S3-compatible bucket

s3 Writes backups to a bucket in Amazon S3, Cloudflare R2, Backblaze B2, MinIO or another S3-compatible store.

Setup

  1. Create a bucket

    1. In the store's console, create a private bucket, such as pando-backups.
    2. Add a lifecycle rule that deletes incomplete multipart uploads after one day.
    3. Copy the bucket's region and, unless the store is Amazon S3, its S3 API endpoint.

    Settings endpoint, region, bucket, prefix, path_style

  2. Create an access key

    1. Create an access key limited to the bucket, allowed these actions:
      Action
      s3:ListBucket
      s3:PutObject
      s3:GetObject
      s3:DeleteObject
      s3:AbortMultipartUpload
    2. Copy the Access key ID and the Secret access key.

    Settings access_key_id, secret_access_key
