# Environment
|
|
|
|
> ⚠ Available since version `v1.3.0`
|
|
|
|
Sometimes it's favorable not having the encryption keys in the config files.
|
|
For that `autorestic` allows passing the backend keys as `ENV` variables, or through an env file.
|
|
|
|
The syntax for the `ENV` variables is as follows: `AUTORESTIC_[BACKEND NAME]_KEY`.
|
|
|
|
```yaml | autorestic.yaml
|
|
backend:
|
|
foo:
|
|
type: ...
|
|
path: ...
|
|
key: secret123 # => AUTORESTIC_FOO_KEY=secret123
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Example
|
|
|
|
This means we could remove `key: secret123` from `.autorestic.yaml` and execute as follows:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
AUTORESTIC_FOO_KEY=secret123 autorestic backup ...
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Env file
|
|
|
|
Alternatively `autorestic` can load an env file, located next to `autorestic.yml` called `.autorestic.env`.
|
|
|
|
```| .autorestic.env
|
|
AUTORESTIC_FOO_KEY=secret123
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
after that you can simply use `autorestic` as your are used to.
