          printf "[default]\naccess_key = %s\nsecret_key = %s\nhost_base = nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\nhost_bucket = %%(bucket)s.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com" "$DO_ACCESS_KEY" "$DO_SECRET_KEY" > ~/.s3cfg
        env:
          DO_ACCESS_KEY: ${{ secrets.DIGITAL_OCEAN_STORAGE_ACCESS_KEY }}
          DO_SECRET_KEY: ${{ secrets.DIGITAL_OCEAN_STORAGE_SECRET_KEY }}

To add the secrets to your repository, go to settings -> secrets and variables -> actions. The URL is https://github.com/<user>/<repo>/settings/secrets/actions
