QUERY CACHING

The list-contents command uses the same query caching mechanisms as bupstash-list(1), check that page for more information on the query cache.

OPTIONS

    •   -r, --repository REPO: The repository to connect to, , may be of the form ssh://$SERVER/$PATH for remote repositories if ssh access is configured. If not specified, is set to BUPSTASH_REPOSITORY.

    •   -k, --key KEY: Key used to decrypt data and metadata. If not set, defaults to BUPSTASH_KEY.

    •   --format FORMAT: Set output format to one of the following 'human', 'jsonl'.

    •   --query-cache PATH: Path to the query-cache file, defaults to one of the following, in order, provided the appropriate environment variables are set, $BUPSTASH_QUERY_CACHE, $XDG_CACHE_HOME/.cache/bupstash/bupstash.qcache or $HOME/.cache/bupstash/bupstash.qcache.

    •   --pick PATH: List a sub-directory of the query.

    •   --utc-timestamps: Display and search against timestamps in utc time instead of local time.

        •   --no-progress: Suppress progress indicators (Progress indicators are also suppressed when stderr is not an interactive terminal).

    •   -q, --quiet: Be quiet, implies --no-progress.

    •   BUPSTASH_REPOSITORY_COMMAND: A command to run to connect to an instance of bupstash-serve(1). This allows more complex connections to the repository for less common use cases.

    •   BUPSTASH_KEY: Path to a primary key that will be used for decrypting data and metadata.

    •   BUPSTASH_KEY_COMMAND: A command to run that must print the key data, can be used instead of BUPSTASH_KEY to fetch the key from arbitrary locations such as the network or other secret storage.

    •   BUPSTASH_QUERY_CACHE: Path to the query cache file to use.

EXAMPLES

  Get an item with a specific id from the repository

    $ bupstash list-contents id="14eb*"
    drwxr-xr-x 0     2020/10/30 13:32:04 .
    -rw-r--r-- 1967  2020/10/30 13:32:04 data.txt
