⚙️ General

-c, --config

Specify the config file to be used. If omitted crestic will search for a crestic.yaml in the current directory, your home folder and your config folder:

  • ./crestic.yaml
  • ~/crestic.yaml
  • ~/.crestic/crestic.yaml
  • ~/.config/crestic/crestic.yaml
crestic -c /path/to/my/config.yaml backup --all

--log-level

Set the log level. Available levels: debug, info, warn, error (default: info).

crestic --log-level debug backup --all

--ci

Run the CLI in CI Mode, which means there will be no interactivity, no colors and automatically sets verbose logging.

This can be useful when you want to run cron e.g. as all the output will be saved.

crestic --ci backup --all

--json

Output logs in JSON format. Useful for log aggregation systems.

crestic --json backup --all

--print-commands

Print executed shell commands. Useful for debugging.

crestic --print-commands backup --all
