[Duplicity-talk] Read a tar from a pipe?

[Guillaume Filion]

Hi,

I'm trying to setup an offsite backup replication system. I mounted the
encrypted offsite filesystem to /var/backuppc-offsite/

Right now I'm doing this:
cd /var/backuppc/tmp/
rm -rf /var/backuppc/tmp/*
BackupPC_tarCreate -h andre -n 684 -s \* . | tar -x
duplicity --no-encryption /var/backuppc/tmp/ \
  file:///var/backuppc-offsite/andre/

I would like to use a pipe instead:
BackupPC_tarCreate -h andre -n 684 -s \* . | \
  duplicity --no-encryption tar file:///var/backuppc-offsite/andre/

I'm pretty sure that it's not possible to do with "stock" duplicity, but
I'm wondering if it would be at all possible and how hard it would be to
modify the code to do this.

Thanks a lot,
GFK's
