+# Environment
+
+> ⚠ Available since version `v1.4.0`
+
+Sometimes it's favorable not having the encryption keys in the config files.
+For that `autorestic` allows passing the env variables to backend password as `ENV` variables, or through an env file.
+You can also pass whatever `env` variable to restic by prefixing it with `AUTORESTIC_[BACKEND NAME]_`.
+
+> ℹ️ Env variables and file overwrite the config file in the following order:
+>
+> Env Variables > Env File (`.autorestic.env`) > Config file (`.autorestic.yaml`)
+
+## Env file
+
+Alternatively `autorestic` can load an env file, located next to `.autorestic.yml` called `.autorestic.env`.
+
+```
+AUTORESTIC_FOO_RESTIC_PASSWORD=secret123
+```
+
+### Example with repository password
+
+The syntax for the `ENV` variables is as follows: `AUTORESTIC_[BACKEND NAME]_RESTIC_PASSWORD`.
+
+```yaml | autorestic.yaml
+backend:
+  foo:
+    type: ...
+    path: ...
+    key: secret123 # => AUTORESTIC_FOO_RESTIC_PASSWORD=secret123
+```
+
+This means we could remove `key: secret123` from `.autorestic.yaml` and execute as follows:
+
+```bash
+AUTORESTIC_FOO_RESTIC_PASSWORD=secret123 autorestic backup ...
+```
+
+### Example with Backblaze B2

+```yaml | autorestic.yaml

+    key: myPassword
+    env:
+      B2_ACCOUNT_ID: 123
+      B2_ACCOUNT_KEY: 456

+
+You could create an `.autorestic.env` or pass the following `ENV` variables to autorestic:

+# Upgrade
+
+Autorestic can upgrade itself! Super handy right? Simply run autorestic upgrade and we will check for you if there are updates for restic and autorestic and install them if necessary.
+
+```bash
+autorestic upgrade

+## Aliases
+
+A handy tool for more advanced configurations is to use yaml aliases.
+These must be specified under the global `extras` key in the `.autorestic.yml` config file.
+Aliases allow to reuse snippets of config throughout the same file.
+
+The following example shows how the locations `a` and `b` share the same hooks and forget policies.
+
+```yaml | .autorestic.yml

+3. `after` hook
+4. - `success` hook if no errors were found
+   - `failure` hook if at least one error was encountered
+
+If the `before` hook encounters errors the backup and `after` hooks will be skipped and only the `failed` hooks will run.
+
+## Environment variables
+
+All hooks are exposed to the `AUTORESTIC_LOCATION` environment variable, which contains the location name.
+
+The `after` and `success` hooks have access to additional information with the following syntax:
+
+```bash
+AUTORESTIC_[TYPE]_[I]
+AUTORESTIC_[TYPE]_[BACKEND_NAME]
+```
+
+Every type of metadata is appended with both the name of the backend associated with and the number in which the backends where executed.

+- `SNAPSHOT_ID`
+- `PARENT_SNAPSHOT_ID`
+- `FILES_ADDED`
+- `FILES_CHANGED`
+- `FILES_UNMODIFIED`
+- `DIRS_ADDED`
+- `DIRS_CHANGED`
+- `DIRS_UNMODIFIED`
+- `ADDED_SIZE`
+- `PROCESSED_FILES`
+- `PROCESSED_SIZE`
+- `PROCESSED_DURATION`
+
+#### Example
+
+Assuming you have a location `bar` that backs up to a single backend named `foo` you could expect the following env variables:
+
+```bash
+AUTORESTIC_LOCATION=bar
+AUTORESTIC_FILES_ADDED_0=42
+AUTORESTIC_FILES_ADDED_FOO=42

+# Options
+
+For the `backup` and `forget` commands you can pass any native flags to `restic`. In addition you can specify flags for every command with `all`.
+
+If flags don't start with `-` they will get prefixed with `--`.
+
+Flags without arguments can be set to `true`. They will be handled accordingly.
+
+> ℹ️ It is also possible to set options for an [entire backend](/backend/options) or globally (see below).
+
+```yaml
+locations:
+  foo:
+    # ...
+    options:
+      all:
+        some-flag: 123
+        # Equivalent to
+        --some-flag: 123
+      backup:
+        boolean-flag: true
+        tag:
+          - foo
+          - bar
+```
+
+## Example
+
+In this example, whenever `autorestic` runs `restic backup` it will append a `--tag abc --tag` to the native command.
+
+```yaml
+locations:
+  foo:
+    path: ...
+    to: ...
+    options:
+      backup:
+        tag:
+          - foo
+          - bar
+```
+
+## Global Options
+
+It is possible to specify global flags that will be run every time restic is invoked. To do so specify them under `global` in your config file.
+
+```yaml
+global:
+  all:
+    cache-dir: ~/restic
+  backup:
+    tag:
