Research direction

Start with the existing small YAML examples in the aws-replicator extension and review how its configuration is currently represented. Document the available configuration clearly, or provide a schema, including the SQS forwarding example from the issue; done means users have a comprehensive reference for customising the extension.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Currently, there are only a few very small examples of how to configure the aws-replicator extension via YAML. This makes it very hard to grok how to properly customise the extension.

It would be incredibly helpful to have something more comprehensive available as a reference.

For instance: Say I have a local SQS queue of dev-sqs-queue and I want to forward all requests to a remote staging-aws-queue - there is no easily available reference for this.
