# Backblaze Backup Tool

This is a tool to backup files and directories to Backblaze.

## Prerequisites

- Go 1.16 or higher
- Backblaze account with a bucket created
- Environment variables `BB_ID` and `BB_KEY` set with your Backblaze account ID and application key respectively

## Building the Application

You can build the application using the provided Makefile. 

### On Linux:

```bash
make rebuild
```

### On Windows:

You will need to have make installed. If you don't have it, you can install it through Chocolatey:
```bash
choco install make
```

Then you can run the same command as on Linux:
```bash
make rebuild
```

This will create a binary in the bin directory.


## Running the Application

You can run the application directly from the command line. Here's how to do it:
```bash
./bin/backblaze-backup --bucket "your-bucket-name" --dir "/path/to/directory"
```

Or if you want to upload a single file:
```bash
./bin/backblaze-backup --bucket "your-bucket-name" --file "/path/to/file"
```

You can also use the **`local_run`** command in the Makefile to run the application with a test directory and bucket:

```bash
make local_run DIR="/home/user/test-upload" BUCKET="my-test-bucket"
```

This will run the application with the directory **/home/user/test-upload** and the bucket **my-test-bucket**.

## Flags

    --bucket: The name of your Backblaze bucket
    --dir: The absolute path of the directory you want to upload to Backblaze
    --file: The absolute path of the file you want to upload to Backblaze

Note: You must select just one option, dir or file.

Please replace `"your-bucket-name"`, `"/path/to/directory"`, and `"/path/to/file"` with your actual bucket name and paths.
