Destination is given by -url flag, witch works in combination with environment variables to support various cloud providers. Currently supported ones are:

URL for targeting Azure Blob:

azblob://my-container 

Credentials are found in the environment variables AZURE_STORAGE_ACCOUNT plus at least one of AZURE_STORAGE_KEY and AZURE_STORAGE_SAS_TOKEN.

You can use local folder instead of cloud storage if you use file:// url. You will have to provide absolute path, and path MUST exist.

You can use Google Cloud Storage with url that looks like this:

gs://my-bucket 

Before being able to access GCS you have to login by executing:

 gcloud auth login 

The following query parameters are supported:

- access_id: sets Options.GoogleAccessID - private_key_path: path to read for Options.PrivateKey 

For AWS S3 URL must contain region where bucket is located like this:

And credentials can be provided in following environment variables:

# Access Key ID AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=AKID AWS_ACCESS_KEY=AKID # only read if AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID is not set. # Secret Access Key AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=SECRET AWS_SECRET_KEY=SECRET=SECRET # only read if AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY is not set. # Session Token AWS_SESSION_TOKEN=TOKEN # Optionaly you can provide region in environment also AWS_REGION=us-east-1
