', metrics_path=METRICS_PATH)
+ def custom_command(command_context):
+ command_context.metrics.custom.foo.set('bar')
+
+Updating Generated Metrics Docs
+===============================
+
+When a ``metrics.yaml`` is added/changed/removed, :ref:`the metrics document<metrics>` will need to be updated::
+
+ ./mach doc mach-telemetry
