    // on linux: '/usr/bin/'
    // trailing slash is required
    'mysql' => [
        'dump_command_path' => '/Applications/MAMP/Library/bin/',
        'restore_command_path' => '/Applications/MAMP/Library/bin/',
    ],

    // s3 settings
    's3' => [
        'path'  => 'your/s3/dump/folder'
    ]

    //dropbox settings
    'dropbox' => [
        'accessToken' => DROPBOX_ACCESS_TOKEN,
        'appSecret' => DROPBOX_APP_SECRET,
        'prefix' => DROPBOX_PREFIX, //this is name of your dropbox folder
    ],
