"""
Store-type extension that writes data to Amazon S3.

This extension requires a new configuration section <amazons3> and is intended
to be run immediately after the standard stage action, replacing the standard
store action.  Aside from its own configuration, it requires the options and
staging configuration sections in the standard Cedar Backup configuration file.
Since it is intended to replace the store action, it does not rely on any store
configuration.

The underlying functionality relies on the U{AWS CLI interface
<http://aws.amazon.com/documentation/cli/>}.  Before you use this extension,
you need to set up your Amazon S3 account and configure the AWS CLI connection
per Amazon's documentation.  The extension assumes that the backup is being
executed as root, and switches over to the configured backup user to
communicate with AWS.  So, make sure you configure AWS CLI as the backup user
and not root.

You can optionally configure Cedar Backup to encrypt data before sending it
to S3.  To do that, provide a complete command line using the C{${input}} and
C{${output}} variables to represent the original input file and the encrypted
output file.  This command will be executed as the backup user.  

For instance, you can use something like this with GPG::

   /usr/bin/gpg -c --no-use-agent --batch --yes --passphrase-file /home/backup/.passphrase -o ${output} ${input}

The GPG mechanism depends on a strong passphrase for security.  One way to
generate a strong passphrase is using your system random number generator, i.e.::

   dd if=/dev/urandom count=20 bs=1 | xxd -ps

(See U{StackExchange <http://security.stackexchange.com/questions/14867/gpg-encryption-security>}
for more details about that advice.) If you decide to use encryption, make sure
you save off the passphrase in a safe place, so you can get at your backup data
later if you need to.  And obviously, make sure to set permissions on the
passphrase file so it can only be read by the backup user.

This extension was written for and tested on Linux.  It will throw an exception
if run on Windows.
