Minio LDAP Integration

[girish]

Digging deeper I found this issue - https://github.com/minio/minio/issues/9837 . From there, I found that there is another admin UI for minio (?) - https://github.com/minio/console which looks way better than the current one. It's unclear to me why these are separate projects and how they are tied together.

There's some LDAP setup docs at https://github.com/minio/console/blob/master/DEVELOPMENT.md . Also this blog post - https://blog.min.io/new-minio-console/

@girish Wow that console UI looks great. Based on the publish date of that article and the current release tag on the console (0.7.0) it seems that it's a pretty new project. As far as being separate I can imagine wanting to have a very lightweight UI for the storage device itself and running the full-featured UI separately, especially if they're targeting k8s-like deployments.

"You’re one docker pull and three minutes of configuration away from a browser-based interface that taps into the most powerful features of the MinIO storage suite."

Nice find! Just "three minutes" work then

The more services I can use with LDAP, the better.

Agreed.

(And I still really want to be able to filter the app store by LDAP support and for Discourse and NodeBB to have LDAP added )

It would be awesome to have this lovely new Minio GUI available in Cloudron!

Agreed, I think we should open up a separate app request for this minio console.

It seems the latest minio release has deprecated/removed the old object browser and merged the console project into the main app.

@girish Huh... are you going to just update the current app or make a v2 app and keep the old one around?

[girish]

@atridad Hopefully, we don't need another app. It's confusing a bit because it seems the API and the UI run on different ports. Maybe they are trying to achieve some multi-domain style setup, not sure.

@girish Ahhh I see. Only reason I figured it might be needed is if their re-write makes updating difficult.

@baswaraj wrong community. Ask the minio devs.
