borg2 non-AWS s3 repo example anyone?

[tve]

I'm trying to test borg2 on Hetzner, i.e. S3 compatible but for the life of me I can't figure out how to do a repo-create:

./borg-2.0.0b20 -r s3:hetz@https://nbg1.your-objectstorage.com/borg-test/v2.0.0b20 repo-create -e repokey-blake2-chacha20-poly1305
Error: Invalid or unsupported Backend Storage URL: s3:hetz@https://nbg1.your-objectstorage.com/borg-test/v2.0.0b20

I have a ~/.aws/credentials file with something like:

[hetz]
aws_access_key_id=XRM........
aws_secret_access_key=PR1.......

I tried passing the access key and secret in the URL but that didn't go any better. Are there some examples somewhere I can adapt?

Hi @tve
I got it working using Hetzner and minio S3 API. However I'm not using the profile URL instead using the access key and secret directly in the URL so I use: s3:ACCESS_KEY:SECRET@https://nbg1.your-objectstorage.com:443/borg-test/v2.0.0b20 with your provided bucket and path. Please note you have to install boto3 python lib to get it working (pip install botot3 inside your venv).

Let me know if it solved your issue.

I create a PR to address the confusing error message: https://github.com/borgbackup/borgstore/pull/126/changes
