Enhancement: Support reading backup from a program's standard output
|
|
|
|
When reading data from stdin, the `backup` command could not verify whether the
|
|
corresponding command completed successfully.
|
|
|
|
The `backup` command now supports the `--stdin-from-command` option. When using
|
|
this option, the arguments to `backup` are interpreted as a command. `backup`
|
|
then executes the command and stores its standard output in the backup. This
|
|
enables restic to verify that the command completes with exit code zero. A
|
|
non-zero exit code causes the backup to fail.
|
|
|
|
Example: `restic backup --stdin-from-command mysqldump [...]`
