After migrating from 0.3 to 0.4, it is possible to migrate to object storage. This can be useful if
hosting in a cloud environment, since object storage is generally far cheaper than block storage.
There's a few required configuration options for object storage. I will try to explain:
- endpoint: this is the URL at which the object storage is available. Generally this URL will look
like `https://<bucket-name>.<region>.s3.example.com`, but sometimes it could look like
`https://<region>.s3.example.com` or just `https://s3.example.com`
- bucket-name: this is name of the "bucket" in which the objects will reside. A bucket must already
exist for the migration to work - pict-rs will not create the bucket on it's own. It is up to
you to create a bucket with your storage provider ahead of time.
- region: this is the "location" in which your bucket resides. It may not be meaningful depending on
your cloud provider, but it is always required.
- access-key: this is a secret your cloud provider will give to you in order to access the bucket
- secret-key: this is a second secret your cloud provider will give to you in order to access the
bucket
The command will look something like this:
```bash
$ pict-rs \

Here's an example based on my own object storage that I host myself on kubernetes with
[`garage`](https://garagehq.deuxfleurs.fr/):
```bash
$ pict-rs \
migrate-store \
filesystem \
object-storage \
--use-path-style \
-e http://garage-daemon.garage.svc:3900 \
-b pict-rs \
-r garage \
-a <redacted> \
-s <redacted>
```
Here's an example based on a backblaze b2 user's configuration;
```bash
$ pict-rs \
migrate-store \
filesystem \
object-storage \
--use-path-style \
-e https://s3.us-east-005.backblazeb2.com \
-r us-east-005 \
-b SitenamePictrs \
-a redacted \
-s redacted
```
After you've completed the migration, update your pict-rs configuration to use object storage. If
you configure using environment variables, make sure the following are set:
- `PICTRS__STORE__TYPE=object_storage`
