Instantiating a driver
----------------------

To instantiate the driver you need to pass your key id and application key to
the driver constructor as shown below.

To access the credentials, you can login to
https://secure.backblaze.com/user_signin.htm, then click "App Keys" or go
to https://secure.backblaze.com/app_keys.htm directly.

``keyID`` serves as the first and ``applicationKey`` as the second argument to
the driver constructor.
