# derivepassphrase-export-vault(1)
## NAME
derivepassphrase-export-vault – export a vault-native configuration to
standard output
## SYNOPSIS
````
derivepassphrase export vault [OPTIONS] PATH
````
## DESCRIPTION
Read the vault-native configuration at PATH, extract all
information from it, and export the resulting configuration to standard
output. Depending on the configuration format, this may either be a file or
a directory. Supports the vault "v0.2", "v0.3" and "storeroom" formats.
If PATH is explicitly given as `VAULT_PATH`, then use the
`VAULT_PATH` environment variable to determine the correct path. (Use
`./VAULT_PATH` or similar to indicate a file/directory actually named
`VAULT_PATH`.)
## OPTIONS
-f, --format FMT
: try the following storage formats, in order (default: `v0.3`, `v0.2`)
-k, --key K
: use K as the storage master key (default: check the `VAULT_KEY`,
`LOGNAME`, `USER` or `USERNAME` environment variables)
-h, --help
: Show this message and exit.
## ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
VAULT_PATH
: A default path, relative to the home directory, where to look for the
configuration to load.
VAULT\_KEY
: A password with which the vault configuration is encrypted. The
password is interpreted as a UTF-8 byte string.
LOGNAME, USER, USERNAME
: Fallback values for `VAULT_KEY`.
