+# Generic SLO Evaluator
+
+## Execution
+
+For development:
+
+```sh
+uvicorn main:app --reload
+```
+
+## Build the docker image:
+
+```sh
+docker build . -t theodolite-evaluator
+```
+
+Run the Docker image:
+
+```sh
+docker run -p 80:80 theodolite-evaluator
+```
+
+## Configuration
+
+You can set the `HOST` and the `PORT` (and a lot of more parameters) via environment variables. Default is `0.0.0.0:80`.
+For more information see the [Gunicorn/FastAPI Docker docs](https://github.com/tiangolo/uvicorn-gunicorn-fastapi-docker#advanced-usage).
+
+## API Documentation
+
+The running webserver provides a REST API with the following route:
+
+* /
+  * Method: POST
+  * Body:
+    * results
+      * metric-metadata
+      * values
+    * metadata
+      * warmup
+      * queryAggregation
+      * repetitionAggregation
+      * operator
+      * threshold
+
+The body of the request must be a JSON string that satisfies the following conditions:
+
+* **dropped records**: This property is based on the [Range Vector type](https://www.prometheus.io/docs/prometheus/latest/querying/api/#range-vectors) from Prometheus and must have the following JSON *structure*:
+
+    ```json
+    {
+        "results": [
+            [
+                {
+                    "metric": {
+                        "<label-name>": "<label-value>"
+                    },
+                    "values": [
+                        [
+                            <unix_timestamp>, // 1.634624989695E9
+                            "<sample_value>" // integer
+                        ]
+                    ]
+                }
+            ]
+        ],
+        "metadata": {
+            "warmup": 60,
+            "queryAggregation": "max",
+            "repetitionAggregation": "median",
+            "operator": "lt",
+            "threshold": 2000000
+        }
+    }
+    ```
+
+### description
+
+* results:
+  * metric-metadata:
+    * Labels of this metric. The `generic` slo checker does not use labels in the calculation of the service level objective.
+  * results
+    * The `<unix_timestamp>` provided as the first element of each element in the "values" array must be the timestamp of the measurement value in seconds (with optional decimal precision)
+    * The `<sample_value>` must be the measurement value as string.
+* metadata: For the calculation of the service level objective require metadata.
+  * **warmup**: Specifies the warmup time in seconds that are ignored for evaluating the SLO.
+  * **queryAggregation**: Specifies the function used to aggregate a query. 
+  * **repetitionAggregation**: Specifies the function used to aggregate a the results of multiple query aggregations.
+  * **operator**: Specifies how the result should be checked agains a threshold. Possible values are `lt`, `lte`, `gt` and `gte`.
+  * **threshold**: Must be an unsigned integer that specifies the threshold for the SLO evaluation.
